Flip

AIBU?

AIBU to start a grumpy old woman Christmas grumble- you don't have to be old, just grumpy.

I'll start.
I am 37 weeks pregnant with first baby. Due to start maternity leave next Friday. Supposed to be our first and only Christmas alone and at home.
DH driving me mad- would like him to live on another planet at the moment. No decorations up because I can't be arsed and don't want them up. Have hardly got him anything and don't want to. Am thinking of suggesting he goes to PIL in Yorkshire for Christmas and leaves me alone with the cats and a couple of pizzas except he will be so upset if I do.
Have found myself in two Secret Santas at work- hate things like that. I don't like Christmas dinner. People keep sending cards and they are just clutter. I never send them except to very close friends and family. Today we got one that said on the envelope To 17 and inside From 42. WTF! To get the presents for these Secret Santas I will have to go to Boots in town. The traffic is awful. This week at work is all jolly events with people being nice to the faces of people they can't stand all year.
Please don't say it is my hormones- although I hope it is because usually I love DH to bits but for the last 3 weeks I have been unable to hear or see him without becoming irrationally pissed off.
Apart from that, I am looking forward to the break

I hope you give birth before Christmas or bloody hell you're going to ruin it

Oh yeah, late pregnancy hormones have kicked in for you big time Lulu. Have you got to the stage where him simply walking into the room in which you are in, pisses you right off?

Lordy be let's hope it is the hormones - a trip to Boots is a walk in park compared to what's coming next!

I know

This is how bad I am. Today he was tying his shoe laces and it was annoying me.

Now he is googling the best Christmas puddings and telling me about them. I am going up to bed in the spare room where I have turned off the heating because I can't stand warm bedrooms.
