Ok so the background to this is dh is off to oz with work for 6 weeks in 2 weeks time leaving me home alone with dd3 and ds1 plus our business and my regular job (pt nurse), which i am pretty bloody miserable about but doing my best brave face.
Every year his work throws an end of year ball and we always go. This may sound pretty sad but i love going with him, i've lost a stone especially and bought a beautiful dress, we usually book into a hotel and have a totally child free night. Anyway his work also hold an end of season trip which is for the employees only which. As he is going away i have had to organise all my shifts around him so as a result i'm on nights on the sat/sun the day after the event(fri). We only have his mum and dad to babysit and as they won't take the kids for the whole weekend he has asked them just till 11.30 on the night of the ball and all night on sat night. I'm really pissed off about this i get to go for 2 lousy hours and if i drink i'll have to mind dc's with hangover all day on my own before dropping them off and going to work all night.
He has in essence sacrificed our night out together so as he can have a night out with the boys. I should mention we have only really had one big night out together since last year. I have asked him not to go on the overnight trip this am to which he has agreed but in a sulky sort of a way and i know he hasn't actually canceled yet. So after all that AIBU to want him to be with me before he goes off on a trip of a lifetime or should i let him go and just go for the 2 hours and have fun. I should point out apart from being a SH** this time he's really good about the house doesn't go out much and does alot of the night time wakings (probably the reason i'll miss him so much, so maybe i am a BU.
