Right so I’ll try keep this short but honestly I’m seeing red and need to rant before I say summat I regret.
So last night, after tea, I said to DH can he nip Asda and grab nappies and some bits for packed lunches. He rolls his eyes but says fine, no biggie. Off he goes. Two hours later he still ain’t back. I ring him, no answer. Text, nothing. I’m sat here thinking he’s had a crash or been kidnapped.
He rocks up just after 9 with a bottle of wine and MIL in the bloody passenger seat! Apparently he “just popped in to check on her” and she was feeling “lonely” so they sat having a cuppa and she starts going on about how I’m “too snappy lately” and maybe I “need a break” and next thing he’s inviting her to ours for the night!
Doesn’t ask me. Doesn’t warn me. Just brings her round with her pyjamas and flipping slippers like it’s a spa weekend. I’d already had the kids down, house a tip, me in grotty leggings and hadn’t even had a minute to myself all day.
She sits on the sofa acting like Lady Muck, making hints about how “we need more family time” and how she’s “worried about the kids not getting enough routine” (?!). I nearly choked. This woman hasn’t done a school run in her life.
This morning DH says I was rude for being off with her. I’m sorry but who invites their mother to stay over midweek without asking their partner?? It’s not like we’re loaded with space, she slept in DS2’s room and he was up half the night.
I’m still raging. Am I being unreasonable or are they both taking the absolute mick?
Also side note: I did not get the nappies.
