Why do men have to be so frustrating at times! Oh my gosh! Last night I had an argument with my husband over our house and all the work that needs to be done that hasn't. I go to bed early most nights because I'm just flat-out exhausted. Last night I was getting our son to sleep and he came in the room and asked if I was going to go to sleep early, like I do every night. He then said that if I woke him up this moring asking to help get the baby ready for school, he would throw something at me. I looked at him point blank and asked if he was threatening me. He didn't respond to that, but said that all the housework just isn't getting done and he's tired of having to do everything himself (uh, excuse me?). He said that he was going to bed and not locking the door or turning off any lights, etc. Then he reminded me that the dishwasher needed to be unloaded and laundry needed to be folded and put away, not to mention that the floors need vacuuming and bathroom floor needs cleaning. He gave me 2 options: either I take care of it all, or I hire someone to come in and clean the house. then he went upstairs to our room and shut the door. I was so upset. I got the baby to sleep, then went downstairs and watched Grey's Anatomy (it was good, but not as good as I expected - glad that Meredith didn't die!) I also folded the laundry that was sitting in the basket waiting for folding.

Why does he do this to me! I feel so overwhelmed that I just can't keep up with it all! Mother, wife, housekeeper, full-time job that I'm away almost 11 hours a day from, cook, cleaner. It's simply too much. What does he do? He works, has a very important job that is very demanding (have to give him credit), snowboards, rides his bike when he's not in the mountains. Does he clean? Rarely (can't say never because he is able and does so occasionally but doesn't want to). sometimes he'll pick up dinner if I don't want to cook. Sorry for the rant, but I feel better now after getting it out. And still, I love him. but i'm just so damn frustrated!
