Version 3 (trying to keep this short ? versions 1 & 2 stupidly long for such a mundane rant!).
OK ? so I promised to finish decorating our room this weekend. DS however was poorly ? requiring cuddles, general company and sick-bowl holding. DP took it upon himself to do Ds?s room (why this weekend ffs?) so these duties fell to me ? I wasn?t prepared to leave ds on his own for hours downstairs as it just wouldn?t be fair. He?s a big boy (nearly 9) but fgs still little enough to need extra TLC. Also ds and I were up much of Saturday night (ds throwing up, coughing) and were therefore shattered yesterday ? I was at that level of tiredness where you really can?t think straight. As planned I managed to make our room habitable, in the rare moments when dp came downstairs, but it isn?t finished yet. DP is in a piss because I?ve ?broken a promise?. I am sooo angry with him I can barely speak to him, even today.
Help me get some perspective please. I think dp has been totally insensitive to both of us. I've kept ds off school as he's still not right (but much better than yesterday and not so clingy) so I'm off work, giving me time to do some very unhealthy brooding. What I should be doing however is calming down - how do I do this?
