DH is seriously annoying me today but I can't say anything because he's still pulling his weight!!
Yesterday morning there were 3 jobs that needed doing - dishwasher, putting a load of washing on and one to hang out, and sweeping up. DSD volunteered to sweep up, DH told her to wait because he was going to dust and polish all the surfaces first. Not entirely necessary and we were heading out later that morning but no problem. Until he spent so long getting it perfect that I had to do the rest of the (necessary) housework by myself because he was doing something less urgent.
Same again today and it's driving me bonkers! There are jobs that I have asked him to do that have been bothering me for weeks (clean out the tortoise tank before we bring the tortoise in for the season - currently living in the garden, and putting some big items of his into the shed that are currently sat in the kitchen). He's now in the garden doing a bonfire - yes that needs doing at some point but he can't seem to prioritise!! Leaving me to make all the beds with the clean sheets.
I feel like IWBU to tell him that he still needs to sort the rest of it out tonight, because by the time he is done with the bonfire it will be late and he will be knackered. We both work long hours during the week so only do the bare minimum then, so it will wait till next weekend.
I'm going to have a bath and curl up in bed with a book, but would IBU to not make up DSD's bed so that when he goes to put her to bed in an hour he has to do it himself?
Driving me bloody crazy!!
