Topic: my husband is an arse... Posted: 16 May 2007 at 11:00pm |
grrrr - so much to complain about him, not enough space on here even for that novel....
we have hardly even spoken to each other since mothers day...such an arse...grrrr. and yesterday he had a day off work and said he needed to have a day off to himself....WHAT the ...... grrrrr. so he did, but all he did was the same stuff me and the kids did - warehouse, lunch, home.... gggrrrrr and then he tells me at 8 this am he wasnt coming home for dinner so i had to do bath and bed routine by myself when he normally does it and he is working late tomorrow too.
i asked him what his problem is and he gives me this big sad "i dont know" like now we have to discuss his problems but i have had enough and just said whatever.! so once again he went to bed early and left me in the lounge.... gggrrrrrr. arse is all i can say.
oh well, life goes on. and as my mum keeps reminding me back in her day that was normal and med who did stuff for the kids was not the norm.
i feel better now - but hes still an arse.

Sigh. MEN! My DH often goes to work late in the mornings because he just needs to sleep in since he worked late the night before. This morning he gave me that excuse, so I got up, got Em dressed and breakfasted and ready to go see Emma for a meeting, and was rushing around, cleaning up, feeding the dog, packing our stuff... When I came back into the bedroom to get a sweater, I found him in bed reading a new science fiction novel! When he saw me, he whipped it under the covers. GRR!
And I get that same excuse for needing a day off -- that he needs "me time" -- and then he does exactly what your DH does, gandt. Goes to the Warehouse, surfs the internet, eats fast food lunches.
What hacks me off the most is that when I have to go to work away from home, I have to pay for childcare out of whatever pittance I make -- so when I want a day off, I either need to "book" him to look after Em, or pay a babysitter -- but when he wants a day off, he's got ME to do the care. GRRR!
Let's send them to Husband Boot Camp! (my recurring fantasy!)

I am so there at the momemnt! BUT, I'm off on teaching section at the mo, so hubby is at home with the kids everyday! (see how you like it buddy!), and I tell you what, when I pull in the driveway, he's ready to go to wokr - practically throws me out of the car and jumps in! *he works nights). But the worst part is walking in and seeing "all" the housework he's done....grrr

I am about to have a husband, so ladies by the time this happens you have to let me know the details of the boot camp. My Dp sure could do with a swift kick up the backside.
I will send a cyper your way and hope that today is a better day for you!

What is it with men always thinking they have the monopoly on tiredness and stress?????  My day goes a little something like this: 6am wake up when Joshua does - up, Jman dressed, bottle, breakfast; 7am DP gets up, me shower and back downstairs, make lunches, tidy, dishes etc; 8.15am - Jman to daycare, us to work; 2.30pm - me leave work, collect Jman, home, unload dishwasher, prepare Jman dinner, play with Jman, give him dinner 6.15pm - DP home, DP baths Jman, me prepare our dinner, make bottles, give Jman bottle, 20mins getting him to sleep; 7.30 - start cooking dinner; 8.30pm - eat dinner, do dishes, tidy house 9.30pm bed for me..... DP's day - 7am - wake up, eat breakfast, drink coffee; 7.45 - shower, get ready for work; 8.15am - go to work; 6.15pm - get home, small rest, bath Jman, then chill out FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT.....
Dunno about you guys, but MAN..... MEN P*** ME OFF SOMETIMES!!!
Vent, and release

Where is this magical sounding husband boot-camp and how fast can I get an application in?!?
I had to laugh the other night though - DH had been uncharacteristically moody around me since the day before. Finally, Ella was asleep, my housewifely duties (!?!) were finished, and I could sit down with him, ready to watch House. But he still seemed pi$$y about something... so I heaved a big sigh and reluctantly asked him if he wanted to talk about his feelings, then muttered something along the lines of "oh lord, no" when he said yes and actually started to! All I needed was a beer in hand and I'd sooo be the man!

I have had a lightbulb moment! When we all go to the OHbaby! Mega Meet we will arrange a simultaneous 'boot camp' for the useless male species and while we lounge around Welington for the weekend they can be learning why it isn't a good idea to bite the hand that cooks your dinner.

Emma, that is a fabulous idea, only... Who will we get to lead the camp? A "reformed" husband (is there such a thing)? Or a bunch of pissed-off wives? LOL

Ahahahahahahhahhahah....
Women....
"Mens boot camp" wouldn't work. If you really want a good insightful book into guys get "Men are Clams and Women are Crowbars" by Dr David Clarke.
