My husband is an as$- anyone else need to vent?

Eggs are still one of the cheapest animal-based protein sources even at the elevated prices. I got lucky yesterday. I bought two dozen eggs at Target yesterday. I use the app to scan everything. In-store price was 4.49 but online 2.99. They matched the online prices.

Does he buy any coffee or fast food or entertainment? Ten bucks goes fast. Your egg purchase will create great memories for your kids and is cheaper than lots of other things you could do.

Have fun with your eggs. They are worth it.

Yep, you are married to a man.  

Mine went to the grocery store this morning and I got a frantic phone call. He locked his keys in the car. I threw on some clothes and drove to the store. I was expecting to see his groceries still in the shopping cart as he didn't  have his keys. Nope, he had put his groceries into the back end of the car and shut it on the keys which were laying with the groceries.

I asked him why he didn't just open it back up as you have to actually lock it with a key. It was unlocked and all he had to do was open it and get his keys. So all day I have been randomly saying you really fucked up today didn't you and then laughing like a loon.

I luck out in the eggs department. A family up the hill from us sells free-range farm eggs for $3.00 a dozen. They are beautiful and fresh. Unwashed too, so they keep longer.

I laughed when they apologized at the end of summer for raising the price from $2.50 a dozen to $3.00!

Okay, that's hilarious. I'd be more likely to do that vs. my husband, but I'll giggle with you anyway! 

I’m impressed that 18 eggs were $5. It’s a little over $5 for a dozen in my part of Tennessee.

But I totally validate you. It’s crazy and there’s not much we can do about the cost of things. It’s not going to go down either.

He hates the prices, and you get the blame? Give him that $20 weekly budget he thinks should work, and send him with your regular, weekly list.

I'm seeing MHIAA as a Reddit board, like IATA (grin). Might even be there, as I haven't looked.

Can I join? Here is a good one although it’s not entirely his fault but it is. Missed 3 weeks of his paycheck (3 checks!) because he was sick with Covid. Now I know he can’t help that BUT he won’t get the shot. So I’m pissed. I got Covid too and didn’t have any energy to do anything for a week. At least I got paid! I haven’t been able to go Xmas shopping or holiday shopping for anyone really. No fun at all. I’m going to be going nuts on Friday trying to tie up everything in one flipping day.

Wow!!! I guess i needed to vent also... love the man more then life but seriously dude... get ur head outta ur ass!!!

Wow bitching about $5 for 18 eggs? Send him down under and he'll have something to moan about. I happily pay $9.00 a dozen because the farm they come from only has 200 hens free-ranging per hectare. Cheap eggs usually means lower welfare for the birds unless you get them straight from the farm.
As for annoying husbands? Mine has been on holidays for 3 weeks and getting underfoot. Just when I thought he couldn't get any more irritating, he got covid and turned into a complete baby, lol. Now I have to do all the Christmas prep myself (inside and outside), for a celebration that might not go ahead if I get it too!

Our family get together for Christmas has changed this year. We are getting together on Christmas Eve instead of Christmas day. My DH asked if it was for just the meal or meal and gift exchange. My tongue was bleeding from biting back a sarcastic reply.

I could vent as well....

My whole family has been begging for a dog for years and I have been the holdout. They have always insisted that they would help with the dog and everything that goes with it. Well, I had a moment of weakness/insanity/impulsivity on Monday when I saw a Facebook ad from a friend saying that her friend had puppies for sale at a much discounted price. Anyway, we ended up getting the puppy. We were totally not prepared. House isn't puppy proofed, no supplies, etc. So the last two days I have been trying to finish Christmas stuff as well as potty train this dog, wiping up pee, running to stores to get different dog items, etc. DH said he thought she needed a bath and guess who ended up giving her the bath while DH showered? I kind of got snippy with him. I'm just tired of the mess and that nobody else seems to care or do simple things that would help make things easier. It's also super cold (-13 without the wind chill) and snowing so running errands and going in and out of work appts has been really annoying. Most of the time I am still cold when I get to the next place. It also isn't that conducive to potty training a puppy.
