Before I get started, I know it's Christmas... There are parties/drinking. Fine.
DH and I both had our work do last night. It was a big night, both quite drunk. Babysitter with DS, all fine.
DH had a lunch today, he said he wouldn't be out late (we are hosting a Christmas lunch - for his friends - here for 15 tomorrow).
Anyway, he is silent all day. No word. I finally managed to get hold of him at 11pm, he has been passed out on the tube and was in Watford, end of the line. He assured me he'd get the tube back into town and make his way home.
I have just spoken to him. He is now at the other end of London. He passed out on the tube again. I suggested he call his parents and crash at theirs, which he is going to do, they live very close to where he has ended up.
I'm now going to have a three hour round trip on my hands tomorrow to collect him. He was supposed to be dropping DS with his parents for the weekend, which still needs to happen, but I'm going to need to do that, and collect husband.
Am I wrong to be absolutely furious with him? He has left me with shit loads to do, on my own, because he can't control his drinking.
This is just the latest in a string of alcohol related arguments. DH is verbally/emotionally abusive when pissed, and was vile to me on the phone just now.
Is this good enough reason to give him an ultimatum? Drink, or me? He has admitted twice in recent months that he knows his drinking is a problem and that he would curb it. No sign of that happening at all.
