So my birthday is Wed and DH has been working a ton lately days and then nights on house projects. He had been super stressed. The last two weekends he helped his parents move his gram's stuff out of her apt and put stuff in our garage for a yard sale. Then last night he said he told his brother he would help him move today.
Eh so I got pissy and he said I want to so I am going to help. I said I wasn't going to fight (we were out). This morning I explained that he hadn't mentioned my bday at all and that I assumed it was because he was so stressed about work and house projects. I said I knew I was being bratty but I could accept when it was for his mom who just lost her mom, or for baby (building me a rocking chair) or even work because we need the money... But now I just feel like last place. His brother has a tiny apt and like four people helping. DH does not need to help.
So then he felt really badly and made plans for us to go down to Newport tonight and stay over and do stuff tomorrow. But we have a dog and I have school work and housework. I can't just drop everything?! Plus I feel crappy.
Do I go? It will be fun and it is what I wanted to do for my birthday just not last minute. Don't go? I basically guilted him into it and that is no fun. Plus we both are going to be thinking about I the dog is okay and about all the stuff we have to do. But I will hurt his feelings if I said no - he was so excited to be making it up to me.
And now I am crying. Stupid pregnancy hormones! Eh!
And if you read all that - you rock. Would you go? If not, how would you tell DH no?

Re: Long story, need opinion
Some alone time with DH would be nice. I just feel blah today so I needed your perspectives to push me there.
Find someone to stop in and take care of your pup and get away for a bit.
Have fun! I wish I was going...
