Well that was an eventful weekend , managed to get the tent up with the help of his mate and having arrived and took a ton of painkillers because i just happened to have a major flare up and was barely able to move . Nothing went right i managed to scald myself knocking the kettle over and his mate was horrified i couldnt even feel it , the total lack of any concern for me by my dearly beloved shocked him even more . Other half admittedly was a horrible colour and surrounded by his back slapping mates at least he wasnt daft enough to drink on top of his pills , hed ridden on this new to him 3 wheeled monster all of 5 miles and hed struggled . i eventually managed to get the gate staff to understand that i needed vehicular access 24 7 in case of emergency so we ended up in a quiet corner near the main gate . it was sunny but blowing a gale just to make matters fun . It managed to blow his scooter over and he realized there was no chance he could have shifted it on his own , good job his cronies are a strong bunch . At 2am his mate was squealing in his tent , weve known him years, he has PTSD from being in the military a lot of years ago and from time to time things set him off , i think it was a combination of the wind through the tents and the crow scarers in the fields behind . Once he was settled with a cuppa himself decided he didnt feel well and needed to go home so at first light im driving him home having abandoned everything at the campsite watching all the deer in peoples gardens eating the bedding plants ..lol ..he slept a few hours and by 7am announced he wanted to go back . So i went back with him so i could cook breakfast , hes enthroned holding court with all the folks he knows and im trying to get some sleep . fat chance........he announces he wants to go home after dinner because they have a Paul Weller tribute act on that night and he bloody detests it . So he sits and holds court while i have to pack everything up AAARRGGHHH nobody offered to help with that did they . ive been asleep for 24 hours since i got back apart from the inevitable nursey duties and im fit to drop and its only Monday !!!
Why do you put up with it?I certainly wouldn’t.Barbarax
ReplyDeleteYou took the words out of my mouth , I would not put up with being bossed around like that .
DeleteGot to say I agree with Barbara - they all seem to that you like a bloody skivvy! You should get some of your husbands kids to take him for a bit as you are on strike and see if he appreciates you a bit more after that! Just disgraceful - the lot of them!
ReplyDeleteI agree - if that were me I'd flatly refuse to do anything for any of them, him included. Ungrateful sods.
ReplyDeleteAfraid the boy would be on his own. I couldn’t/wouldn’t
ReplyDeleteI've just read this - It does sound a bit too familiar of what I put up with-but this one only had his mother and sister to support his nonsense -rather than mates - His mother is dead -and as his health mentally and physically is failing he is extra troublesome-He clearly doesn't care one jot for my health so I'm being strong and pulling back for my own well-being xx
ReplyDeleteYou need more than just a medal for that - you need a row of them!
