Backstory: myself, Dh, dd1 is 21, dd2 is 19 on Saturday, and our 3yo rescue dog.
We've had dog nearly 2 years, at the time dh had a job that meant he was at home around lunchtime, so dog was company and motivation to exercise for him. Last year was made redundant and new job is long hours.
But between us all, both dds have varying shift patterns and 2 days off midweek, and dd1 boyfriend, and a dog walker if needed, we can manage walks in the day, I generally do evening walk.
However dd1 never gives her a decent walk, 10 minutes round the block at best, and often late in the day. She promises time and again that she'll get up and take her to one of the many local parks or green area for at least an hour but never does.
Example: today she is off, complained about having to be awake to let the cleaners in at 8.30 on her day off, she has the next 4 days off. Took her round the block this morning saying she was going to take her out for a good walk later. 5.00 o'clock and she still hasn't gone out! She did the same on Tuesday when she didn't have to be at work until 5.00, said she forgot I had asked her and got her friend to come round and take her. I've already told her if she won't walk her I'll need the dog walker and extra day and I'll be putting up her housekeeping to cover the extra cost.
But she's let me down again, Saturday is her birthday, she wants to have a family meal, 7 people, at the restaurant where she works, she gets discount but it will still be quite expensive, she then is planning to go out in the evening and wants to pre drink at home with friends. AIBU in saying no to both the meal and drinks at home, because I feel really pissed of at the moment.
Apologies for long ranty post.
