Mum annoyed that my husband fell asleep at 8:30pm on boxing day after over-indulging

Hi,

Just wanted to get people's thoughts on this please.

My mum came over on Boxing day and stayed the night. My husband spent most of the afternoon preparing a meal for us all and drank a little too much whilst doing so.
This meant he missed out on the games we played with the children and he was fast asleep on the sofa by 8.30pm snoring extremelty loudly. I was a little embarrased as was sitting there with my mum listening to him snoring.

When i spoke to mum the following day after she had gone home she said she felt very embarrased and uncomfortable about the situation. She was the guest and he shouldnt have drunk so much that he fell asleep in that state. She said she will not be texting my husband to thank him for the meal he cooked.

What are peoples thoughts?

Mine does that too, I just sit next to him so I can nudge his foot with mine when he falls asleep. If he had to make the dinner he WOULD be tired, that takes a lot out of a man ;)

I think you mean petty. Pedantic is something else altogether.

We must be odd then. I do all the work, husband does the sleeping after dinner. We don't drink so its not that. He says its because its normal after eating.mmm....

If that's all he made there was no excuse for sleeping. It has to be drink. Good job he didn't attempt a full christmas dinner, probably need an adrenaline injection after!
