I really think he does. A few months ago he told me "parents don't get breaks" while I was wrangling DS who was acting like a monster so he could socialize with his family when we were visiting. He spent most of the weekend drinking a beer sitting on the deck. There was a canal nearby and if there was a gator in it I might have pushed him in.
Ohhh and he won't be home tonight until after DS goes to bed. Because hobby.
OMG, CurlyQ284. WTF is his problem? Definitely light his shit on fire, and be sitting there roasting marshmallows when he gets home tonight. I am raging for you.
I really don't know. He's been pretty selfish for the last yearish. I have considered splitting up several times in the last few months. It sounds dumb to feel this way over stupid comments but seriously? He has been gone almost the entire month of August between his job and his stupid freaking hobby. He won't be home until DS is asleep tonight because of his hobby. I am doing this all by myself and he says THIS? And then left trash in the hallway that he was supposed to take out for trash day and dishes in the sink when he was supposed to wash dishes last night?!
I am almost at the point where IDGAF about fixing things. Because screw him.
ETA AND I'm supposed to be closing on my short sale on a house which has plagued us for years! I'm so nervous I didn't sleep. I don't need this right now, but I doubt he even remembers that's today because he has something for his hobby and that's more important to him.
Well, you're not feeling this way over the comments, you're feeling it over the lack of support, and appreciation for what you do. And it doesn't sound like he's open to the idea that ANY your frustration is valid, he just thinks your expectations are unreasonable. I don't know what to tell you, but creepy internet hugs.
And that's awesome that the house is selling, fingers crossed for a smooth closing!

This.
Also, I have a minivan and don't have the kids tonight.
CurlyQ284, while I fully support killing your H at this point, I'm really confused as to what he does to your DS's hair every morning.
Signed, I don't always brush my daughters' hairs
He combs it to look like a little Ken doll. For whatever reason I cannot get it right. It looks jacked when I do it, I'm not sure if I'm parting it in the wrong spot or what.
So I misted it, brushed it forward like when he had baby hair and left. It looks funny but that's all I was up for.
We have had a lot of issues, I think things are just breaking down on small issues at this point. I don't think we like each other very much right now.

I'm sorry
For your own mental sanity, I would just not do his hair if your H won't do it. Who cares? It's a little kid!

It was more that he said "you have two hands, do it yourself." WTF is that?! Please realize this comes from a person who hasn't done a load of laundry or pushed a vacuum cleaner in 10 years.
Yeah I'll just get DS ready start to finish every day from now on, drive him there, pick him up and also do bath and bedtime. But also, I hate DH right now.

(((hugs)))
I almost murdered my H the other day because he said something like "you know, you need to watch the baby, right?". Dude. WTF do you think I am doing all the fucking time?
I think dd is getting a cold and I'm out of kids cold meds so I need to go buy some tonight.
We might not be able to do our annual week at the cabin the week of New Year's. H is supposed to be on call starting Christmas Day through New Year's Day. He's going to see if the guy that is on call the week before will switch with him, but if he won't then we can't go. I'm kind of sad about it.
We are going to the cabin and to Steamboat for an air show this coming weekend and I'm so excited. We haven't been to the cabin since the 4th of July. I hope this week goes by fast!
DH's aunt has apparently been in contact with his dad, who H isn't on speaking terms with. The guy is an asshole alcoholic and refuses to do anything about. I like his aunt, but she can be catty and does shit like this to piss off MIL, who is separated from FIL. The end of the weekend was kind of a clusterfuck and it put a bit of a damper on things.
I want so badly to just go back to sleep. I'm exhausted.
DS was insanely adorable this weekend. I love that kid.
I am sooooo not feeling work or home stuff today. The house is messy and I need to clean after I finish this batch of essays, but every five seconds I find myself distracted by something random. At this rate I'll be scrubbing toilets at dinner time.
The worst part is that I was hyper focused and motivated about this stuff last week when the boys were home all day. Now that I have 6 hours to myself to get shit done I'm a distracted mess.
A dead man? omg I just emailed him and he wrote back "don't rush me if I'm busy. This is another fight that doesn't need to happen. Brush it off and move on"
Is this not what one wears in the south? Golly, I have so much to learn.
Saturday night was FUN, because we had Social Distortion at the Ryman, some country act at the Bridgestone, Cirque du Soleil somewhere else, and all the Republicans in town to hear Trump speak. It was epic people-watching.
By and large, though, you can tell the female tourists because they're either wearing cutoff shorts and boots or sundresses and boots. Or, if they're part of a bachelorette party, they're wearing matching dresses and yelling WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO from the back of a pedal tavern.

Soooooo...no boots and skirts?
the boots/dress/cutoffs thing is completely acceptable out in the country, but not in nashville. LOL!

Only in areas where there is legit farming. Then it's still questionable.
FTR panhandlers and street musicians know a tourist from a mile away. If you go to Nashville wear what you do in your hometown. It makes you less of a target. Lol

H was saying on Saturday we never go on lunch dates anymore. He got in the office today and sent over a meeting maker for Thur. We are meeting at a taqueria we love and going for dessert across the street at an ice cream spot.
