Anyone split over constant sleeping?

DH sleeps more than anyone I’ve ever met, it’s literally all he wants to do. Day or night. If he disappears or goes quiet you can bet he’s lying down and sleeping. We’ve got 3 DCs and 2 dogs. I’m not working at the moment (which I hate, I can’t do what I’m trained in due to an arrhythmia that developed a few years ago) but also because if I did work I’d have to outsource literally everything at great cost. I do all the life admin for the 5 of us. Three separate schools, two teenagers, one in junior school. Two very active dogs, house cleaning and maintenance inside and out, cars etc etc you get the drift. DH works full time and I don’t so I know I need to pick up everything else. But if he’s not working he’ll sleep unless I bust him and get pissed off. I’ve asked him to take our youngest out on his bike this weekend, which he will do. But he’d never do anything with the DCs unless I was very explicit about what needs to be done.
Just walked upstairs and he’s sleeping on the bed in pjs with laptop open but off, and felt like I can’t do this anymore. I can’t keep getting angry all the time

@Nosdacariad yes in his mind, it’s been a two decade sulk!! Right before he moved out he blamed the birth of our DC again for derailing his life
