    Is there anyway you can go away for a few days and leave him to do everything? He may be more appreciative if he realises how much you really do! Maybe stay with a friend?

    Is he good with the kids?

    Stargirl29 might have an idea there Bella... maybe just a couple of nights with a friend would do the trick? Hope you get things sorted though.

    I agree too, maybe even just a night away would scare him into putting a bit more effort in... you deserve more, especially considering all you've been through recently *hugs* xxx

    I think you definitely need to break the cycle bella as nothing will ever change if not.
    This may be the best time to leave him with the kids for a few days cos they won't be missing school if he doesn't get them up in time.

    The fact that he can't do housework is a cop-out on his behalf methinks (ie, If I do it crap enough she'll do it for me!!)

    You need the break & he needs a kick up the backside before you start feeling really resentful.

    I hope you get it sorted. You can always have a girls night with us in the Compers!!
    The Rock Chick, she say 'courtesy costs nowt' - spread the word! :D

    I say put your foot down bella... the answer to his question is "you will". Easy for me to say I know.
