Spent most of the day cleaning. Just finished mopping the floors not long ago and DP proceeds to brush the crumbs of his cherry bakewell directly on the floor Angry
Grrrrrrrr!

By breathing... I'm an irrational, pregnant, hormonal mess so today he can't do anything right. Poor bloke.

Mine has been awake early today and yesterday, by early I mean 6am.
Gets up, goes to the loo, makes tea, feeds the cat and brings his tea (and mine) back to bed. Then proceeds to sit in bed with his iPad doing work stuff. He has headphones in but naturally I'm awake now (and did mutter 'you could have just gone in the study with your tea and worked there'. I just wanted to have a lie in, even 7.30am would have served the purpose.
I think I'm just annoyed because we're both back at work tomorrow after two weeks off and have that 'back to work' Sunday feeling.
However I've forgiven him as he's been out to fill my car with petrol and bought nice wine for Sunday lunch and cream to go with a homemade treacle tart he made an hour ago.

Sent me a message 'Do you mind if I go for a weekend away with after Jan pay day?'

We spend yesterday looking for a weekend away for ourselves that weekend.

I don't have any mates to go away with without him.

Neverender · 03/12/2017 12:44

Mine has just woken up and then run himself a lovely bath. It's 12:44 FFS!?

LondonLassInTheCountry · 03/12/2017 13:31

Nothing. Its my birthday today. And im ill at the moment. Cant hold my head up longer than 15 minutes at a time.
Partner is long term poorly. But he done his best ordering gifts online for me and got a taxi there and back to struggle around the supermarket to buy all my favourite sweets and chocolate
I feel bad as i could only spend 10 minutes with him before having to go back to bed.
But his so lovely

lirpaloof · 03/12/2017 13:55

Refused to consider that smoking 20 a day might be contributing to his ongoing and much complained about sinus problems 😡

TroubleinDaFamily · 03/12/2017 13:59

Breathing in...................... and breathing out. Angry

He is normally the best in the world, but today is he is an arse.

CrabappleCake · 03/12/2017 14:21

He’s got allergies that mean he’s turned into a hypochondriac who has to cough dramatically and walk ver slowly while sighing in a really irritating manner.

And he’s invited his kids all round for tea with their other halves and his ex but is obviously building up to saying he’s too ill to cook.

LockedOutOfMN · 03/12/2017 14:22

Stayed in bed until 3.30pm 🙄

DuchessofManchester · 03/12/2017 14:32

Being overly picky about our new Christmas decorations. We're having a change this year and everything I like is the wrong shade of white apparently Hmm.

Taylor22 · 03/12/2017 14:49

Didn't get me an advent calendar.
It's not about actually having an advent calendar.

It's that I found him a beer one and just like always I thought of him.

It's just the realisation that nobody in the world is thinking of me in little ways. That while I spend every second of every day working to try and make my family a little happier. Nobody appreciates or considers me in the most tiny insignificant way.

Talcott2007 · 03/12/2017 15:10

About to set off in the car this morning and DH turned on the windscreen wipers just as I was opening the passenger door resulting in all the water hitting me in the face!!! Tbf it wasn't on purpose and now several hours later is actually quite funny!!

MamaMotherMummy · 03/12/2017 15:10

Taylor22 time to start getting demanding.

In all honesty, I can't BELIEVE some of the crap people are putting up with. I'd be having tantrums, strikes etc until he stood up and acted like a man, not a little boy with no responsibilities.

If it all falls apart, LET IT, just like he would. Otherwise you will be shouldering the responsibilities of EVERYTHING, for EVER!

How much anger, sadness, disappointment, frustration, rage are you having to swallow for these man-children?!

Taylor22 · 03/12/2017 15:22

Thank you. I just want to clarify though he is an amazing father and wonderful partner. I just need to ask.
Birthday and Christmas are amazing.

It's just the other 363 days where I feel a bit forgotten. It's kind of like it's OK she's fine she sorts everything out.
But sometimes I want a thank you, I want a small nod to the every day stuff I go out of my way to do.
I'm doing that stuff for the praise I'm doing it because I love them and when they are happy I get satisfaction out of that.
But to know he's walked in and out of shops and not thought oh right better get her one.
Or even grabbing me some shitty flowers now and again.
I can't list one thing he does wrong. So I need to stop moaning about my firsts world problems lol
It just made me feel a bit down.

strugglingtodomybest · 03/12/2017 15:36

Mine farted so much in bed this morning that I had to get up because I could barely breathe.

ParadiseCity · 03/12/2017 15:40

Mine has been caring and thoughtful all day, he is desperate for me to cheer up, I am feeling really down and somehow DH being supportive is really fecking annoying.

scrabble1 · 03/12/2017 15:43

DH woke up late. I had done all the morning chores, as usual. Then when he appeared, he demanded we leave right then or we would be late !

CarrieBradshaw85 · 03/12/2017 15:47

Refused to tickle my toes after I'd made a roast dinner,done all the washing up and cleaning.

Worriedrose · 03/12/2017 15:50

Feel very sad for a lot of people on here.
How utterly depressing to feel this way.

QuietNinjaTardis · 03/12/2017 15:53

Yesterday told me that for xmas his pa was going to be buying me tickets for a show that I'd like to see. Because he's soooo busy he can't do it himself. But not too busy that he can't sit and build houses on minecraft with ds. I bet you a hundred million pounds he will also forget that a hotel and babysitter will be needed for us to be able to see this show.
Today he abandoned hoovering (it really really needed to be done and I was helping ds with his homework) to take our daughter outside on her bike. So I had to do it.
He's just generally doing my head in at the moment with utter lack of thought for me.
Unless it's something he wants to do then it's not on his radar.

QuietNinjaTardis · 03/12/2017 15:55

Pretty much feeling how Taylor22 is at the mo.

IndieTara · 03/12/2017 16:07

Mines text to tell me he has a 'poorly tummy'
FFS he's 52!

Dashper · 03/12/2017 16:09

Tried to discuss things I am normally perfectly happy to discuss. I have raging PMT.
He's out with DS so I'm feeling quite fond of him right now.

ImogenTubbs · 03/12/2017 17:19

Leaving me for 9 days for a work trip.
