I try, y'all. Organization and planning has never been his strong suit (ADHD), but it's mine. He has many fine qualities, but those just aren't among them. Usually we make it work. But on occasion, things get completely fucked up.
I posted earlier that Thursday is moving day. He called me 10 min. ago and said that he "may have told our agent that we could be out of the house by 6 p.m. tomorrow and then forgot." Why would he even do that? We close Thursday, why on earth would we have all of our stuff out and then...what? "Where would we even sleep?" I asked him. He said he "figured" we'd "just" get a hotel for the night. With a 5 y.o. and a 9 m.o. I mean, we've traveled, but that's not getting the kids up and ready for school. While moving. I just...
To humor him, I called our movers to see if they could reschedule for tomorrow. Of course they can't, of course they're completely booked, this is their busy season. So I reiterated that we have a signed sales contract that says we close and the buyers get possession Thursday, and he went back to "Well, I told [Realtor] we could be out tomorrow night." I wasn't a bitch about it, I was completely calm and just told him I guessed his next call would be to Realtor.
I don't mean to be spiteful, but this is a clear case of "you made this mess, now clean it up." Really, I hate that I make him sound like a complete and total doofus, because a lot of the time he's not. But when he is, he really, really is.
Breathe in, 1-2-3-4-5, breathe out, 1-2-3-4-5.
