When she got mad at him later that day, he just got up and left, leaving her to deal with the kids alone and have even less chance of a rest

She goes on to stress to her readers how absolutely exhausted she is and shares that her right eyelid twitches constantly thanks to her surviving on tea, sugary drinks, and what she calls a ‘convenience food’diet.
OP then says a relative recently offered to have all three kids over for the night so that she could get some well-deserved rest. She adds that her parents-in-law have two of the threechildrenovernight once a week, so this would be a real treat.
Well, she says she couldn’t get to sleep early but had her hopes set on having a good, long snooze in the morning. Her husband, however, had other plans, and casually woke her up to ask her questions about stuff they’d already cleared up the night before.
From what OP tells us in her post, we think it’s safe to say her husband was just plain inconsiderate. He of all people should’ve known how precious her sleep was. So, what can she do to make sure this never happens again? We went looking for answers.
