Venting

Gto he is darn lucky you have kicked his hind end to tin buck to. You really need some time for yourself, which I know it's hard with children an a husband being a jerk. Do you have any close family of your own or sister in law that can come in and help you once in awhile? Or even a good friend. I know your going through a hard time of it, but don't give up on your self. One thing that when you cook splurge on some paper plates once in awhile to save dishwashing . :happy:

If you are really feeling hostile, follow the lead from the scene in the Prince of Tides and take a can of Alpo, an onion, some seasonings and little potato and give him that. I am still of the opinion if you don't like what is served I will either serve you something waaaaaaaay worse or get you own food. Hang in there. My other solution is a frying pan on the back of the head and claim PMS and what I call HIAAS (husband is an a** syndrome). It has worked before!!

Yeah, isn't it fun when they are in that mood and then they look at you and go "what's your problem"!

im not sure i got this i thought you to were sepearted am i wrong?
i missed something or miss understood.. sorry :flowerforyou:

Yeah I know how you feel! My husband walks in the door and lays on the couch too. He thinks because he works and I stay home with the kids that he should do nothing but that. When he is supposed to sit with the kids so I can make dinner or do dishes he falls asleep. I can't even leave them with him because he will go to sleep and it's not safe (they are 1 and 2). If he cooks I have to clean up after him. If I cook I still have to clean. He won't even rinse out a cereal bowl and put tit in the dishwasher!!! He takes his disgusting socks off and throws them on the floor in the living room and leaves them there. I stopped doing his laundry because he wanted his done differently than mine and the kids. I told him do it yourself! I stopped caring about what he wants for dinner because it seems like every other week he doesn't want to eat what I make because he's on a diet. I think you should put your foot down and let him know that you don't care. I agree with the sandwich thing. If he wants a hot meal he'll eat what you make.

I say give those guys a dose of feminist perspective! Consider for a moment how important a job it is to raise children. For some reason women have never been compensated for this work, even though it has been critically important to the survival of our species. Why is it then that in our society we believe having a job where you get paid is more important or worthwhile work than raising children? (rhetorical question) Raising children well takes certain kinds of skills and degrees of patience that not everyone has. All you mothers out there, stay-at-home and otherwise, deserve more credit! (And single/stay-at-home dads, too!) :drinker: Btw, happy mother's day! :flowerforyou:
