We have had some busy days recently and OH was looking very tired yesterday so I suggested we would have at least one, maybe two days off to rest and sleep as much as he needed. He said he thought that would be a good idea. I thought I may even manage a day off if I decided only essential housework is done and everything goes well. I planned a nice, easy (not too much washing up) meal with a bottle of wine followed by a couple of hours watching an Andre Rieu DVD. It sounded like heaven.
OH was sitting in our living room watching the workmen doing roadworks up the road from us. I was getting the running commentary. 'He has just picked up his broom, he is sweeping the path, that bloke is bringing some soil and putting it on the green, that bloke has moved the fencing' etc. I decided I would have a bath before I started dinner. I know this has it's risks but was prepared to take the chance.
As I was in the bath I heard OH go into the downstairs toilet. When I was dressed, I realised I hadn't heard him come out. Oh Oh!! I went to investigate to find a huge mess, OH in tears and the result of his 'cleaning up' (bleach everywhere).
There goes my day off then. Luckily, it wasn't as bad as it could have been, OH was soon bathed and put back into bed. Now there's just dinner to negotiate. Can anything else go wrong?
