Hiii!
Currently stuck sitting in bed bc I’m stuck being attached to an icing machine. Like this thing wraps around my cast and pulses ice water around to help with the pain and swelling. 🤷🏻♀️ The dr said to keep it on as much as possible for 2-3 days. Even while I sleep😳
Dh is being helpful but kind of a shithead about it. Day 1 and I’m over his inability to help unless I give explicit details and directions. Dude I have my dominant hand in a fucking cast. I can barely dress myself or use a fork properly with my left hand! jfc.
Anyone have fun plans for the 4th?

yellowcat lol. We used our last date night to go shopping for curtains so we are equally as cool LOL After a nap yesterday DH was a lot nicer and more helpful so I’m hoping he was just being a cranky jerk and with better sleep last night he’ll be better today. I STTN which was a mistake. I should have set an alarm for pain meds bc it’s hurting a lot right now ugh. Just waiting for them to kick in now....

Im also sprry you are in a cast. Are you feeling ok? Sometimes i just think dh need to be alone with the kid to get it. Staying at home with j has done wonders for dh and me leaving then for 3 days really helped dh understand bedtime and motn. |

Oh no @starzia I’m so sorry!! How did you get it??
Right now it’s just annoying bc I need help and N needs help. I’m doing so much on my own it’s irritating bc I KNOW if roles were reversed I’d be helping dh a lot more.
With N, it’s just that we have very different ways we do things so I’m sitting there like “... why haven’t you changed his overnight diaper? He pooped and we know his skin is super sensitive. Also he smells.” And DHs response is “what’s another ten, twenty minutes if he’s been in it for a few hours?” Like what?????? Or for breakfast its already 8:30 and dh isn’t doing anything to get it ready. And he’s like “he doesn’t need to eat at the same time every day...” like... we have him on a schedule for a reason soooo actually yes, we do need to make his breakfast now....
Sigh.

addymac i swear guys just dont get it. Dh is good about diaper changes but eating its like well if its 30 minutes to an hour late its fine...um nope its not. I also totally agree that when a man is doen the woman does 500 times more for him then he would do for her when shes down.

addymac I hope you have a speedy recovery and don’t beat your H with your cast in the meantime. 😉 @starzia Oh no! HFM is terrible. So sorry and I’ll cross fingers the rest of your family doesn’t get it.

L only slept 5 hours last night. And then took a 2 hr nap around 9:30 this morning. I need it to be bedtime ASAP. I’m so tired bc before she got up I had also been up with DS. Sleep, children!
Our neighborhood is having a block party Thurs, so we are going to do that. We are traveling for my family reunion this weekend.. should be interesting. DH and I haven’t gone since we got married 10 years ago.

I’m glad your surgery went ok but sorry DH is being a shithead. Guys are the worst sometimes.

Omfg @starzia , I’m sooooo sorry about the HFM, that’s terrible. I hope your kiddos are spared. Haha so was I but I noticed just in time ;-) addymac glad surgery went well, and I hope DH will get the memo about helping out. I can't stand it either when D needs changing and he says he'll do it then continues to sit playing behind his pc .. I'm like.. she's pooped and would like a fresh bum, I'll do it myself, don't say you'll do it then don't. Grah. Are you still stuck to the icing machine? can I borrow it for our next 35C days without a/c lol?? Sorry for all the sleepy (or should I say not sleeping) kiddos - we've had a bit of a heatwave here last week and before, and D. can't sleep in the heat so it's been a bit rough(er then usual) here as well.
king26 Going by the pics on IG it was a nice worktrip! I'm glad DH & J did well together. yellowcat GL with the yardwork and home repairs. Maybe not the coolest 4th of July but it'll be so lovely to have it done right?
@starzia ugh noooo, so sorry about the HFM!!!
pennylane I hope the family reunion will be nice. |
