So tonight DH says how he is so looking forward to Sept. 11th. First thing I think is HUH. So I say, what is Sept. 11th. He says he is going away with the guys to woodstock to watch the Penn State game. There is supposedly something going on in woodstock that weekend. I'm pissed. He doesn't get why, so let me vent it here before I go ape **** on DH.
1-no I don't care/mind that he goes away with the guys. He does work hard.
2-Yes, I mind that he hates yardwork and puts it off and would prefer to pay a service with $$ we simply do not have (we don't have someone come in and clean the house for this same reason--I AM THE CLEANING LADY). I'm sick of hearing him say he has no down time (as we spends hours watching TV at night).
3-YES I mind that he is fed up with caring for the kids. He should not have had them if he didn't want them.
4- Yes, I mind that his trip is on ROSH HASHANAH. Yes, we are going to Shul. Yes, we are setting an example for the kids (well, at least I am).
5-Yes, I mind that he doesn't know details of his trip (specifically what day he will leave, how long he will be gone etc....)
DH is the type of person who glosses over details. He normally gets everything wrong--our kids ages, bdays, important dates, his schedule for work etc....
I so wish DH would get a clue. Life is hard. We are all tired. This is not unique to him. He does not deserve down time any more or less than the next person (or me for that matter).
