ok it's Sunday.... the 13th, right??
so i made it thru another 9/11 anniversary.... bad memories for me ... still bitter about it and how much security HAS NOT been fixed for this nation. anyways that's another story for another day....
i thought i got thru it ok but then yesterday i had the WORST IBS flare since i can remember! the stomach pain was horrible. bloating, cramps and all. felt like an alien was tryin to chew it's way out!
and guess what Matthew decides to do?? clean the bedroom top to bottom! and of course wanted me to help him!!! he got mad every time i had to leave the room and go to the bath room. i snapped at him and asked "what the hell do you expect?! you want me to hold it?? how about i just shit ON YOU! you wouldn't like that, would you?!" what a dip shit.... he got the point though after i said that and was suddenly kissin my ass.
i told him he always picks the worst day to clean things (since he prefers i help him). you know what he said to me? "you feel like crap everyday! so there isn't a good day to clean!" whatever. you could at least ASK me if i'm ok enough to help! geee..... he said he loves me and a clean room should make me happy. well it's a little hard to be happy when it hurts this bad! and especially if you EXPECT me to HELP you!! so he cleaned the rest of it up while i sat on my ass and watched tv.
i love him and all, but.... dude, when i feel like an alien is chewing it's way to birth, cleaning is the LAST thing on my mind! wouldn't you agree?
ok thanks for letting me rant here! i feel a bit better today, but we'll see how this goes. take care y'all......

There's no better place.
I too am blessed with a hubby who is willing to clean, but his timing is often very inconvenient. I help if I can, but generally just get out of the way, and try to remember to tell him afterwards how nice it looks and how much I appreciate him.
Notice I did say "try"! There are times when I am distinctly unappreciative!
Good thing he's also a forgiving sort, even if he does get his feelings hurt. I usually find it necessary to apologize at some point for being such an ungrateful bitch.
Dysfunctional , maybe, but has worked for 20+ years. He's still here, and still does floors, usually what dusting gets done, and cooks at least half our meals. Bathrooms and cat litterpans are my department, and he is for more gracious - never bitches if they aren't minty fresh every day.
Each couple has to work out their own details. For me, it sure beats being single. God alone knows what kind of mess I'd live in without him.
It's no wonder your IBS played you up like that really and he should've realised that shouldn't he?? Besides, we can't live by everybody else's rules, only our own. My Hubby understands that, I don't stop him cleaning, if I can help then I will, if I can't, then I won't - simple as that. I live by this;
I do what I can, when I can, how I can - everything else is done by Hubby.
Feel better asap, hugs,Owlxxx
sorry i haven't been on much lately.... my mom (who lives with us) has been on the comp a lot because i set her up on a matching date site. we want her to start dating again and one day hopefully remarry. so anyways, she's been on it looking thru guys profiles in the near area. it's so cute to see someone 61 try to go out and date again. hopefully by this weekend some handsome hunk will pick her up in his car and take her to dinner! lol! go mom! you can do it!
well, i'm feeling a tad bit better... it's been several days now of unpredictable bowels.... and of course the cramps. but i think and hope tomorrow will be a good day! i would like to go to the BEACH!! yeahhh!
anyways... i went the clinic today and had the receptionist leave a note for my doc to please send me to a GI specialist!!! i CAN NOT LIVE LIKE THIS!! i would like to get some of my life back where i'm not stuck on the toilet for an hr and i can't even leave the house on days like these, you know what i mean?
well, thanks everyone for being here for me. you all rock!
Hope your mom has good luck with the dating.
What are you going to do if she ask if her new boyfriend can move in?
Hugs
huggs to you...
yeah, minty, ibs SUCKS!
the other day he tried to tell me that i don't know what it's like to have arm pain. yeah, ok! and that's why i had to get 2 cervical spinal injections, right? not to mention the crazy muscle pain i get daily! yea, i have NO idea what THAT feels like! ha! men are such whiners!! that's why women were designed to bare kids and not men! LOL! they'd probably put a gun to the heads before labor even started.... wimps.
