To be annoyed that DH has spent the day cleaning his car!

[SameShitDifferentDay1]

We got back of holiday yesterday evening with our 2DS.

Today, I unpack and put away the clean cloths. Two lots of washing done, pegged out. Then do a big food shop and put it all away. As well as sorting out the two DS.

Whilst he spends the whole day cleaning his car!

AIBU to be a bit annoyed by? Oh but he did bring a shopping back in 🙄

I don't see how the dh cleaning the car is 'a hobby'.

Ordinarily, it wouldn't be. But anyone who can string a job out for SIX HOURS which even in an extreme state of filth might possibly take an hour for anyone else, could be said to be either taking the piss, or enjoying it.

But Jassy he isn't intending to do anything that benefits the whole family today either. It's totally unreasonable for him to expect to be able to do exactly what he wants for 2 days when the op isn't having the same luxury.

Sandy, I totally agree with you - I was quoting another poster but messed up the italics.

I agree with octopus that when it crosses the line from 'get car functionally clean and tidy' to 'my car is my precious and I prioritise spending lots of time and possibly money on detailing it, to the point where I spend seven hours in two days getting it just right', is where it crosses the line from 'family chore, necessary to maintain the car' to 'hobby'.

Doing the car as a family chore would involve a quick Hoover and wash down. 2 hours max
