roles reversed

airwave

The OH has a fractured pelvis, I am running round in circles doing all the household jobs.

Curious, she has come to appreciate what I feel like with the pain and I am wondering how she manages to do all the chores! I can feel my self getting more tired by the day. The garden can wait!!! ......but what about the washing and ironing ...oohhhhhhhh!

8 o'clock? Can I go to bed now or shall I just keep my eyes closed?

Life throws up its little problems, eh!

8) Its a grin, honest!

I have a pink pinny you can borrow Airwave to keep your clothes clean whilst you're doing the chores

Hope she mends quickly, that must have been soooo painful - don't wear yourself out you need to rest too.

Just do the essentials. You might have to wear crumpled clothes for a while.What about the shopping as you have to eat. Any chance of some help from anyone?

Hi

Oh dear! I thought the same after my operation and my OH was doing all the housework; cooking etc and complaining of a bad back.
He really does appreciate what I used to do now that he's had a taste of what it means to keep the house going. Don't wear yourself out and spread the jobs out.

I hope your OH is feeling ok.

Keep looking after each other.

i'm doing the same airwave, looking after my wife who's on crutches with arthur which seems to be spreading. Its dusting,hoovering,washing,cooking, shopping etc etc whilst not feeling great ourselves but who's going to do it if we don't l :roll:

Perhaps we should have a club or similar for moral support

Hi Airwave

You still grinning :?:

Is she ok? How on earth did she do that??

You will survive and if a few things dont get done so what?

You are definitely helping her I'm sure.

Love
