Is it ok if I run away? warning:hormonal vent ahead

[preshi]

I am so tired of cleaning constantly. I'd go on strike but I wouldn't like living in the filth.

Last weekend I did almost all the laundry. I decided I wasn't going to put DH's clothes away. Guess where they are? Still on his dresser. And I found dirty socks under the bed on his side, dirty clothes on the floor in the bathroom. I can't tell you how many times I've asked him to just walk the literal 2 feet to the hamper to put them in. Ahhhhhhh.... And when he manages to do something, like put the washer stuff in the dryer he gets some clothes on the floor and leaves them there! What the heck?

The only thing I am grateful for is that he cooks dinner and breakfast when he is here, but then he leaves the dishes in the sink. He was a spoiled brat when he lived with his parents and apparently he still hasn't learned. It's been 5 years you'd think he'd figure it out by now!

And believe me I've discussed all these things with him. He either says he'll do it right or he tells me I'm nagging him.

I have just had it today. I am pregnant, tired and am sick of constantly picking up after other people. I never get a free day to myself. MIL offers to watch DS but only for an hour. Thats not nearly enough time to rest. Dh can drop Austin off at school and relax for 4-5 hours.

I'm taking a vacation with the girls sometime after the baby is born...if I don't I might just go crazy!

to you.

I don't have a solution but running away sounds like a good idea. Good luck!

Does it help to know you're not alone in this? (except the pregnant part ) Some of us it's our husbands, some of us, it's the kids. If they could all be like us, everything would be fine You're doing great. Hang in there!!

It's so funny you say that! I was on the phone with my Mom complaning about this very topic and then I started to relaize it's what she sounded like when I was a teenager. LOL

Poor Mom

I can't imagine what it will be like around here when both my boys are teenagers

You're not the only one, preshi! Sometimes I feel like all I do between working, eating and sleeping is cleaning up after DH who can be such a pig. I get ticked off at the fact he doesn't clean up after himself in the bathroom (a personal pet peeve of mine) and that he leaves his clothes wherever they happen to fall. Sometimes I get so ticked off, I want to beat the living snot outta him for stuff like this.


And then, he surprises me by doing things I don't expect, like cleaning the kitchen and the pantry on his day off. And putting gas in my car before I tell him I'm running low.

So......hang in there, gal. We're always here if ya need to vent.

I know quite well how you feel. My husband tells me he hates the mess, yet he doesnt' do anything more than sit on his bum in the office playing computer games. I clean, I cook, I take care of all pets, I take care of children.. he works and plays video games. He doesn't have a clue as to how to care for the kids for more than a day, and then it's usually under protest.

Hang in there! It's frustrating, and annoying, but you're not the only one. Maybe you could tell him if he doesn't help you're going to hire a maid for a day. (Make sure you follow through if he doesn't!)
