A simple little rant for a Friday.

[Bloomcounty]

I just need to release some steam, feel free to ignore.

Hubby has hurt his back and can't work. He's home, he's bored and he's irritating the HELL out of me.

I work from home (self employed), am chockablock and am panicking over everything that still has to be done before christmas. I'm also struggling with asthma at the moment, and am on steroids.

Struggling to breathe is making me a bit testy, I will admit.

He decides, this morning, whilst I'm in the middle of trying to organise work, life and appointments, to start teasing me, repeating everything I say in a stupid fucking voice and when I asked him to stop, carried on. I burst into tears. I haven't the breath to do anything else.

He gave me the wounded look, combined with the "what have I done NOW?" whine and then went off to sulk elsewhere. Halle-fucking-lujah.

Does anyone want to buy a slightly shop soiled husband? He's pretty good at gardening....

I will pass on the slightly shop soiled husband thanks!

Could he live out? I have a shed

I could do with a patio. Could shove him down before the cement?

When you're calm have a little chat about how overwhelmed you feel, hence why you don't appreciate his "playful" mocking.

Get yourself a drink OP and breathe

I hope your day gets better.

He sounds well enough to go back to work to me 😂

Seriously though, what an idiot. I hope you feel better soon.

Give him some of the organising to do and anything else he can do to help your work.

No takers? Seriously? I made him out to be such a bargain, too....lol

However, the shed IS a good idea.

I wish he was well enough to work, but I can see how twisted his spine is just now. He's got a session with his physio later and that man always sorts him out (in a very painful sort of way, so I can take a sadistic pleasure in knowing that it'll hurt the sarky bastard) so tomorrow he's going to be given a list of jobs and told to get on with it.

I think I shocked him, to be honest. He's just come up with a cuppa for me.

Yes, sounds like he needs something to do.

Are there any phone calls or online tasks that he can do?

But is he though, with a bad back?

Maybe you can get him to do all the writing out of cards or the online shopping or something. You need to give him tasks to do, to keep him out of mischief.

Ha! He's regretting it now.

I've just loaded the kitchen table with almost all of the christmas gifts and told him to wrap them. They'll look like shit but right now I don't give a toss. He needs to do them today as we're meeting family tomorrow that we won't see again, so need to hand them over then. I was stressing about them, and he can chuffing do it instead. That's him sorted for the next few hours.

I feel better already.
