I feel SO guilty and terrible, as I just completely lost it and shouted at Bill, who, however annoying he gets, obviously doesn't realise what he's doing to me with his constant nagging and wittering.
We had a lovely afternoon yesterday, as I drove us 40 miles each way to go to Slimbridge (wildlife and wetlands place), and Bill really enjoyed it. He didn't know who I was when we got home though , and as I stopped the car outside our house he asked "Will my wife be at home?" I settled him down, but he kept asking "Where's the other one" and "Where's everyone else gone?"
During the evening he went in to the kitchen, and called to me "Are you in the washing machine?" - but then, unusually, had insight into what he'd just said, and roared with laughter, more than he has for a long long time. We went to bed, and Bill slept really well for once.
This morning he woke up in a really bad mood, and while I was setting the table for breakfast he took his pyjama trousers off and came downstairs without them. I suggested he put them back on to have his breakfast (our routine is that he showers after eating - meanwhile I finish off my pot of tea, then go and help him dress, shave, put in hearing aids etc.) He got really angry, said I'm always bossing him about, insisted on having his hearing aids put in before getting in the shower - etc etc etc.....so many issues that I can't now remember them all. Throughout I managed to stay generally calm, though was a bit upset when the usual stream of nagging ended with him shouting at me for not doing up his shirt buttons properly (really???).
So it continued, though while he shut his eyes I did come on here
to report in for weigh-in. Then, the nagging started again, and, honestly, I'd just had enough, and screeched at him like a fishwife.
I know you'll all understand - I don't feel I can burden anyone else with all this. Just typing this has made me feel a bit better (UNTIL NOW!!! - he's telling me I haven't pegged the washing out properly!!! And that it's time I cooked the lunch!!!
I feel like saying very naughty words!
