I am fecking livid and feeling extraordinarily sorry for myself all at the same time.
Basically, I sahm, and dh is self employed, works all over the place, random hours, goes away, no two days are the same sort of gig.
The dc are at primary school.
Anyway, nice day here, sun is out and I thought I'd make the most of it because there has been so much rain, with more to come, so I'd go out and do some gardening.
Meanwhile, school phoned here on the landline and on my mobile to say ds was feeling poorly and could I bring him home.
Well - I didn't hear those calls.
So they phoned dh and when he couldn't get hold of me either, he decided to leave work, come home on the bus (45 minutes) and collect ds from school.
When it started to rain and I came in from the garden, I picked up a call from school and said yes I'll come and get ds (we live 5 minutes walk away).
Met dh bringing ds home while I was on my way down to school!
Dh was very arsey with me for not having my mobile out in the garden.
I said fuxake, do I have to be at everyone's beck and call every minute of the chuffing day?
If I am not there to pick up the slack re. childcare then suddenly everyone is terribly inconvenienced, but does he appreciate me for being there to take care of this sort of thing normally? Does he my arse.
I really truly feel like fucking off on my own for a couple of weeks .
