My 2 year old got his tonsils and adenoids out on Monday, so I took the week off so I could stay home and take care of of him. Honestly, when I’m home most of the time my husband can be a real POS in my opinion. I’ve been sleeping on an air mattress in his room, so I can give him his medicine in the middle of the night, and if he wakes up he doesn’t have to cry to get me up. My husband did offer to rotate the nights so I could get some sleep, so I’ll give him that. But I told him I got it because I’m off work, and he has to work in the morning and I know I’d never hear the end of it.

This morning we got into an argument. He only wakes up 20-30 minutes before he has to be at work. So he wakes up, puts his clothes on, brushes his teeth and leaves. I’m a smoker (I know it’s terrible, I don’t want to hear about it), and I won’t smoke with my son in the room, so I woke him up and put our son in the bed with him so I could go smoke since I won’t be able to again until he’s napping or we go outside. He got super shitty with me, saying he had the door closed for a reason and he wanted to sleep longer. Even though I slept like crap, and all I wanted was 10 minutes to myself to smoke before he left for work. It’s like this every time I’m home. He doesn’t think about anything he could do to make my life easier, I do literally everything. He comes home from work and sits in his chair and turns on the TV; he might play with our son a little bit but if anything needs done it’s on me.

To be fair, when I’m working it’s different. He cooks dinner, we go outside together and we all play. It’s like when I’m home, he has 0 respect for what I’m doing and what I might need.

Rant over, thank you
