Or maybe I am. I dunno. This is, I must warn you, very, very petty. But it has climbed right up my nose.
So - daughter is at Guides. As normal I dropped her off there, dh is picking up. Dh asks what we are doing for dinner (this was a couple of hours ago, by the way). I suggest a take away, what with it being Friday, payday, and I can't be arsed to cook. And neither can he. OK, he says, ?I'll get it when I pick up daughter.
So 10 minutes before he was due to leave he asked son adn I what we would like to eat. Son says "Oh, can we get a burger from somewhere? I would prefer that to KFC". DH says, "No, the burger place is 12 miinutes drive away, and KFC is just around the corner." I jokingly said "So what you meant to ask was, what do we want from KFC". At which point dh said "Well, I can't be bothered anyway, if nobody WANTS to go to KFC I just won't get anything."
So basically we go to where he wants or do without - which in a way is fair enough, if he is going to get then it is fair that he gets final say on whre we are going. But despite the rest of the fasmily then saying "Oh, if you wanted to go to KFC that is OK, we can have that" he is still insisting that since we didn't all jump at the idea immediately then he can't be bothered to get it. So when he gets back from collecting DD I suspect ?I am going to have to sort something out. Again - would have been fine if 2 hours ago he hadn't said he would pick us up a takeaway on the way home.
I am feeling grrr. And a bit fed up of his sodding sulking.
