oh soo nice hb

[honeybun]

Just thought what I had done today.....and felt resentful.

Hubby kept following me around asking what he could do.....how about opening your eyes and figuring it out for yourself 


Ooo just had to get that off my chest

    â€¦â€¦.. mine does that.  Goes around with his eyes half shut he does 

He wields the hoovery-thingy without me asking, usually when I'm about to do something in that particular room/s  ……… he would never consider stripping the bed, wiping down the work-suraces [we had *that* conversation yesterday  ], nor clean the bathroom - I love doing that however ………

[honeybun]

And then I have to go to another house and start all over again..

Think I may have to go on strike.

Sometime soon.

Come down here for a rest  ……… feet up, fire lit ……… plenty of places to walk the dog ……. shopping opportunities …. but you need to take us as you find us, that is: if you can find us at home 

[kerrieann]

my partners favorite saying is, you only have to ask, but on the odd occasion that i do the reply is ok  i will in a bit, by which time ive  done it myself 

[honeybun]

I've let things slip I'm afraid. Since working more hours the house gets dusted and hoovered once a week. The ironing is a bit hit and miss. If someone wants something that's still in the ironing basket then they have to do it themselves. Being out of action in the summer made me realise just how much I did in the house and how much didn't get done while I couldn't do it because husband son couldn't be bothered and I discovered that the house didn't fall down and we didn't all die of grubby windows or not-so-clean-kitchen-floor-disease. As my youngest son who is still living at home said "Mum doesn't it make you wonder why you've wasted all that time cleaning and stuff?" and "Mum you women really do make work for yourselves".  It is nice, though, when everything is clean and tidy but like you honeyb I resent my time spent doing it now - life really is too short - and so I don't!

I so wish I could do a bit more of that 

Just seems to happen although I don't do nearly as much as I used to do.

It gets on my nerves at time especially when I have my mother bending my ear about what she wants done....such as taking all the cushions off her chairs and sofa and hoovering underneath, and moving her bed and hoovering that. Not to mention her telling me I don't cook her much anymore....errr...just every single dinner she has.

Is it any wonder I get p***d off sometimes.


Ok I will relax and breath now

Good for you TAz

I never feel bad about not doing housework, but do feel guilty still if I haven't managed to do something for hubbys tea 

But now I 've managed to sort food shop online at least can get food in !

Hope to try to actually go to supermarket tomorrow if I feel up to it
