So, yesterday, I had to remind my hubby to go out as the kids wanted me to get me a little something and card. I had my nails done, while hubby took them to Tesco. A couple of hours later they picked me up. Both the kids were upset and hubby said they had been running around the shop and therefore hadn't managed to get me anything and my youngest had wet himself a little but hubby hadn't changed him. I was a little annoyed as it seems that everytime he has the boys, they all fall out. The boys said they didn't want to go out with Daddy again.
Last night, it was my hubby's best mates 40th at a local pub which we all had planned to go as a family. Because I had a bit of a dig at hubby for not sorting my present from the boys, he went in sulk, had a couple of drinks, apparently sent his mate a text (and then deleted it) to say we weren't going to the party as I was in a mood! This is because I phoned my Mum to have a bit of a moan. I don't expect a present, but everytime it's someone else's Birthday I always get something (if only little) cause after all it's the thought that counts!
In the end, hubby was asleep and I woke up to try to persuade him to come to the party but he wouldn't, so ended up going on my own with the two kids. His friend was disappointed but knows my hubby is suffering with depression but put it down to that (although I think he was sulking)!
Today, it's my Birthday, I have a card each from my boys, and although they don't say Mummy on them, they are cards each of my boys wanted to buy me :-) My hubby made them write in the card this morning, while I was about, and then wrote his and left on the worktop and hasn't given it to me. He is now getting himself dressed and I'll end up sorting the boys out and then is going to take them to get me a present. My hubby has got me nothing :-(
Whilst, I'm now 37 and a grown-up, I feel disappointed as no real thought has gone into it and it feels as though my Birthday is an inconvenience. My hubby often 'plays up' the night before something big......he's been an a**e, the night before I had a big interview the next day, before.
Today, I'll be tidying and doing all the packing as off on holiday tomorrow but somehow these weekends events have taken the shine off my Birthday and our week away.
Sorry but just had to have a moan!
