I went away last week for two nights on a school residential trip. It was voluntary rather that work but my ds was there too.
DH stayed at home with other 3 DC. It had been planned for months.
Whilst we were away DH washed and shrank my only nice cashmere jumper. It was a recent birthday present. All my other clothes come from charity shops and I don't really have nice things as they get wrecked with our very busy life. I was cross with him. This morning MIL said oh "poor DH, you shouldn't be cross with him, he was only trying his best". This has irritated the crap out of me.
I hardly ever go away. I work part-time. I have all of our mental load. Before going away I organised everything so that meals were planned, activities sorted etc. It is hard work but you know what, I manage it every fucking day. If DH went away no one would bat an eye and I would still get everything done.
I appreciate that I have totally facilitated his inability to organise but ultimately I have standards and it would stress me more that those things weren't done so I do them myself (he has some redeeming features btw).
However I really don't think it's that hard to put a load of washing on and not ruin the only bloody nice thing I have. AIBU??
