DH/SO fails

[lovetruly2015]

Come share your funny wtf moments because sometimes they just don't get it.

Just so it's clear I did not start this with the intent of have a bashing thread just a place to share our stories.

Im in the process of cleaning out or bedroom so we can set up Jackson's space as well as an organized pumping area. However to do that I need to go through all our clothes and things that are just hanging around. So I asked DH if he could bring home boxes since he's can get them from his parts suppliers and that. Well after a conversation about putting stuff I plan on donating in a bag and trying to explain to him I still need boxes. He does as I ask kind of. He brought home a box. One box.
This is only part of what I need to go through not including the closet and laundry baskets. Plus there is all of his clothes as well. And he brought home one box. No hunny that's not enough. Lol

Haha. Unless it's a Mary Poppins box you're going to need more than one!!

Lol yeah. He tired and he may still come home with more. It's just our ideas of organization are so different that im sure in his mind that was enough. Sorta like when I asked for something to store my pumping stuff in. I showed him a picture of what I was thinking of and he came home with two storage drawer container things they work for now but everything is mixed together and set on top of eachother and it drives me crazy. I will definitely be looking for something else once it comes time. Im not a very organized person but once I decided to do it, it has to be just right and everything has to have its own place or I can't deal. Im werid.

Doesn't sound weird to me! If I want something organized, it needs to be organized perfectly to my standards for me to be happy. So if you're weird then I am too!

My husband is a neat freak with OCD so he's always trying to get rid of stuff we need. We have a 4 year old boy and a 1 year old boy and he legit tried to convince me to donate the 4 year old's clothes and re-buy clothes for the 1 year old just so we wouldn't have to store them. #JustNo
Oh and 24 hours into my 36 hour labor with my 1 year old, he told me he was tired. Poor guy.

DH had his own pregnancy brain moment last weekend...he wanted to take the kids for smoothies and I asked him to drop me at the grocery store in the same shopping complex so I could grab a few things while they got their smoothies. So I shop, check out and text him that I'm walking over to meet them at the smoothie shop. He texts back "wait, there's a smoothie king by the store?" Um, yeah, you can see it from the grocery store, they're like 75 yards apart. He drove all the way to the other smoothie location that's like 5 miles away. Dafuq, DH?!?

Lol MH is always telling me how tired he is. Sure he gets up early and works hard all day, but the big issue is he stays up till 1 am or so most nights for no good reason (like, he was organizing his Yugioh cards). And I'm the one since day one that gets up with DD in the middle of the night (he doesn't wake up "useful" in the middle of the night) and he sleeps in on weekends and takes naps every chance he gets. I'm so jealous of his ability to nap whenever and wherever.

My DH is the same way that man could fall asleep anywhere. However for me its a never ending battle it feels like. So jealous.

My husband also complained about being tired from my overnight labor. He stayed with us at the hospital the first night but didn't get up to help with the baby. Then he went home the next night and left me alone with the baby because he "didn't sleep well at the hospital."

I was vomiting off and on Saturday because our one year old brought home a stomach virus and she was miserable from having a low grade fever. So he left the two of us home alone while he picked up some stuff at the grocery store. Then he texted me that someone had used a lure at a pokestop by the store so he sat in his car four thirty extra minutes collecting Pokemon.

Omg I'd be livid! MH would do something like that too, and then be all excited to tell me and not understand why I'm upset. Lol, men are special creatures.
