Who or what in your life is being a TW?

My brother and SIL. I text them on Saturday to see if they were up for a quick call (so we could tell them what the gender of the baby is). SIL said she was working, bro didn’t answer. So I sent a text back saying when they were together to just give us a quick call. Nothing. Still nothing. He’s such a prick and his wife is a total TW. I can’t stand her.

DH is the TW today. Every so often he just has to text to complain that he isn't getting enough action, today I didn't join the conversation, told him we are too old for him to be sending that text and not talk in person and that he had been sick the last week and a half and I can't afford to be sick and pregnant and work. He said we are like roommates, I'd fire him as a roommate seeing as I do the cleaning and picking up, shopping, planning and turning off the gd lights. Having to pick up his used qtips by the couch and dishes everywhere doesn't turn me on. It's always "just tell me and I'll do it" and then it's "get off my back". Guess who cleaned up the waffle batter mess on the stove after waiting over a week for him to do it.... sorry but I'm f*ing tired.

@MaximumEffort Sounds like you might be living with a manchild. Might be time for an attitude adjustment!

Hospitals that are WAY too huge and confusing so I can't simply take my kid to the pediatrician, but have to exhaust myself running around for a half hour LOST and looking like a crazy person and getting there late because of it too. And having to PAY parking in a garage miles from where I even needed to be! So convenient.

@MaximumEffort I feel this in my soul. You shouldn’t have to tell a grown up to clean up after themselves. When my DH starts with that crap I like to serenade him with songs such as, “Every little thing that you do, I’m so in love with you, it just keeps getting better...” it’s so fun and effective. And, you can only have the grown up conversation of, you’re terrible at adulting and it’s not sexy for me to pick up your toenail clippings, so many times.

I have today off, had a stressful day at work yesterday with TW family members that we gave an inch and they took a mile and made the day worst for everyone. I left after 13 hours at work after calling up the supervisor. Slept in today only because DS came to our bed and stayed asleep then I got to pick up, do laundry, do the dishes, grind coffee and clean up after others then it was take DD to softball, go to the grocery store to feed everyone and back to softball.  I'm exhausted, my back is killing me, I look 90 when walking but DH wanted me to take the kid home to give him a bath when I asked him to do it.

I'm showering, eating some cheesecake I bought myself and going to bed.

@RoseShadow873 I hear you on hospitals.  I work at one that's like 5 or 6 buildings but connect on different floors.  I park in the employee lot by my building. Walk 2 over to get in and 3 over to get to my unit. When I had to take DD there for a pediatrician we would park and walk what seemed forever then have to wait and just watch the parking price add up.
