I started a caring job in late August just after my DDs 1st birthday to bring some extra income in.
The job involves early mornings (usually start at 7:30am) it takes me on average 15 minutes to drive to my first call depending on where about it is.
DP is a farmer and works where we live so has no commute. This week, work have rostered me to do my first calls for tomorrow, Wednesday and Thursday for 7 am in a village 15 mins away.
This means that I have to get up at 5 am get myself AND DD up and dressed, washed if necessary fed and in the car etc. I then have to drop DD off at my mums at 6:30am so that I leave enough time to transfer car seat into her car etc and still get to my call on time.
My DD (16 months) has been poorly for weeks now with a cold an i can't help but think that getting up early on these cold mornings can't be helping. It's taking its toll on my mum too! I suggested to DP perhaps he could meet my mum at the end of our road with DD at a better time to which he scoffed and said no way!!!
AIBU after all of the times I've driven a 100 mile round trip to pick his DD 4 (my DSD) up so that he could spend the weekend with her to be so upset about the fact that he won't take 15 minutes out of his day to help everybody out and let DD sleep a bit longer.
He will happily drive the 100 mile round trip to pick his DD up if her DM wants to go out drinking but when I ask such a tiny fucking favour I get told NO. And I'm going out to help provide for his two kids and make sure they have a lovely Xmas (which by the fucking way I will be working for NO extra pay even though I get paid an absolute pittance anyway).
AIBU I needed to rant I'm sorry
