Anyone Seen My BGPs?
I ended up in the ER Monday night because my "stomach bug" morphed into near-paralyzing joint pain. They gave me Percoset and sent me home and by yesterday afternoon I was fine.
Well DH's IPs decided that they needed to DNIF him for a week to "help [me] at home". I could have used his help on Monday, but since then I've really been fine. But now he gets left behind anyway and I feel like I'm not the spouse that needs her husband DNIFed because she can't handle her stuff.
On top of that, I really don't enjoy having him home during the week. I love him and all, but he is kind of just in the way. He doesn't know our routine because he's hardly ever home before dinner. He asks a million questions about everything so it takes twice as long to get anything done because I have to stop and answer questions.
I needed to go grocery shopping this morning and I said we had to leave at 10:30 so we could be back by 11:30 and get everything put away before DS needed to eat lunch at 12:00 so he could nap at 12:30. At 10:20, DH says "Oh I'll be right there, just give me a sec." and gets in the car 30 minutes later. So we were late to the store, late home, then DS was too tired to eat but still too wound up to sleep. So he cried for 30 minutes while DH tried to put him down for a nap and then he gave up. Now I have a toddler who got up at 5:30am (because DH changed the setting on the thermostat so DS got cold) and won't get a nap today.
He really does mean well, but I don't need/want him here all week.
Re: Anyone Seen My BGPs?
Agreed.
Leave DH at home with the little guy tomorrow (or send them out of the house for a while) and do something for yourself.
Exactly. Run away for a few hours and forget about what's going on with them. They'll survive just fine.
