To hate weekend mornings/days

Literally every weekend day, DH gets up, goes downstairs and lounges around on the sofa falling asleep until we decide to do something. It annoys me so bad as i am running around doing breakfast, sorting clothes out etc. He tells me this is what everybody does on a weekend morning. I like Mon-Fri as he has to go to work so I dont have to witness it but my god I have never seen the guy rush, if he was any more laid back he would fall over. It really angers me looking at him snoring to the point my blood is boiling and I dont understand why it gets me like this, obviously he think IABU.

My Dh works a 4 day week, he’s out the house from 4am until around 6.30/7pm. He works on his laptop on a Friday but generally doesn’t move from the couch, it annoys me sometimes but normally sat/sun he is great with the kids and does everything for the family. I think if he was only home sat/sun and he had a day on the couch it would annoy me a lot more so I understand your frustration, your not being unreasonable.

Sorry but no, working Monday to Friday is not an excuse to sack off your family and not engage / help at the weekends.
Working full time is not the be all and end all of a life, especially not for a man with a family.
I’ve been at work all day on a Friday doesn’t mean you can ignore your kids on a Sunday morning.
He should spend some time with his children in the mornings when he gets the chance to, in fact he should want to!
