My wife is pretty good about it year after year. I do get the "you are never home" thing at least once this time of year but we hash it out and I reasure her that she and the kids are first and foremost to me. She knows that hunting is my passion next to my family so things usually go my way at this time of year as long as I spend the needed time at home. Heck, my oldest boy talks about hunting all the time so soon it will be him and I in the woods all the time and shortly after his little brother so mom will have some free time to do what she wants!!!
