We've brought the kiddos away for the weekend and are sharing a hotel room.

We were late getting on the road yesterday because it takes her so long to get ready. Today, we're probably going to miss breakfast anywhere because it's taken her over 45 minutes to put her face on and I've had to do everything (tidying round/packing up- we're checking out today and staying with family tonight, getting the kids ready) while she sat there doing makeup.

Aibu to be a bit annoyed? It's the same every time we go anyway!

You say it'll cause issues if you pull her up on it/leave, but it IS causing issues. Children are missing breakfast.

It doesn't matter what her reasons are. If she wants to spend 45 minutes putting her face on fine, but not at the inconvenience of other people.

Gone 10 when you started the thread and she was still putting on make up
You still had to drive In to town to find somewhere for breakfast

Poor kids must have been ravenous

Close enough to go on holiday together

Not close enough to have a light chat about working together to get out the door at a decent time that suits everyone

FFS - if you’re not going to do anything about it then what’s the point of moaning?

Or you could grow a damn backbone and tell her you’re leaving without her! Jesus Christ…

Yanbu but I wouldn’t go away with her again

Go to breakfast with the children, without her.

Erm - bit late for breakfast advice for December
