Bloody hell!! I got really busy at my little business this morning my husband had to go to a funeral I rang him 6 times to get him out of bed I asked him to give me a hand before he went to the funeral. When he eventually got out of bed it was to it was to late to come into work so he went to the funeral. After that he came in to work I didnt need a hand any more but I had a headache I said could he go and do a few things for me. He said he would have a nap out the back first as he said he didnt sleep the night before. He said half hour should do it. Yeh right you guessed it I got through the day with absolutely no help! I just can not rely on him to help me!

Hi Jen
Sorry your hubby isn't sharing the load when you need him.
Had to laugh when you were saying about the flowers, I'm not really a getting flowers type of girl. Give me a block of chocolate & I'm happy! You bring me flowers my dear hubby & I want to know what you think you've done wrong!
When our son was born my parents were horrified that hubby hadn't given me any flowers as they had. I told my parents that all I wanted from him was an iced coffee! I know that seems strange but I'm a simple girl to please.

Hey Jods a box of chockies would make me very happy as well no I am not a flowers girl at all. I am really good at letting flowers die before their time. My poor pot plants dont have much hope at all. A friend once gave me a fern and said you cant kill them they grow anywhere poor fern had no chance at my place:)

Well here we are again a lovely day outside I have been doing my yearly cyclone clean up outside before I go and have a game of golf. I make so much noise outside his bedroom window surely he can hear me banging and crashing outside.
But its weird I am cranky that he wont get out of bed but in another way I dont want his help and I dont need his help.I know if he got out of bed before his time he would be painful so he can stay in there as far as I am concerned.

Hi Jen
Enjoy your golf game!
I swear its the weather or last nights full moon. My hubby has hit his wall today too. I told him to go & lie down in our room.
I think he may have had too much of a full-on week & now its catching up with him. The funny thing is that HE feels guilty for not being able to function for the day. I told him the best thing he can do is go & rest because today is the only day he will be able to.
Enjoy your time away from your hubby & have some fun!

Hi Jods thanks for your well wishes. Sounds like your hubby may have just needed a rest after all the excitement.
Weird isnt it how they cant cope with things like they used to?

Hi Jen
I know what you mean. I suppose the hard part for us is that things we do everyday (get up,shower,eat, leave the house etc) is hard for them.
I admit that I tend to forget that, especially if hubby seems to be having a "good" day. I have to remember that if he's done too much it takes about 2/3 days to recover.

Hi Jods thats right apparently the everyday things are hard for them to do and when hubby is having a good day which doesnt happen much anymore I tend to get all excited and probably push him to far to ask for his help with things.
I am still having trouble understanding how it can be to hard for him to want to do anything I relly hope things change in the near future as I am not going to spend the rest of my life like this!
