Make sure you go out tomorrow and leave him with ds

Just don't clean up. Go out to the cinema with DS and then you can all do it together when you get home.

I'm in full agreement with ILoveTIFFANY. The mess will still be there tomorrow.... as will both of you.

If I were in your position it would be me who was off to the football as I love it, leaving my partner in charge of the kids and cleaning. As it is, we live alone, so the cleaning is my job every day.

Watching the match is an ancient and venerable Boxing Day tradition.

When I see DH & my boys later they will have had lots of coke -and beer fresh air. And I've had a lovely few hours of peace & quiet and all the quality street.

Yes. Go out and leave the cleaning for tomorrow. Next year get him to take DS with him or arrange to go out on Boxing day yourself. Alternatively, do the cleaning and use the moral highground to arrange a day out for yourself next week?

StAnne · 26/12/2009 15:09

I'm off out now My own silly fault. ds is now crying he doesn't want to go out. All our friends are seeing relatives. I'll do the same next year!

The thing is when I get to do the housework, I am just too tired for sex.
It just wears me out
DH knows if he helps me then I am much more amenable.

my dh goes to match with ds and that leaves me with dd1 and dd2 no housework no cleaning just a nice relaxing day for me and the girls see it as their chance to go on wii watch dvd,s with no argueing from ds!

Sorry, I was just a moaning cow when I typed it out. Will do better next and plan something for Ds & myself to do on Boxing day even if it's just the cinema. I don't think DS is keen on going with dad to football yet as he is only 5yrs.
busymummy3 How come no cleaning after Christmas day? We had guests until 11pm no chance to clean the kitchen. They did wash up and put away but the kitchen was still a mess. I like getting outdoors everyday and Ds has had enough of shopping by Boxing day!
