Dh is mega busy at work, really stressed.
He's often in at 9 or 10 pm at the moment. Working hard.
Obviously though, this means I am too, looking after our 4 dc without support.
He just sent me email saying a friend is coming over to Munich on Saturday, he'd forgotten all about it (but never mentioned it when it was first discussed). We were supposed to be going for a (very rare) night out on Saturday. He is proposing he goes to meet his friend (12 noon) and meet me whereever for our night out.
Obviously all the Christmas preparations pass him by and I do everything, so presumably he is clueless as to how much needs doing, but I had already told him I'd need his help this weekend to get the house strightened etc (have guests arriving on Wednesday, and I always end up doing everything)
So, I understand he has been under a lot of pressure and deserves the occasional break ( he doesn't get that much time to himself, but then, neither do I).
He hasn't even suggested I could possibly come.
I feel really cross he wants the whole day off, right before Christmas, with no notice.
Normally I'd moan and grumble but let him go anyway, and just feel pissed off about it. I feel like chucking my toys out with the pram and saying not to bother about meeting me for our night out, as he'll be probably half pissed and tired by the time we're supposed to be meeting anyway. Plus, I'll have to get the house tidy all by myself, kids fed & ready for bed, all the organising again all by myself as usual.
Blimey, this has been a very long rant.
How do I handle it.
ps in he email he just stated that he'd forgotten & asked if we had plans, didn't apologise or ask if it was ok with me, I replied we should talk about it and he asked why?! Like he has no concept that I might be put out.
sorry for long rant
