CALGON TAKE ME AWAY

Let me ask you a question, have you ever had a sick husband to take care of? Well if you haven't then don't request one cause they are definitely the biggest babies ever!! I thought my kids were bad when they were little, but actually they were a piece of cake compared to taking care of Wayne. My patience runs out after about 20 minutes of listening to him moan and groan and watching him hunched over as if he was a 90 year old man. At first it can be a little comical but that wears off very quickly. And demanding, oh my gosh, I want to run screaming from the house. You would think he was deathly sick and not just having a bout with the stomach virus. Surely I don't act like that when I get sick.....oh wait, I don't usually get sick with stuff like that. Most of the time I will get a sinus or respiratory infection. Maybe I kinda act like a big baby too, but even if I did I don't have anyone around here to listen to me moan and groan. Wayne asks, "Can I do anything for you? When I say no, then he is out the door for 4 or 5 hours before he ever comes back to check on me, he did this even after I had back surgery 3 times. I could have fell off the couch and tore my incision open and no one would have come to check on me for hours....lol!

I guess I should more patient and understanding, but you have to understand after 31 1/2 years of this I tend to get a little annoyed and expect him to toughen up and stop being such a baby. He can cut his finger half off or bust his leg all up and never miss a beat, but let him get a stomach virus and watch out, someone I don't recognize emerges. Actually I am just being a little cranky right now, I wouldn't have him any other way cause he is a wonderful husband and I love him more now than the day we married. It's just been one of them days......lol

Miss my sweet lil PeeWee!

Have you never seen that commercial? It is a product that you put in your bath to relax you when you have had a rough day. I have seen that commercial many times over the last 25 years.
