He will do something if I tell him to but yes, as some of you have said, it's just frustrating that I have to tell him to do such things. When your child clearly has a dirty diaper, change it!! I shouldn't have to ask. Last night when we came home from my parents house I put away the dry dishes, washed the few in the sink, hung up our wet bathing suits and towels, unpacked our bookbag, made a trip into the cellar to put some items away, changed A's diaper, got her room ready for the night and brushes her teeth.. All while he sat on his phone. 😑 I just don't have the patience for that. And as jedi said, I'm hoping his attitude this morning is just because he knows I'm right. Thanks again, ladies. I appreciate the commiseration. I know I'm not the only wife/mom who deals with this but it's so damn frustrating some times

Does anyone watch Girl Boss on netflix? I was binge watching it last night and there is a hilarious scene depicting an online chat forum. Was making me LOL.

I'm also on desktop for the first time in forever and the new logo reminds me of grapes for a wine shop. Wondering if that was intentional.

Pizzaslut, love that pic! taketheshot, I agree with what everyone has said. We started doing a sit together/stand together thing. DH would sit on the couch while I made supper, and then because I was up I would diffuse fights/fix tents/give bandaids/whatever the hell the kids need. Then we would eat, then he would go sit down while I did the dishes. It's like it never even occurred to him that I was working while he was sitting. Now he tries to work when I work. So he might not help with the dishes but if I am standing there doing dishes, he will start bedtime routines or something. This helped my resentment a million fold. Lol seeing him sitting there and sitting there just made my blood boil.

I'm a new person this week. We ended up selling a couple of grand worth of shit we really don't use anyway, effectively solving our money issues. This felt pretty empowering! Also, I took the job at the golf club, but only for Saturday wedding shifts. This means I will only have to work saturday evenings. While it's not a lot of extra money, it kind of solves the issue of having a really non-fun summer because of no money. Because I will be staff, DH and I can golf there now, so I think we will go every Monday for a date night and take advantage of that! It is the most exclusive golf club in our province and so this is a big plus.

Ugh, I think we might have gone overboard on gifts for K.
Trying to figure if there is anything that I can keep for Christmas or if I should just give them all to her for her birthday. Good news is we didn't pay much for all of it thanks to sales, rewards, and gift cards.
