Roast chicken is in the oven, cooked . Baked potatoes are done. Salad just needs to be chucked in bowl. I am working (and yes, online a bit). Dh is sitting on sofa after an afternoon nap. DS needs to be fed. Groceries need to be packed away. Washing is outside and will probably be raining shortly.

Yes, I did ask DH to sort stuff out. He did not reply because he is also online (bit of theme here).I know i am NOT being unreasonable, but I need a sort of safe space to S C R E A M.

Thanks.

Tell him to sort the food out and you'll get the washing in.

I would be saying:

Ok DH dinners ready. Will you sort the salad and plate up or get
The washing in? Choice is yours. We'll put the shopping away together after dinner

I took hiddenhome and Pascha's advice and it seems that all is well! :)

DH tried and tried to start a fight, but I smiled and cooed.

Why do you mums take it upon yourselves to try and do everything. The more you do the less they will do and the more they will expect. Remind him you are in a partnership. Not his mother !!

Granny, good point. Best I leave it tonight as "D"H is clearly looking for a fight tonight and I just cannot be arsed. Too busy, too tired, too much to do. I am a childminder and I am being inspected soonish by OFSTED so my attention is diverted from DS and DH. H seems to think that I am being unreasonable by trying to get outstanding from OFSTED. He seems to see it as a personal affront that I take my work seriously.

Odd, but there you go. What you get from marrying someone too different from you. But that's another thread.

I will just plod on tonight and ignore the twat.
