Hi, all. Cyn, I bet it helps to know he does realize what you mean to him and that he is sorry for how he's treated you. You, my friend, are his everything and he appreciates it.
I agree but still we seem to only get to actually open up to seldom.....it is so difficult to talk about our situation with one another. It really is heartbreaking for the two of us. My DH said he feels like he is stealing my good years--like I am in jail taking care of him. It is most definitely not what either of us had imagined our golden years together here would be like. I suppose that isn't so unusual for many people. We get older and things do happen.....sigh...but I entered into this relationship for better or for worse and in good health and illness so it just has to be what it is. No reason for anyone to feel guilty--we were not given a choice.
cyn glad you could have the meaningful talk as hard as it is to do. Tell DH yes these aren't the cards y'all had planned for but think of the many married couples that lose a spouse much younger or to war. Those surviving spouses would probably wish for their late spouses to be back even if it meant a serious illness they had to endure just to have more time. Just remember God knew all this before you 2 did and He knows the outcome how we choose to go through it is up to us. Love ya.
Good morning! Good to hear you feel better elston. Waking up feeling badly is not fun!
YL, I think the rain does not help with moods! Makes it hard to get outside to get any sunshine for sure! Yesterday I was going to mow the dogs yard, even though the mower has a bent wheel, and it started thundering and lightening before I could even start! Guess I bent the wheel somehow and now it doesn't mow evenly but it will be ok for the the dogs yard if I can get a break in this weather!
DH's back has been killing him--to much time sitting in front of the computer I think and he needs a new computer chair. He sees his Dr tomorrow so maybe he will tell us something. Not sure if it's the ALS or the chair. I know the muscles around his chest are getting weaker so that may be a part of it...sigh...
They told him a little exercise is ok but to much just hurts the dieing muscles more. He does need to walk as much as he can while he still can although it is pretty hard for him. I just feel like sleeping with this weather but can't make any money doing that and besides I never can sleep during the day as a rule. I have a couple of my outdoor cats that have colds from this weather and I just hope it doesn't develop into a respiratory problem. I did start one on antibiotics but am still just watching the other for now. Never a dull moment here.....
So I mowed even with the tire and deck lid not even--who cares really? By tomorrow you won't even be able to tell it's growing so fast! I got most of the back yard done and the dogs yard but the clouds are black and the sky is rumbling so I'm not one to push my luck! It's time to go to the PO anyhow. I did get quite a few items listed so at least I was busy.....if I don't stay busy especially without my ADD meds I'll go crazy. Just wish I had the energy--I know that makes little sense for those who do not understand ADD. We have energy but it's all mixed up and scattered and will wear you out! But I'm doing my list and so far so good. Now to find that "happy" pill.
