Idk if I’m exaggerating

I’ve always loved the holidays!
When I met my partner he didn’t care about holidays and decorations. Since we moved in together 6 years ago he started loving it which I’m glad he does now. But this years he’s getting on my nerves about the holidays. We moved to smaller place, we don’t have storage like the previous apartment. He’s been wanting to decorate since the beginning of the month, I tell him to wait for summer to be almost over and he says I suck. He’s been buying so many decoration and changing almost everything around the apartment, he came home with 3 packages today and bought a cover for our electric stove (yes is pretty, but all I’m thinking about is I will have more stuffs to clean). Tbh I feel like he’s killing the vibe for me, I don’t feel excited about decorating when he’s pressuring and buying lots of stuffs. If I tell him how I feel he’ll get mad, say I suck and say I’m killing the vibe for him so I just stay quiet.

I don’t think it would be crazy of you to tell him how you feel. And that you would like him to leave you some room to decorate too.. as you’ve always loved the holidays .

Leaving my husband

How do I leave my husband as a sahm? I have no family near me so I really have no support. No job or money. I have nothing. I’m so unhappy in my marriage. I communicate my feelings and nothing ever changes. Any advice or tips on how to get out of this?

Do you thank your husband for doing tasks you would’ve had to do?

Do you say thank you when he does something that you think he should’ve just done but you had to ask him to do? Lately I’ve been trying to be kinder about the way I communicate to my husband and a big thing has been me just trying to ask him to do things instead of being upset and snapping about having to do them or just telling him to do it. I feel torn because I don’t get thanked for doing everything else, but I know he likes the acknowledgment and it makes me seem nicer in his eyes but I also feel like I’m parenting him too when I have to ask him to do things and even tho I am thankful he did it, I don’t want to have to ask. He’s the type of guy that wants me to just make him a list of things to do but I just feel like he’s acting like a child when I do. I don’t want to micro manage him but I think that’s what he wants, even tho he wants to do everything on his schedule, I have to still tell him what to do. Part of me feels like I’m enabling bad habits but is this common in relationships? Newly married and new parents so we are still figuring out things together.

Am I wrong?

BD has taken our 7 month old away for 2 nights and 3 days so that he can spend time with his family.
Baby has never been away from me for longer than 4 hours.
I asked if they could go for 1 long day rather than that lomg as it seemed excessive but once again there's never any compromise.

Trollies

I know Morrisons have the cute little toddler trollies, I’m just wondering if there are any other places that have toddler trollies that they can push themselves while we go shopping? Any suggestions greatly appreciated thank you 😊
