    Yesterday I was completely wiped out with no sleep from the night before. I had a melt down on DH at 7:30 in the morning. He was consuling and told me to go back to bed. He told me not to do a thing yesterday. Thinking he would do SOMETHING when he got home, I didn't touch a thing. WRONG!!!

    He got home, we had BK (I know not the best) for dinner and he had to take some stuff to his sisters. We ate, and then he decided to go outside and wash his boat. DD and I went out with him, then DD wanted to go swimming. So we sat outside while she swam. I told her that she had to go take a bath (wanted to give it earlier, but DH said not to). Well, DH said she can wait til tomorrow. I told him no, she was getting a bath....she was up at the lake and hadn't had her head washed in a few days. So he did do that though I got her out and she got dressed and I did her hair. He did go to the store for a couple of things, but that was it.

    He left a sink full of dishes, the floors needed to be swept and he didn't even take out the garbage. I didn't realize til this morning he left all this for me today. I think I am mad and upset b/c I thought he was going to help me out by doing this stuff last night but instead he left for me today. If I would of known, I just would of done it yesterday. So much for being thoughtful.

    Luckily I got some really good sleep last night, but all I have been doing sice being up is cleaning the kitchen. I have to take breaks cause I start contracting a little. Now I need to go finish up sweeping and take out the garbage before it overflows. ERRRRR!!

    I feel for you! Asking my husband to do anything around the house is like pulling teeth. I can be a little bit of a neat freak, so the littliest things out of place bugs me. I have come to let things go a little. You can't do everything! My husband says he will kick in with the twins are born, but I am not counting on it. Guys just don't know how to multi-task like women.

    Sorry, I'm joining your vent. How can you be in the same room as your son, 5 feet away, and not see that he is pulling the videos out of the cabinet?

    hey my dh promised to wash the dishes last week...they sat for an entire week! I even took out a huge skillet to make myself a grilled cheese sandwich b/c I refused to wash the smaller ones that were in the sink. Dh got the point and was cracking up over seeing that I made a tiny little sandwhich in such a huge skillet... but then he washed the dishes. I hate to say it, but left on their own most men would live like pigs....

    Here is the thing though with DH. He normally does the dishes and stuff. He does it more than I do. He usually does more house work than I do, but since being pg, I have done more....doesn't make sense.

    I do give him this though. Last Friday after spending the night before in the hospital, he cleaned the entire house w/out me saying a word. I was very happy that he did it.

    argh i feel you all. i made a detailed list of things that need to be done/cleaned. i do the easier stuff, and he does the heavier stuff. i explained to DH that i made a list and i would like to get everything done within a week. he was all, "oh, of course, babe. anyway i can help." well, his half of the list is still waiting to be done. <_< :angry:
