Ugh. I hate how DH acts around SIL and MIL. They sit at the table and listen to him pontificate on medicine etc. SIL has an awesome job in DC--I am sure she has interesting stories to tell. Meanwhile, I cook dinner AND clean up afterwards!
Then he say he wants a particular piece of art work for Xmas from them--I look at him like WHuCK?? and he says something like I am putting the kibosh on it-uh, yeah--and I say to him, "where would we put it?". SIL mentions that we have empty wall space--yes, because he has yet to hang the pix we ALREADY have downstairs in the redone family room. Why?? Because he only wants modern stuff and my art that was down there just doesn't meet his wants. He explains to SIL that I got to call the shots upstairs so he gets to do the downstairs. UM--the upstairs would be the KITCHEN where I am the ONLY person who cooks. EVER. So, yes, it is MY kitchen. No, he does not get the ENTIRE downstairs as his "man cave" and then I have to shove all of my stuff into my bedroom!!! (DH sleeps in the guest room downstairs because he works Emergency Room hours and he snores like crazy. We got married at 35 so we have plenty of stuff that is his and hers vs. ours. My mother, God rest her soul, said that DH's failing was that he actually cared about how a house was decorated )
5 more days of DH "walking on water". He wonders why i get so "weird" when we are around his family......He doesn't see that their bizarre adulation of him is ...bizarre. And, yes, I need some help here. Thank goodness I am going to go to work on Monday and Tuesday. No matter how busy I am, it will be a break!
