Not ya mother!

Yet again I have come here to make up another whingy blog about my beloved other half.

Just the usual things. He is a lazy slob and the 'excuse' I'm sick may be true at the start of this week but what about all the other times? AND I have been sick as with a stupid head cold shitty thing since friday (oh he had the shivers and felt cold and fair enough yesterday had tummy bug) YET on Monday, when I had the day off as I couldnt bloody move other than to blow my nose of throw up some, I still some how managed to get up and since I was crook all weekend (and he did NOTHING!) the mess was to bad and I did the dishes (which he couldnt even put away tuesday/wednesday - just the cutlery was left as well) I cleaned up the bathroom and the loo and vaccumed. Did I mention the 2 loads of washing that was washed/dried?? All this while I am struggling to breath with a red peeling sore nose!?

I HAVE HAD IT!!

I feel like a Mum, "Mark, please put you cup in the sink when your finished ok sweety? Ah thats a good boy!" - "Mark hang up your wet towel over the rail so it dries and isnt stinky ok?" - "Mark sweety, when you have finished eating something with a wrapper, it goes in the bin" -- and when he hasnt got someone there encouraging him to do the right, simple and NICE thing to do, I am left cleaning up his mess as if I dont (weekend a prime example) no one will.

I made him watch the breakup and for like a day I thought the message had got through. I have been patient and I have been trying so hard but if he really can not change and do something for himself, or at least say "thanks for keeping the house clean and not letting it look like a pig sty" instead of walking in and making it look worse than before, can I really stay in this relationship?? I love him and all, and there are plenty of good things but the dutiful housewife is not my role. I want a partnership, where we do things equally. Sure he cooks BUT I am left to do the dishes with every dish in the house having been used. I love him and stuff but I am really questioning if I can live with him and if the answer ends up being No... where does that leave us??

I just hope when I get home tonight the house is still clean as I am serious on the threat that if its not - tonight he will be sleeping at his mothers.... until such a time he can pick up after himself! If he ever will!!
