I have been trying to work through lockdown. When I say trying, I REALLY mean trying. I am used to working from home, but not with a house full of people. There is no dedicated space that I can use. Nowhere to hide.
Despite my DH not being able to work he has not wanted to help with schoolwork with our youngest DC. I can't work and do it. Given I'm the only one working I kind of need to do it. He has found it really hard to be motivated to do anything. There are loads of things that need doing and he's been sat watching crap tv.
He goes back to work tomorrow. And today (when I have a massive deadline, and should be working on that TBH rather than venting on here)... TODAY he has decided to clear out his wardrobe. Queue constant interruptions by our youngest DC (always aimed at me) and yet another space I could have used to hide away out of action (bedroom, not wardrobe 😂).
I don't know if it's an AIBU or just a vent, but surely I should have had more support during this? It means me having to work into the night AGAIN or over the weekend to catch up. I would LOVE to be able to lay in bed until 11am every day FFS.
He is normally really hard working, working all the hours. I get this is an opportunity to recuperate but seriously? He has been cooking dinner and some hoovering/tidying but that is about it. I'm shattered. Is it just me going through this?
