...and I have WAY TOO much to do this week. Q's 1st birthday party is Saturday. I have to clean the entire house, plant my outdoor pots, buy decorations and put them up, prepare the food, the list goes on and on. I also have to work all week. I am having a hard time walking and let me tell you how nice my flip flops look with a suit...

Forgive the unpainted toe nails. I really didn't have the energy for a pedicure.
I kicked the edge of my kitchen island. I was kicking a yoga ball around, entertaining the baby and my foot just caught the edge of the cabinet. I fell to the floor, the baby laughed hysterically and my DH proceeded to tell me all about how nothing can be done for a broken toe and then started demonstrating how his previously broken toe won't bend anymore. All of this while I was crying in pain. DH and the baby were both very helpful...

And my husband would jabber too, after asking what happened. If my head hurts, he has an aneurysm. After giving birth to my 3 rd and dislocating my tail bone in the process, I told him my back hurts. He went on about how he torqued his back putting our then 19 month old in her crib. Like, really? I gave him a stare from my hospital bed.
Quoting Iron_Beauty:
Wow.... if I did something like that DH's first instinct would be to make sure I was ok, not stand there and jabber away while I cried.
That was a majorly dick move.
Guess your DH is leaps and bounds above my chauvanist pig who cares only for himself. *heavy sarcasm*. I should probably leave him. The kids would definitely be better off.
Quoting Djinn83:
Oooooooch. Hire a maid to clean your house.

Love the maid idea! I talked to my mom this morning and she volunteered to help out. Also, DH works from home and said he would take care of the vaccuuming, laundry, yard and pick up. It turns out I will be covered on the housework front. I took some Advil an hour or so ago and really, it doesn't feel too bad now.
Men are funny!
