Bloody dh and his martyr act

He's currently engaged in what can only be described as a spring clean. He's had enough of the Christmas mess. He's huffing and puffing that everywhere is dirty and untidy because 'I never do it'. Hmm

I know I'm a sahm but I have been stupidly busy all month. I volunteer at the school four days a week, the shopping, housework and dog walking doesn't do itself, and dds birthday party and Christmas didn't bloody well happen on their own either. I am knackered and have had a few couple of lie-ins and just need a break and all he sees is me sitting here doing nothing.

AIBU to shove the duster up his arse?

I've got the opposite problem. I'm a SAHM and I like being busy. Dd and dh like slouching about doing nothing and I've got cabin fever and am going slowly mad.

What a cheeky sod next time it's his day off write a list of all you do in a day leave him with the kids and sod off until its home time n tell him you expect it all done as its nothing Shock

I second the vileda Lem and Chip you made me laugh

We've just moved and are waiting for the new dishwasher my DH has done the washing up 3 times in a day and not a large amount he flounced in dropped the tea towel over the sofa and said all dramatic like that's enough washing up for me. I'm not doing anymore I nearly strangled the cheeky sod with the wet tea towel on my niace new cream sofa arm !!!

My DP has just gone, all excited like 'come see baubles come see'

I follow him and he's cleaned the bathroom whilst I was sleeping.

Now I'm glad and all and he was cute but seriously?! I do it all the time. In fact it's the first time he's done it in 6 months.

My dh does lots of cleaning etc but tbh if he was doing it in a huff I'd let him get on with it. Childish behaviour but at least the housework is getting done!

WhenSantaGotStuckUpACunnyFunt · 28/12/2013 18:11

Oh yes, I can relate to this. DP is quick to moan when things haven't been done but doesn't notice when they have been done Xmas Hmm

MooseBeTimeForSnow · 28/12/2013 18:21

My DH can be like this. He'll never comment on the stuff I have done. Always picks up on the stuff I didn't get time to do whilst wrangling 2 year old DS.

I started to clean the fridge dh started to help

I said you pass the shelf
You can lift out the shelves by lifting up

Then I said 14 fucking years and you have never ever cleaned out the fridge have you

14 fucking years . I am not a sahm either
14 years

The lazy bastard

I didn't know who to me pissed of with him or me for being that fuck

MrsMangoBiscuit · 28/12/2013 18:39

Ha ha, I love the A4 medal print out! I keep threatening DH that I will get DD1s craft box out and make him a chufty badge! Xmas Grin

ManifestoMT · 28/12/2013 18:39

Fucking stupid

Hassled · 28/12/2013 18:43

I'm at the "get the fuck out of my way, all of you, so I can shift all this shite without you cluttering the place up further" stage. I've been hoovering around people too long now.

Snoopingforsoup · 28/12/2013 18:53

This was my DP yesterday; wouldn't sit still, grumbled about toys being messy, place being messy. He needs to get back to effing work.

We're seriously considering separation after his master fuckwittery yesterday.

He's threatening a deep clean of the lounge tomorrow which would be ace if it was just done quietly and without some sort of aggressive teen style strop!

Ilovemydogandmydoglovesme · 28/12/2013 19:26

Oh dear Snoop Xmas Grin

On the plus side I'm making a turkey madras so things are looking up.
