What are you being unreasonable about today?

[ThomasRichard]

I’m grumpy because the house won’t de-Christmas itself, I have too much underwear for my drawers (pun unintentional), I’m fat and my house is full of chocolate and biscuits that I bought and my guests didn’t eat.

I’m fully aware that I’m being unreasonable about all of this. Anyone else joining me in the unreasonable corner today?

Feel less guilty that should say 😳

I had a days Al booked, DD was supposed to be in Nursery, DH in work I was going to catch up on the soaps under a blanket with the cat.

DDs come down with a nasty cough and cold so couldn't go into Nursery. I'm unreasonably upset about this

I've written a long to do list and it isn't magically doing itself. Ugh

I'm tired and need to have a sleep but the children don't go back until 8th JANUARY

The duvet on my side of the bed never has any cover in it - just the sheet. So every night I wake up freezing cold. And every night I fuck and fart about with it.

I've had my nails done and the colour is shitey pink/red which looks daft.

I think I’m half reasonable, half unreasonable. My dogs being a bugger today. He’s been in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out. Our living room is up a set of stairs so I’m up and down and up and down whilst DD really needs my attention.

DH says I’m unreasonable having not taken DD to school today, however having attended Drs surgery they sent her to be tested for Glandular fever, we were sent away from the blood clinic that we went to as for adults, finally found children’s, waited an hour sat to have blood test, blood ran out of DDs face, and she looked ready to puke.... nurse also thought I was BU.

Got home, made DD drink water- again I’m U.

Text MIL to tell her about DD, also my fault she’s unwell so often.... she suffers recurrent throat infections, had her tonsils out in September, she has had 3 throat infections since, one of which was over Christmas which is how this suspected glandular fever came about.

I am probably being U because everyone around me seems to think I am, but I feel like I could do with a bit less blaming to be honest!

I can’t get DS to nap unless I lay in bed next to him, and he wakes whenever I try to move. So I’ve spent most of my day stuck in bed trying to get a 5 month baby to sleep (he’s a nap resister). I’m achy, sore, desperate for a coffee and want to get some things done.

When DP comes Home, he will moan because I’ve spent most of the day in bed whilst he’s been out at work.

That’s my annoyance today.

I'm silently annoyed that my DH didn't come and say hello after he went for a wee at 3am when I was feeding DS.

I'm on a diet and have worked my arse off in the gym this morning, I'm now low on energy and feeling royally pissed off. Right now my ire is becayse my fucking amazon delivery due yesterday is still not fucking here today,

Proper bastards,

That dh isn't back at work yet he took a Lieu day and he has been off for a fortnight and quite frankly he is doing my nut in

@TheQueenOfWands

£34k from selling younique!!

I'm right behind with quelling an unreasonable response to that statement!

I had a shit Christmas, everyone ill and no one getting enough sleep. Missed all the fun stuff, barely left the house Feel like I spend 23 hours and 55 minutes tidying and cleaning every day, only for the mess to magically restore itself in the remaining 5 minutes.

Also still sulking because my 'big' birthday just didn't happen a few months ago, and now it seems it's just been forgotten Wake me up when it's spring, please!

I've done my make up all nice including red lipstick but the look is being ruined by my lower face which has turned into a moon after a month of baileys and chocolates and general fattening foods

I'm 37 weeks pg with dc1, hormonal and on day 2 of maternity leave. MIL just rang up to tell me she'd bought a second hand bouncy chair in a charity shop for £3 (hadn't previously asked if we needed one). I was polite and grateful on the phone but now unreasonably fuming because I spend loads of time yesterday reading reviews and had just settled on the expensive bouncy chair I want (not ordered it yet). Feeling massively unreasonable and ungrateful because apparently it's barely used and she's saved us lots of money but also hormonally because it's not the one I want and also I really like shopping!

Having less than 2 hours sleep last night (dreaded back to work fear) - First Bus still being on a Saturday service - having to put normal clothes back on and not just live in my pyjamas anymore - plus I'm currently giving my mug the death stare cos my biscuit fell in and it's ruined the biscuit and my cup of tea.

My Mum has been with us for almost a month and I am at biting point. Was sending an email today and she came and stood behind me in the study - did the old lady craning her neck forward bit, and started peering at my email. I turned round and said 'do you mind?' in my disapproving voice and she flounced off all offended.

She is fine when being taken out and about and deferred to all the time, but I am tired of being a dutiful daughter. I have moved house this year unexpectedly (in about 8 weeks flat, and then had most of September to clear out old house and hand back to the owners so we didn't get skinned by Belgian sharp practices when you move. I drove back to the UK to pick her up for Christmas, and was told that she considers it the height of rudeness to have the radio on in a car if you have a passenger (since when?). One long journey from the Devon/Cornwall borders to Dover without any music, and I preserved a solid silence to the point when I picked ds up from uni en route.

She gets up late (after she has been taken coffee in bed) then wonders why we don't go anywhere. She likes to go out for coffee several times a week, but I've been ill over Christmas, the weather hasn't been wonderful, and I have to drive for at least 10 minutes to buy her coffee when we have perfectly good coffee here?

She thinks I let my dh walk all over me; he thinks I let her walk all over me, so I might just get 'doormat' tattooed my my torso and lie on the floor the entire fucking time. We are driving her and ds back at the weekend, so a 14 hour journey on Saturday from Brussels to the West country, then back up with an overnight stop to Dover, and back over on Sunday. If previous trips are anything to go by, we won't get thanked for this, or for having her to stay for a month.

I'm being unreasonable because I'm cross that my to-do list hasn't done itself. I'm also really unreasonably irritated by ds having broken his leg on Christmas Eve . In my defence, he is in no pain whatsoever but keeps summoning me to do things for him. Hence the undone to-do list.

< to the PP whose DC don’t go back until the 8th! Sorry about not being bothered to re-caption it.

The house is nearly de-Christmas-ed but now I’m grumpy because:

• I have to heave the boxes back into the loft
• The DC are still in their pyjamas, having binge-watched How To Train Your Dragon all day —which I have encouraged because it means they don’t fight or want to play Twister—
• DS needs a haircut and his PE kit washed before school tomorrow and this hasn’t magically happened at any previous point over the holidays

You sound like me! I've made everyone do a proper clean and put Christmas decorations away. Dh is desperate to start the diet we're going on but there's so much Christmas food left.

my sister asked me if I'd like a couple of her very nice coats which are both too small for me, which is obviously entirely her fault

The bin collectors have YET AGAIN failed to turn up on the appointed day. Happens every Christmas/New Year - a slight change to the schedule and our road gets missed. But in order to complain to the council about it I have to register an account. WTF? Just empty the fuckers when you say you will!

Oh dear... is it wine o clock yet? I don't drink but guessing a few of you are regretting Dry January

My DP has sat on his hairy arse the past 9 days and hasn't lifted one finger round the house, he decided today that he was the spawn of Kim and Aggie and started spouting how much housework needs to b done WHILE STILL SAT ON HAIRY ARSE, thinks he's done a bit because he's done the recycling oh and I have lost my wand that will magically make the chicken dopiaza for tea for me

DH was given some sweets at Christmas and he decided one of the flavours wasn't nice so threw everything of that flavour in the bin. IN THE BIN! Instead of giving them to me. He threw out his own sweets! How very dare he!!!

Ive been sick all year (ok the last 3 days) hit a temperature of 40.8 last night and I feel utterly weak. Somehow house is not self cleaning and sorting itself out whilst I am feeling unwell.

I am also being unreasonable because my friend has decided not to come to our exercise class tonight and i was looking forward to seeing her and now she's staying at home. I unreasonably could decide to skip the class but I skipped two of the three classes in December '17 so I am feeling unreasonably guilty to have let down the instructor. If I duck out tonight I know tomorrow I'll wish I'd gone to the class.
