*****************NO BASHING*********************** Fan Vent~I need to vent. Sorry its long. I know my husband works hard 10 hours a day, 4-5 days a week. I appreciate it, I do. Thats why I never ask him to do anything. Once in a while if I have laundry in the washer at bed time I leave him a note asking him to switch it out, or to clean the bottle nippes if I didnt get to it that night. Everyday I clean, I take care of 4 kids, plus the 5-10 (depending on days/times) other kids I baby sit to supplement our income, I do online surveys for date-night $ (which we havent gone out in a year), I pay all the bills, run all the errands, pack his lunch, take care of the maintence on our van (which has been in pieces at a friends house since the 22nd of Oct & will be there until after the 16th b/c I am waiting on another friend to get back to town to help me drop the motor) wake him up for & take him work (since van is broke right now *I* had to make transportation arrangements for him) get the kids to & from school & help a few of my friends in town when they need me. He works 3pm-1am, kids are home at 315, bed at 830 & up at 7am. He doesnt wake up until 10min before he was to be out the door. When he comes home he stays up all morning (usually until about 6am) playing video or computer games. So not only do the kids not see him, but neither do I. Then on weekends he might wake up around 3 or 5pm then spends the entire day on his games. Ive been sick for the last 3 days, our 9m old is just now getting over being sick for the last 3 weeks. He hasnt helped me at all. Tonight Im babysitting for a friend for her bday - her 2 sons, which we agreed to do over a month ago & he promised to help me. I asked him to check on the kids after I heard a big thump; he yells down the hall (kids in room are 6, 5, 4 & 2) hey hows it goin in there? He couldnt have gotten off his ass to walk the 5ft to the kids room to look at them?! My voice is cracking, my head is pounding, Im nauseous & achey, head stuffed & having trouble getting air... yet I am doing all the diaper changing, the boo boo kissing, the supervising, the disciplining, story reading, dinner making... I just want 10 min of quiet with a cool rag on my head, something cold & soothing down my throat & a heating pad on my back. Anytime I ask him to do something In a minute why cant you do it? Im busy Plus since Im so sick Im having trouble eating, so I bought myself a comfort food - just a little something to make me feel better; 20pc spicy bbq boneless wings. I had 3 yesterday & went to eat a few more for lunch since I finally felt hungry only to find he had eaten them all. He knows I rarely get them b/c I dont want to spend the money so it really pissed me off today. Its pathetic when you have to budget comfort food & then your SO eats it! And the cherry on the cake of tonight is that my 9m old will only yell for daddy, who is too busy watching anime to hear him. He keeps crawling to him & trying to get his attention only to be moved back to his playmat & given a different noisy toy. Anyone want to help me run away for a day? Im too exhausted to cry.
