One of those happy/sad things

I 've been having issues taking showers for months. My DH is my lovely caregiver on days that am just in to much pain to deal with the world.  It has been so long since I have been able to wash my hair AND shave my legs at the same time I can't remember the last time I have done both. My DH will be having knee replacement surgery in a few days so we brought out the shower chair that we have stored (long story as to why we have one...so I won't get into that). I needed to wash my hair but I normally get so exhausted I wait until I HAVE to wash it. So DH suggested the shower chair. Sigh...I didn't really want to as I didn't really want to have to be that 'broken'. After we figured out how to get all the girly things that all gals need to use for our shower it was the best shower that I have had in I don't know how long.
So....DH is off to Home Depot to pick up a different shower head to one of those removable ones and a carrier to sit beside me in the shower. I will now be able to shave AND wash my hair everyday if I want. I am not sure what I would do without my DH...he has been my champion and sure has taken our vows to heart...I had to have a good cry before I got in the shower. It just makes me sad to see myself go downhill....but at least I have my hubby's hand as I walk down that hill.
