Good advice above. I have been traveling for business for decades & it is not an easy life. The hardest part to learn is that you have to listen. When you get home, wasted from typical travel abuse, you walk into a home where they have been cooped up. They will want to talk. They will want to tell you about their week, their successes, the weather, the dog puke they cleaned off the carpet etc etc etc. It is your job to listen - with particular attention to your spouse.

Now this might sound easy but it's not. They don't want to hear anything about your week. You have been the one 'out having fun'.

So my advice: shut up & listen.
