How does it work?
If you remember, my husband had dental work done last Thursday. That means that last Thursday at this time was the beginning of a weekend long of taking care of my husband. He really doesn’t handle pain well.
I don’t know that any of us handle pain well, but for him, that wee bit of dental work 3 fillings and 2 pulled teeth was way over his threshold of tolerance. For me, that’s a let-me-sleep-it-off one day thing. But, that’s him and not me.
He was forced to repay the care taking yesterday as I got out of bed on Tuesday with a horrendous sinus infection. I wouldn’t go to the doctor though because I had a regular appointment on Wednesday..I would just tough it out.
What that eventually meant was a crawled to the doctor yesterday, got a shot and came home to hide beneath the covers in my dark cool bedroom. My mom took care of the boys until Wayne arrived home and then he had them all to himself for dinner and bath. Luckily we don’t have homework for the kid on Wednesday nights.
Anyway, he did a wonderful job of handling the house, as usual. I do find my tolerance level is not too great today and one side of my face is still puffy but, hey, I have good kids, a great husband and…look, I have all of you guys too!
