DH is away & all hell breaks loose!!!
The Husband is away for 5 days for his friends bachelor party. The first two days went by nice, I went shopping and Skyped a few people without feeling guilty of being loud. Then..... I get a knock on my door and it's my super saying the lady below me has a leaking ceiling. Long story short, it's not coming from us but they had to get into the ceiling of DH's closet. So that means I have to take everything out, and for some reason he has some really heavy crap in there! As I sit here, I hear them banging away and using power drills and just making a mess.... I deserve a honeymoon after this!
The evil me wants me to leave his stuff out and have him deal with it all, but the nice 50's housewife in me wants to put it all back. I've been told by friends to leave it out, haha! What would you do with this mess?
Re: DH is away & all hell breaks loose!!!
clean it up myself since technically it would be my mess. Plus sweet gestures between spouses are the best. As long as it's a two way street of course
EDIT: ohh ok never mind since you can't even deal with it yet.
I'm sorry this made me laugh
Oh yeah, I'd leave it out. Eventhough it's not his fault, I would want him to see what happened. Also...
I'm just a girl, I "need" him to do all the heavy lifting around here. Makes him feel usefull.
Think for just one second how you would feel if the situation was reversed and you came home from a fun trip with friends to find that H had left you stuff out because of a broken pipe that wasn't your fault.........
If you are this *put out* by the situation how are you going to handle all the other craziness in the future of your marriage?
He didn't create the mess either! I'm sure if she was gone and he was the one at home dealing with it she would have wanted him to take care of her stuff!
THIS.
OP, don't be crazycakes
This is all hell breaking loose?
You're right, totes deserving of a honeymoon. And by honeymoon, I mean eye roll.
Well the nest has gotten so bad lately that this actually isn't he most immature post I've seen today.
I recently went to a bachelorette. Dh took care of nine pets while I was gone, cleaned the house and packed my lunch for Monday. It's nice having a partner who supports you and makes your life easier rather than keeping score and holding onto stupid resentments. It's not like he flooded the apartment on purpose.
LOVE this!
