I am probably being unreasonable but I need to let this out otherwise the kids are going to get unfairly stressed mummy and I dont want to do that.

I am so pissed off at my Husband, I know its Christmas but I am not kidding you he has been out on a 'do' every night bar one for the past two weeks... I have been struggling with two poorly children ( and myself) and he has not given a thought to me at home.

I just feel like crying ( well I have been) Im this sad , frumpy, fat solitary cow sat at home looking after the kids and house. He is off swaning about in London having the time of his life.
I ask him where he has been and what he has been doing, and apparently I dont trust him because Im asking????

He could have come home last night, but booked a hotel saying his work do would finish very late. But yet he has told me today that it finished at 12 am and then they went on to some night club till 4am! So he could have come home, but chose not to iyswim?

This has just tipped me over the edge, I think if this had been a solitary night I would have not batted an eye lid, the fact that he has been out constantly and not once said, Ill stay in and help/give you a break etc is crushing me. I feel worthless and like some stupid prat sitting here.
He does not see the problem and dosent see the need of reassuring me everything is ok, telling me what went on and generally grovelling for having a whale of a time for 2 weeks whilst I have been having the hardest time.

I know Im rambling, Im so cross. Im trying to get ds to sleep and calm down dd who is hysterical and not really seeing her daddy for 2 weeks and it taking it out on me

Arrghghgghghghgh, please be gentle with me.

I would go and get some career advice, there may be ways of doing it. You could start at the CAB-they could at least point you in the right direction to find out about things.

Hey Gravity Girl! I am doing a nursing course. How much does his night out cost? x that by how many times a month....its a no brainer. It may cost you a few bob but its worth it. If you dont have any qualifications then can I suggest an access to nursing course? I am sure you can get a certain amount of help with nursing courses. Try and speak to a careers advisor at your job centre (you dont have to be unemployed per se)or try looking online at your nearest college for an access to nursing course. You never know what grants are about until you ask. Im so proud of you!

Keep going Gravity Girl!

MSTG- Do you find it hard are you doing the diphe?
I have a degree already so would only have to do 2 years instead of three although want to do the 3 years to refresh my addled brain

I was thinking about doing the access course as something I can do now as I cant start nursing until they are both in school ( 3 years away) sob ....

£200 was per term, so not sure we could afford taht upfront

I will ask around though, thankyou x

Things are still not great between us, and not sure they will be but Im trying to concentrate on me and pull myself out of this hole.
