Parenting Chat Thread #3 (Ohio, husband)

[Hopes]

I woke up this morning and discovered it's my anniversary.

Hubby is outside detailing my car.

What am I going to do for him?

Help me come up with some ideas! He's not a going to the movies type of guy.

It's our 18th year! Time sure flies. Seems like just yesterday I met him.



(btw, I never know when my anniversary is. I picked the first day of Spring as a reminder but later learned that Spring moves around on the calendar.)

Ha! That's funny. By the same token I never know when it's Easter.

I have an idea what you could do for him -

Thong, thong thong thong - Thooooong!

(Sorry Hopes, I'm never going to let you live that one down).

I'm late to the sleeping conversation, but I love sleeping in bed with my husband. Truthfully, if we aren't I feel so weird, and it's harder for me to get to sleep.

Happy Anniversary Hopes!

I was wondering last night... How's DH been since the surgery?

But he sees that everyday....maybe I should buy a pair of real honest to goodness panties.

Thanks, Dew!

He's doing great! He returned to work last week on light duty. His physical therapist anticipates that he will be like new in three more months.

I hated the doctor. He was such a jerk, had no personality. I wanted to find another doctor prior to the surgery.

I'm so glad my husband disregarded my reservations with his casual "everything will be fine with whatever doctor" attitude.

This doctor worked miracles with my husband's shoulder.

I guess it's true that skill is more important than personality when it comes to surgeons.

My car looks great! We're going to take a walk in the woods to the falls. It will be fun. Today is a beautiful day.

I could write a book about surgeons. And doctors in general. Some I've hated. Some I wanted to bake cookies for. Best surgeon I had was an old Jewish man who I'd have walked on fire for. Before one surgery, when I weighed about 97 pounds he said, "Don't you ever eat any pie?" Thirty years down the road we still joke about having a piece of pie under "doctor's orders".

Glad your DH is doing well!!

An extra five minutes of sex? Or if he's one of "those," five fewer minutes.
Your mileage may vary.

Is there a way to ease bad dreams? Like relaxation methods you can do before bed to get better more relaxing sleep?

The other night I had a dream I had a panic attack in Walmart and actually passed out briefly in the dream. I felt everything the fear, the panic, the anxiety all while sleeping and I woke up hurting my shoulders so tense and just searing pain.
And again last night or right before I woke up today, another bad dream that I could feel.

And I'm in such raging biatch mode today and I don't want to do anything at work.
