I love my husband, really I do but some of the things that he does drive my up the wall.
First, he can't remember anything past his nose. Yesterday was father's day, so I reminded him to call his parents. I went out and he called them. I asked, did you wish your Mom, Happy Birthday. "No, why". Well maybe it's because tomorrow is her Birthday. Why can't he remember his Mom's birthday? Why do I have to remember. Of course, she's probably home hurt because her son can remember Father's Day but forget her birthday.
To the person who everyone forgot her birthday, I have no idea why I can remember birthdays but the men in my family forget every year. My DH forgets his own birthday half the time.
Also my DH has been really busy at work lately. He has a project that is going to last until the end of June. I have been really considerate about his being present at events this month. Our DS graduated earlier this month and my DH came home early the day of graduation. He went to work the next day even though I still had relatives here. He is taking time off this weekend to go to my parents 50th wedding anniversary but other than that, he hasn't taken any time off. Yesterday, a friend called (whose calls he has been avoiding for two weekends because he is so busy with this project), this friend wants to go fishing and he's not getting that my DH doesn't have time to do this. So this guy calls again and wants to go fishing. My DH tells him that he'll take off Weds. morning to go fishing. WTH. He can't go to his brothers cabin (where the whole family wants to go but can't because he's too busy), he can't take time off during graduation but he's going fishing when he's going out of town for the weekend. I was feeling really bad about my DH taking this weekend off for the party and was trying to figure out how to change things so he didn't have to take 2 days off. (Even though he has 5 weeks of vacation, he hasn't taken any time off this year so far).
Of course my DH was mad when I brought up that fact that he doesn't have time to go fishing and that he has been avoiding this guys calls for two weekends. He got really mad and said that he can do things with friends sometimes. Well yea he can, but he doesn't want to go fishing, he just wants this guy to stop calling. Why is it that he can do things for other people when they bug him enough but he can't take time off for the family?
Anyways these things drive me crazy. Any body elses DH do things like this?
