My husband has an important work thing tomorrow and also gets an important promotion. His family are staying here this weekend as a result. This has meant a lot of work for me in the run up, shopping for extra plates, bedding etc and arranging where everyone will sleep, food everyone likes etc. plus a spring clean of the house, which is, admittedly usually kept clean but not particularly tidy.
I also had a LLETZ procedure at the end of last week, my second in 5 weeks and am supposed to take it easyish the week after. The day I had it DH did come with me as I needed someone to look after our toddler, but went straight back to work afterwards.
This week he's done little to help, never offering or just doing things but asking what I want him to do. Last night he went out, leaving me with loads to do. I was at Asda shopping at 10pm the night before and today he wanted the car so I was in Asda again while the dinner was in the oven. Then, after I'd cooked for 12 people he kept saying how tired he was as he'd been up since half past five. So have I. I started clearing and washing up and he asked if I wanted help while dramatically yawning! I have now just spent an hour clearing up while he's in bed.
Now I've just come up to get a load of washing to put in to find he's left a huge pile of dirty laundry in the room my PIL are staying in!!!!! I had asked him to finish sorting the room out while I got dinner in the oven.
I feel like he's been really selfish and I don't want to stand in the freezing cold in uncomfy shoes (due to loose dress code) to support such a selfish arse.
