to give DH a hard time about his hangover

DH has been away. His work Christmas thing is combined with some team meeting nonsense and goes on for days.

So he left Thursday morning and came back Saturday teatime. I was left with DSs (6&3)

We were supposed to be having quiet night on with DVD and he was going to cook.

He rang on Friday to say he had been invited round to a friend's house Sat night (a friend who wasn't going on their Lad's night out next week Hmm).

Actually I wasn't that bothered do said OK as long as he wasn't late, I could have my usual Sunday lie in etc.

He rolled in at 3am, is still over limit so can't take DS to his swimming lesson (asked me to).

He has got up with them and is currently making me a bacon sandwich but I'm still cross.

Now I've written it down it doesn't sound that bad but he could NEVER let me get away with such behaviour Confused

He owes you big time.

Worse things happen, but he's let you down. YANBU.

Next weekend is all yours. He's on DSs duty the whole weekend. Enjoy! Xmas Smile

So out of all you have said you are most annoyed about him coming in late, not getting a lie in and having to take DS swimming? In the grand scheme of things it's not so bad - and he has got up and is making you breakfast. I would get a night out with the girls planned quickly if i was you! He owes you at least that!

Just in case Jenai didn't make it clear.

He owes you big time. Smile

As a one-off, well, okay, fine.

But I'm struck by your comment that you could never get away with this... are you able to have as much of a social life as him? Are you allowed to 'mess up' once in a while?

I think it's that his night out last night wasn't strictly necessary - it wasn't an organised event, just a few drinks at his house.

I'm going out the Saturday before Christmas. That is my ONLY night out. I was so invited out the night before but declined as I didn't think it fair to go out 2 nights in a row.

I may change my mind Grin

You go girl!!!

The only thing I would be annoyed with would be if he really didn't let you get away with such behaviour.

I also gave him a hard time earlier in the evening after I saw his text message to his friend that he 'couldn't get his pass signed til 8:30) Confused

I may make him do the 4 year old's party in the village hall. Grin

Um yeah, definitely take that second night out!

StuntGirl · 09/12/2012 09:34

Wouldn't let you get away with it? What is this bollocks?

I just mean he'd give me a hard time - and probably would have asked me not to go on the optional night out.

Actually he did ask me not to go on the second night out as it was so close to Christmas.

Make him do the party. It'll be hell for him
