Another slightly strange development this morning.
Last night was again pretty standard pleasent and W was in a good mood when she woke this morning, but then starting shouting from upstairs as my oldest was shouting a bit as couldn't do what he was playing with. I was trying to do lunches, wash up, get my work stuff ready etc and W telling me to go help him, whereas I'm like, I'm not going in there every 30 seconds cause he presses a button twice !!! He can wait a min. Apparently I am right out of line for doing that and should drop anything as soon as kids moan as it winds W up. I mean...WTF, take quicker getting ready and come help.
My W is always ok when kids in bed asleep and also when not with them. When they are about, she is always on edge and changes into super alien.
I remained calm throughout this and when leaving the house said have a nice day and hope getting hair done cheersa you up, to which I got 'I'll be alrright once you've left' ... LOL. Slight change from 'It's living with you' but same difference. The bit I find so funny is that so many people think she would crumble without me, I do a lot of stuff, that might not seem much but add it to one persons daily chores and it would quickly add up.
I did also say to my W (slightly sarcastically so not the best I guess but meant to be with a slight humour in it), swearing in front of kids all the time, never using manners, shouting at me, great lessons your teaching them. Slightly wrong maybe, but I've asked her not to swear and say please and TY for things as it's what they will see. Not for me, but for them and it doea annoy me, but only to the fact that it is harmful to my kids. I've taken it all with a pinch of salt, but like to let it out on here.
