To be upset with DH

[Curiousmum69]

So we booked a weekend away in a caravan back in January. So not like it was short notice.

Anyway DH came home last night and told me that he forgot to book annual leave and only just realised. Now it's too late and his leave won't be approved.

So off he's gone to work today. Leaving me to take our 4 DCs away. He will come up tomorrow and stay one night and then has to come back Sunday for work Monday.

I was really looking forward to a family break. But now I just want to tell him to not even bother coming.

I know people forget things. But this just seems so unfair on us all.the DCs were really looking forward to him coming and my youngest is really upset.

I guess I'll just have to suck it up and go alone. Which will be fine but not what I was expecting iyswim.

Would anyone else's DH just forget to book leave ?

This would infuriate me, and my DH has come close to doing it in the past, in his younger days.

I was always pretty organised with my holiday when I worked in a large firm and needed to be. He always had me fretting that either he would forget to book his annual leave, or he would leave it so late that it would be refused.

He came close a couple of times, but luckily for him it always worked out, just about. I would certainly have given him a real ear-bashing if it ever hadn't.
