I still work from home whereas the wife is physically out at work everyday. Puppy is 10 weeks old and I'm a bit out of my depth having never owned a dug before. Anyway, doing my bit by taking him outside every hour, after a kip, after his scran etc but he'll have the odd accident in the house. Wife goes radge when I tell her he's pished/shat once or twice in the house "ffs!! he's not going to learn if you keep letting him do his toileting indoors, I hope you're taking him out straight away and putting him in his crate when he's sleeping, are you training him during feeding times? are you giving him praise where appropriate? are you giving him sufficient physical and mental play?....and why is the hoose a tip?". Honestly boils my blood when I'm trying to work as well. Summer holidays soon (wife works in a school) so can't wait for a bit of respite during the day. Take her outside and put her in a crate FFS.

scottsdad Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 We are both working from home today. She has put some music on, which is normally not bad. She's put on a playlist consisting of just Carpenters songs. Feels like I am drowning in liquid sugar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on my own tomorrow so can play whatever I like. Trouble is, even the music I normally like I am a bit bored with. Just one of those moods I guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busta Nut Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 On a side note, I am amazed at the amount of procrastinating she does. Well the moaning about her work cases is what's getting on ma tits 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Asking you to clean the bathroom ahead of somebody visiting, staggering in at 1:30, and then spewing heavily tomato-based red curry sauce all over the shiny bath, up three of the scrubbed bathroom walls and all across the mopped floor, leaving you cleaning it up at 3am (to avoid it staining the whites overnight). Without exaggeration, you'd have thought that Vincent Vega had shot Marv' in there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without exaggeration, you'd have thought that Vincent Vega had shot Marv' in there. Many years ago, my wife and I were staying at her mum's house. We went out at night, I got utterly blootered, came home and puked all over the bathroom. Mostly in the bath. I started cleaning it up when my mother-in law came in. I told her that it was the wife that did it, and she believed me. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
