AIBU this weekend is mine and my dh's birthdays.
It is a big one for him, so therefore I've organised a party for him on the day, and other bits for the following week.
He is renowned for being useless where gifts/acknowledgements for me are concerned. His most spectacular failure was the year our youngest child was born the week before christmas, I got no flowers or anything for the birth, I got no Christmas card/gift, I got no birthday card/gift, I got no valentines card/gift. We had words!!!
That was 6 years ago, he's improved, but still room for improvement (I always get a card now).
Now he's been saying, for the last 2 weeks, I've not done anything or got anything for your birthday, do I have to, and I said 'dont feel you have to, but if you would like to it would be very much appreciated'.
Now my best mate knows how useless he is, and has booked at lunchtime for my family to go to the cinema as a birthday treat (bless her she's also bought me a spa day very spoilt by her makes up for my dh!!!)
Anyway here's the AIBU part, I've just said to dh that he's been saved having to think of something for my birthday as we can go to the cinema.
His response - do we have to ds has football in the morning, then there's housework to do, then there's my party in the evening, why do we have to do SO much in one weekend.
Because it is MY birthday, I don't want to do housework on my birthday, football is at 8am finished at 9am. Cinema is 30 minutes away at 12.30pm - 2 hour film - home by 3pm. Party at 8pm.
AIBU???
If I am I will reschedule cinema.
