Am I being unreasonable?

I’m just after some honest advice because I’m getting a little annoyed with my wife and I don’t know how to deal with it and if I’m the one being unreasonable (I don’t think I am).

Being retired I spend most of my days watching pointless YouTube videos, and most days when my wife finishes her 8 hour day working from home she starts hoovering and dusting the house which often happens when I’m in the middle of watching a particularly pointless but interesting YouTube video.

I have asked her not to vacuum so often or do it when I’m in bed at the weekend and not when I’m watching YouTube vids, but she often swears at me saying it won’t ≈≈≈≈≈≈≈ clean itself.

How do you think I should approach this without causes any upset?

You’re not being unreasonable at all MH retirement is time to do what you want to do when you want to do it, tell Mrs MH it’ll be her turn one day one in the meantime Hoover when it’s best for you 🤣🤣🤣

Mind you, I’m pretty sure you’re joking but that is exactly how OH is. He’s not joking though. He really is like that.

Thank you and I am older than Mrs MH and I do remind her that she will retire younger than I did, but she just mutters swear words😢

Would she mind you hoovering and dusting while she’s working? when she finishes work you could then watch videos. We have wooden floors so only hoover the stairs and we sweep and only dust when it’s dusty! I thought I was on mums net when I saw the title!
