All week my husband has been telling me on Saturday he is getting up early and taking DD(9&10) to see his dad. I like his dad but he is hard work and I get stressed in his tiny flat with all of us there. We both work full time but he works away most of the week and I am on my own being full time mummy/maid/taxi. The chance of a few hours to myself really made me feel like he understood how exhausting it can all be. I felt he was making a big effort and I was so excited. I cleaned the whole house. Sorted all the washing. Went food shopping and took cate of everything. All so i could give myself permission to stay in bed and watch Netflix without feeling guilty. Then this morning after the children woke up he didn't get up. He played on his phone in bed. This continued as they got up and made themselves breakfast and got dressed. They were looking forward to seeing their granddad. 12pm rolls around and he has done nothing. He then tells me he is not going but will get up soon and take the children out. By this point all my plans are over. I'm gutted and just get in the shower. I am furious that he can't take cate of his own children and that I didn't get a little bit of time to myself. When I tried to explain why I was upset he said I'm getting up and will take them out now. Why are you mad? I haven't asked you for anything. Am I overreacting?
