Honestly, it drives me mad. Firstly, he takes the day off work for no reason at all.
Okay, then he gets up with the children(early risers) but when I come out he is asleep on the sofa and they are watching television.
I wake him up, tell him how angry I am!
He says sorry love, I am exhausted.
Exhausted says I! You only have one day off a week, that means only one lay in for me, and you can't even do that properly!!Don't talk to me about exhausted!!
On top of all that, I have got to do a big grocery shop as his family have invited themselves round tonight.
I am really not in the mood.
Don't worry, he says, just do sandwiches, they only want to drop cards off!
Oh yea, says I , I can imagine the reaction if I served up sandwiches!
Honestly, men!!!!

I don't get it.

although my DH goes off to work at an ungodly hour so at the weekends I have no guilt about him getting up at 7 with the kids because by then he's had a 5 hour lie in anyway.

but i still don't get it.

Well, thanks everyone, I feel like my name has been dragged through mud, shit and even worse now.
SIL and BIL came round, kept exchanging looks throughout dinner, so I feel vindicated in my unease.
DH made quite a bland pasta sauce, I don't know if that's why though.(i.e they thought it was me who cooked?)

so he isnt master bleedin chef he cooked for you...Nice?non Very machivellian to suggest the "bland" sauce was somehow a rouse to get at you. Did the "bland" sauce signify something deep in a psycho-dynamic way?

HappyNewYearFeet06 · 29/04/2008 11:49

Maybe it wouldn't have been bland if you had got off your arse and gone to the supermarket with the kids, bought the ignredients and then cooked it your bloody self.

It was HIS birthday after all and you sound like you had a great day, unlike dh.

Sorry, if this is a wind up then its a bloody good one. However johnso, if it is not then I reslly feel for your dh.

Also waiting for his birthday present still I suppose.

poshwellies · 29/04/2008 14:44

nickytwotimes · 29/04/2008 14:46
