Hi my name is MOM oh wait my birth-name is Alexis. These days it's MOM and yes that's right it comes out at a level higher then a scream! I have 2 very active boys. Hope you enjoy the wacky world I call life between working full time and taking care of the 3 boys (that includes my husband).
Thank God I am not alone. I could basically have done the same thing. And last night, when Baby girl had a fever of 103, I woke him up twice, once to get her a bottle when I was trying to take her temp and changer her diaper, and the second time to take care of the son in mid-nightmare while feverish baby girl cried to mommy. He told me that he was up as much as I was. REALLY? KMA, you have no idea what a mommy is. Want my you-know-what for one hour and switch spots? You would run away from home, not taking time to let me pack!
Yeah, I'd be livid - like not talk to him for a week, let him make the meals/clean the house/wash his own damned underwear/sleep on the deck kind of livid.
Turn about is fair play. Tell him that you'll have to drive down to Destin, Florida, to help a dear friend move. Then head down to the beach and party like a rock star!!!
Preach it, sista!! ;0) I have a good hubby, but sometimes he just doesn't understand all the things I do to keep everything running smoothly. I think it's just a man thing. ;0)
Sounds like fun.. My main blog is nbrsspot.blogspot.com. you are more than welcome to visit my crafting blog. i also have an etsy site.. www.etsy.com/shop/bri2004. Enjoy and hope to see you around sometime...
OMg I thought I was the only one.... I swear sometimes I want to choke him..
He will say let's go to the store... so me I got to shower the girls, pack the diaper bag, pack snacks, sippy cups for both... get my self ready... then don't forget their blankie...oh a light sweater just in case it gets chilly.
HIM: shower and get ready and it like what is taking so long... mther fker...... want to know what is taking so long really!
I know how you feel. My husband doesn't understand it either. He thinks if he feeds and bathes the kids two nights in a row, that it qualifies for an entire day of nothing for him. Sure buddy. I've told him, you wake the kids up, get them fed, dressed for school, get them there on time while getting yourself ready and feed the dogs 5 days a week and we'll talk. Then maybe he can get a day off.
I'm so sorry sweetie. I'm sure it had to do with his mom and it was not intentional on his part. I'm sure she figured he needed his rest from working two jobs and he didn't mean it to hurt you. But you know what, we will hopefully be moving in a few months, and I'll be needed you to come on down here to take care of my little love Nano. It requires sitting by the lake with him on the leash while you read and sip lemonade. Do you think you can help me? I would be lost without you!!

Dude, his weekend was so much harder than yours! Poor guy.
ReplyDeleteI think you should help your inlaws the next time they need help moving.
ReplyDeleteI mean, equal time, right?
Yeah, I'd be livid - like not talk to him for a week, let him make the meals/clean the house/wash his own damned underwear/sleep on the deck kind of livid.
ReplyDeleteWow - so you are married to my husband too! That is a shame. LOL
ReplyDeleteHope it gets better... I received my prize and blogged about it this morning. http://togetherwesave.blogspot.com/2010/03/mail-call.html

I ought aaaaaaaaa......
YIKES!!!!
ReplyDeletei think i need to have talk with him about a balancing act.. think he'll listen...lol!
You need to say, it's MY turn now... and do the same! :)
ReplyDeleteSo where are you going for your FREE weekend away from home? I am sure that it was good for him but you also need one.
ReplyDeleteAn "it's all about me" weekend is definitely in order for you. Schedule it and do it!
ReplyDeleteBecause in the end...
"If mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy!"
I would reward him with a weekend with the kids to himself while you went to a spa or something with your friends!
ReplyDeletePayback coming up! You have to make it right!
ReplyDeleteSo did his mom really need the help, or was this a way for her to get him "away" from it all? BARF!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're a saint!!
Oh no! I thought he was going to be spending most of the time helping his mom move. I can see why you're upset...you definitely needed the help more!
ReplyDeleteOh, that sucks!! Don't worry, I am sure he will get his fair share soon. :-)
ReplyDeleteAlexis. I swear you need to sit down for oh I don't know 10 minutes and have me time. Sounds like hubs had it rough lol....grr.
ReplyDeleteVery clever post-its :-) And WooHoo I am your latest follower- yea! Hope you stop by my place when you get the chance!

ReplyDeleteOh man. His weekend sounds SO. TOUGH.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry. :(
