Last week I got bitten by midges or something horrid due to all the hot weather. I am very allergic to insect bites so they have swollen up and got worse, which I knew they would as I suffer with it every summer but usually only abroad. Had my usual anti-allergy pills, creams etc with no better results and can't get in to see a doc til next week, so have just been putting up with it feeling a bit itchy and miserable. Had a little bit of sympathy off the bloke, but generally just not said anything.
OH didn't do his houseworkly jobs last week til I made him after I told him I thought the lack of hoovering was not helping if we had dust mites or whatever, so eventually he cleaned our carpet and I have scrubbed the place top to bottom, changed bedding, hoovered mattresses, sanitised everywhere (including the cats in case it was fleas or something they had brought in from the garden). Asked OH to buy me more tablets which he forgot to do of course.
Lo and behold this morning he discovered, with an amusing look of fear and horror, a tiny little itchy bump on his leg and now it's all 'we must deal with this', 'something needs to be done' and rushing off to the chemist to buy a million antidotes blah blah blah. Bloody men! Mine are like huge red scabby pancakes on my leg (most attractive) and he doesn't bat an eyelid, but no when his precious skin has a small dot on it, it's the end of the world.
I can't be the only one. What irritating things have your OHs done?
