I agree....I might just have to steal it!
You must come to RB more often.
I totally agree...why the hell didn't Mike just leave!?
Hope you managed to get some good sleep girl
Oh man....that's just nuts! But I still love hot weather. No matter how hot.
Ugh!!! wth is his major malfunction!? Can I please come down there and punch him!?
Love it! Very nice addition! Did you get it done at H & H??
Hi Carla. We missed you the other night.
I'm a little slow...what is H &H?
Nikki, cool stars!
So I am at work today. But my back is still hurting and my tummy is a bit rumbly. I'm really exhausted too. Was up past midnight arguing with DH. He felt the need to bring up all the crap that I haven't done over the past couple of weeks. He works way too much (it's true, a full time job and part time job with only 1 day off a week) to have to deal with any of that stuff. Granted, a lot of the "junk" laying around IS his...but I'm sure I have my share too. So yeah, I'm a horrible wife, but why do you have to bring it up when I'm dog sick?
If you're a horrible wife, then I shouldn't even be married.
Here's the thing...Joe also works two jobs. He has his full time job and then he works 3 or 4 days a week, 8 hours a day, depending on the week. I am so sick most of the time that there's a lot of "wifely duties" (no, not those kind) that I neglect. I am going to give him credit where credit is due. He's really good about cleaning the house. He'll do laundry, dishes, vacuum, pretty much anything. I just can't bring myself to do a lot of this stuff, because the longer I'm up, the worse my pain is. A lot of the time, it is all I can do to just drag my butt to work every day. Granted, he doesn't do the work like I would do it. If he's, say, mopping the floors, he'll just go over it quickly with a mop and disinfectant in the bucket. I'm the one who will get down on my hands and knees and really give it a good scrubbing. But he does it and doesn't complain. Honestly, I don't know what I would do if I didn't have his help. He may not do things like take me to the hospital when I go, and he kind of just expects me to be there with the kids so he can go have his fun, but he's the biggest help as far as keeping the house neat and clean goes.
Just like a guy to kick you when you're down. I think they do it on purpose because they know you aren't in top form to fight back.
Whenever my DH starts complaining about that stuff, we do the walk through. This is yours, this is yours, this is yours. And I flat out tell him ---if you married me for my cleaning skills you are sh$$ out of luck. I know my faults. I am not a neat person. I do not like to spend my time cleaning.
I'm sorry ... can you tell this is a sore subject for me ?
Rant over
Same here, I've never been the neatest person in the world. That is one thing that hasn't changed in the 13 years I've known my husband.
Solution: Cough, Sneeze, Phlegm, Pee, Poop and Puke over his stuff.
Then, OOPS, I tried to get to it but I told you I wasn't feeling good.
Ha, and y'all say I'M evil!!
Poop!
You are so easily amused.
Jamie ~ I just saw the pictures you put up of Teddy's prom on FB. ADORABLE!!!!
AARGH! You guys are evil. I want to see those pictures!
I forgot to mention he said I "spend too much time on one thing" when I clean
This was after I had mentioned to him that I cleaned the whole fridge a month or so ago and within less than a week it was disgusting again (because of him) I worked my freaking BUTT off cleaning that out.
So I said, "what you mean the fridge?" and he said "yes it only takes 30 minutes to clean the fridge" I got reeeeeeeally agitated and tried to explain to him that it took me a couple hours to clean that fridge out, it was disgusting. Gooky stuff on the shelves, I said heck, it took me like 20 minutes just to get some nasty stuff off one of those shelves. Not only do you have to take the shelves out---in order to do that, you have to take all the FOOD out. DUH! And wipe the back behind everything, which is not easy.
That same day I scrubbed the microwave. That took me about 30 minutes I think (it was horrible) and now it's back to that same state. Oh and I'm sure that he thinks it should only take 5 minutes to clean a microwave. Not the way HE gets it so NASTY!
Well that's just how it is. If you want something done right, you can't just do a half *donkey*ed job at it. When will he learn?
We should change the title of this thread to "Complain about your husbands here"
Actually, I bet if someone started a thread like that on the DIS, it would grow to 1000 "members" within a day.
Then someone, somewhere would be complaining about us complaining!
That has happened to Bo a few times too. So gross. I'm sure Chance will be okay. The change in food might be bothering him.
