I came home at 4:30 today, to find DH lying on the sofa, while there was water all over the floor from the fridge leaking. This has happened before, leaking fridge, and even when I was on crutches DH either didn't notice the water all over the floor or didn't care to clean it up.
Then I said "ok, now it's really time to get a new fridge" because it was way more water than usual, and was leaking from the back this time, not overflowing inside. So I went online to buy a fridge.
Meanwhile DD wanted to go outside to play. This requires an adult because we live on an estate and DD is 6. DH wanted to go in the bedroom and take a nap. WTF? I told him no, he had to take DD out while I sort out the fridge. He was not pleased about this.
Sorry to vent but it just pisses me off. DH has health problems and can't work but he has plenty of energy to read books, do his own thing all day, but when it comes to either household chores or childcare, he just wants to sleep.
After I ordered a new fridge (that we can't afford, more stress), DH went to sleep for 3 hours. I am so sick of him napping for 3-4 hours the same 3-4 hours that DD is home from school. Or is it me? Should I be more understanding because he is ill?

AIBU?
to be angry that DH doesn't care about household problems?
