Aibu regarding stag weekend

AIBU I’m soo angry at DH he’s going on a distant friends stag weekend away in Spain in the next few weeks he’s just told me he got the dates wrong and he’s leaving a day earlier. I work shifts and had arranged them so I would be at home to look after 3 DC. He’s told me to just call in sick but I can’t nor do I want to there’s no enough staff to cover me. I asked him numerous times well in advance when he was going away and when would he be back it’s not brain science.

He needs to sort the childcare on the extra day. Not your problem to solve. YANBU

Yep, he mucked up, he’s going away, he needs to arrange the childcare

This is on him. Id be using two words that rhyme with 'muck foff'.

If he wants to leave you to look after 3DC and buggers up things himself, after mis-arranging his own affairs, he can arrange to fix this mistake.

He's got a few weeks to sort childcare, so just make sure he does that.

Mistakes can be easily made so I wouldn't beat him up over it.

What's important is how he resolves it and expecting you to chuck a fake sicky, is not a resolution.

It’s an innocent albeit stupid mistake. I wouldn’t start world war three over it, just calmly tell him he’s responsible for arranging childcare on that date, if he can’t sort something then he’ll need to book a new flight and join the others a day later.
