DH is hoovering...

[rainbowsonasunnyday]

So, DH is hoovering the house as I type and I've already hoovered today?!!

LTB.

Leave him to it. When he's done, hand him the mop.

Well I don't know what he's hoovering?! I already told him I hoovered today and surely he heard me?!

Is he that bored?

Maybe he misheard and thought you said can you do the hoovering.

His attempt at being passive aggressive had backfired this time.

Pass him the mop and then tell him the bathroom needs a good scrub too.

Should keep him out from under your feet for half an hour

Is he normally like that?

What’s he broken...

If I said anything I'd be told I am imagining it...

So I'm going along with it and he is going to end up cleaning the whole house again.

Then leave the housework to him if he is trying to prove he is better at it than you

I honestly don't care who is better but, I do clean pretty well. I don't think it's about that I think he's just trying to piss me off.

Um... I hoover every day. Cats and kids.

Wow, I wish my husband did housework when he was pissed off! Definitely encourage this behaviour. Have a glass of wine while he cracks on.

Or send him to me if he's really keen on doing extra cleaning 👍

Does he try and piss you off frequently, not necessarily about housework? Is this just during lockdown?

I too am loving the idea of a passive aggressive cleaning spouse. I would be sure to piss him off on a regular basis.

Have you had a brand new super hoover , that he just can't resist using.

@Lucked I'm liking your thinking!! 😂

He's not happy now he's carrying on cleaning the house and I've spent all day cleaning. Moved him on from hoovering to polishing. I mean, who doesn't notice the place is spotless?!

I've just got my nail varnish out.

@ineedaholidaynow yes I think he does. He's waiting for me to get upset and tell him I've already cleaned the house. I'm not falling for it this time I'm just letting him crack on.

The only reason I could think of for some one being passive aggressive by doing the house work is that you have done similar to him. Has he recently told you he has done something and you have either done it again or changed what he has already done?
If you think he is being passive aggressive than I can only assume that you known the reason why he would be and if you honestly dont than I am surprised that you are accusing him.

Has he moved furniture as well ? That’s proper hoovering

Tell him he missed a bit

@Cheeseandwin5 I know why yes. Because earlier I said something to him about how he was behaving with a client in our business and he really doesn't like being told anything.

After 15 years I know him. He is totally incapable of communicating he just does stuff like this to upset me then denies denies and makes me feel like I'm imaging it.

He's already started getting pissed off because I didn't stop him from cleaning and say I've already done it. He hasn't managed to upset me.

How on earth can you clean a house and not notice there is actually no dirt. How do you hoover up nothing and not notice? How do you polish glass surfaces and not notice they are sparkling clean?
