My husband is frequently ill and completely unable to help at the moment with childcare especially today as his back is bad, any way so I told him to relax all day and then did everything while he rested and did nothing, I did the dog walk putting my own back out lifting one of the dogs into the boot, come back and he goes to hospital as I say his leg cut that he got on a bike ride looks bad, all fine then he comes back at 6.45pm after I have played with our son and done all the food for him and us, I ask him to get peas out the freezer to go
with our meal and then he says please don’t tell me all I have is chicken and peas! I said omg I’ve tried to prepare a lovely meal and I got cross he said I am overreacting and he said he was “joking” but I said it was a horrid comment and go eat out, he said I’m being ridiculous and my son heard me say to leave and said don’t go and he said mummy is in the wrong about something. Then he said I am over over the top dramatic and he is very hungry and was “joking” although comes to tell me on getting it out the oven as he won’t eat out that he was surprised to see carrots too as well as chicken. And I am wrong to be so cross?!? What do you think?

I think he's right.

I think you both sound stressed.

Your post is a tad confusing OP. How long ago did he cut his leg? Is he completely unable to help with anything at all child or dog related but able to go on bike rides? Yes he is being a prick to complain about your cooking when he has done fuck all the entire day whether or not that fuck all is justified by injury.

Thank you so much he just explained he was joking making a joke about a man expecting a roast meal on a Sunday just a joke not that he does but he was playing being a twat that would act that way. He has now apologised. Yes sorry bike ride a few days ago and he got a scratch on the tire which has gotten worse the past few days and so I said as well as the back which is now better he should get his legged looked at today as it looked awful.
Thanks for your response he agrees he was in the wrong and upset he upset me so thank you x
