Feel like poop/ sister coming,/how dum can I get???

[Guest guest]

I'm feeling like the devil because I was dumb yesterday and I've got my

sister & husband coming today to stay through the weekend...I could

kick myself for doing all that housework yesterday!!! I don't keep a

dirty house so why I felt like I had to get on my hands & knees to

scrub the tub is beyond me...I deserve this flare up....You'd think

after all these years of having Fibro 15yrs at least I'd have some

common sense by now. I also mopped the floors.. How dumb???? I asked

my husband to vacuum today and he said sure. I would have mopped

yesterday if you had asked. O.K. don't get me wrong here,but if he

saw me mopping why didn't he offer to do it????Please don't think I'm

not grateful for all he does, he's very supportive and understanding.

I just don't get it....He saw me mopping..he knew I would regret it, so

he just let me do it anyway???? am I being bit-hy? Or am I just

feeling sorry for myself?? Please tell me, I've had 1 hydrocodiene

today so maybe I'm not thinking straight?? If I just let this fester

it will only get worse. This is good to be able to voice my feelings

on here... Thank You!!! Hinky

Hinky,

No one deserves a flare-up for any reason. It's not fair we can't do simple

things without getting slammed! I clean and over do all the time.........

As far as your husband, sometimes I think they are overwhelmed by our illness.

My husband is supportive, but occasionally he'll do something like your husband

did last night. Once, I was in bed with a HUGE flare-up. The house and yard

needed work. He was doing the yard work and guilted me into cleaning the house.

I cried in pain the rest of the day.

1. While it is wonderful to share our experiences with everyone on the list as

to what treatments do and don't work for us, pls always check with your dr. Some

treatments are dangerous when given along with other meds as well as to certain

health conditions or just dangerous in general.

2. If you are in a difficult situation (doesn't matter what it is) pls don't be

afraid to ask for help. It is the first step to trying to make that situation

better.

3. To unsubscribe the e-mail is:

Fibromyalgia_Support_Group-unsubscribe

4. Also, it is not uncommon for more than one member to be feeling bad at the

same time when it comes to flares and b/c of that potentially take something

another member says the wrong way. And that includes the things that one member

may find funny (even if it's laughing at fibro itself) even though we who deal

with illness whether one such as fibro or multiple illnesses try to keep a sense

of humor.

5. Pls let's be gentle with each other, and if you are having a bad day pls let

us know so that we can do our best to offer our support.

Have a nice day everyone.

Hinky, I think we've ALL done that. In fact, I think I'm going to

regret today tomorrow. See, my son had an orthopedic appt, which

turned out okay - he has a flexible flat foot which means we need to

put him in shoes that have better arch support. Anyhow, before that,

we ran to the grocery store (I did use the scooter...lol) and got all

the non-perishibles that were buy 1/get 1 free that we needed. Then I

took the kids to lunch and THEN we went to the ortho appt. After the

ortho appt, I was like, we're not far from Petco so let's go, because

my dogs are nearly out of the wet food they eat. We walked around

Petco (no scooter this time) and I got a case of the food they like.

Of course, I had to lift said case into my vehicle. We then went to

Hallmark so I could get my granddaughter's birthday card (she's 2 on

Friday). Then we came home and unloaded all the groceries except the

case of dog food and put it all away. It was then that the back

spasms started........and I could have smacked myself in the head.

Because I know that tomorrow I'll be sore, likely in a flare, and

tired to boot. So I feel for you......and hope that you can manage to

enjoy your visit with your sister anyhow! My vote is to drug up now

and try to stop the flare from getting worse.....

Oh, Hinky...bless your heart...he was just being a man!! Honestly I think my

hubby would do anything IF I asked him. He will never do anything on his own. He

wouldn't have said anything either if I was mopping. They are just clueless

sometimes and you really want to haul off and smack them don't you???? You sound

just like me. You probably wouldn't have been happy if you didn't clean!!! Enjoy

your company, and don't wear yourself out...let them help.

Take care of yourself...

Hugs,

I really think that the guys can be totally obvious of what is going

on around them. I peridically will decide while standing at the sink

in the bathroom, gee! this is a mess, I can clean it in no time ---

but then, like today, I realized that most of the crude was from DH's

razor! How he can stand there, shave every morning and not clean the

thing when he is done, I don't know! And to ask him to clean the tub

after his shower probably wouldn't work either!!! I will never

forget the time, not long after we were married, when I asked him to

go to the apt. complex's laundry room and help with the laundry! So,

off we go! what does he do??? you got, it --- he sat there the entire

time I folded his clothes, the towels, etc. totally unaware that I

would have liked some help.

I will say that these days, he does do more but I am not so certain

he really sees what we, as women see, that the guys don't. And I am

not saying any of you gentlemen on this site do this, but it has been

my experience with two husbands, that they can ignore what we, as

women see needs to be done. Such as the fact that I grab a swiffer

cloth, put it on the swiffer and starting at the top of the stairs, I

dust them at least once a week! Can someone tell me if an all

electric house will have less dust? and also one that is 5 years old

and not 58 years old????

And I am also curious why the hardwood floors have suddenly developed

these ugly black marks all over the living room and dining room??

They have suddenly started showing up more and more the closer we get

to the day when we need to put this house on the market.

Well, I am hoping that the people who said they would pick something

up tomorrow get here and take it. And I listed one more item on

freecycle, so I am doing my part to get rid of as much as possible,

despite, very little sleep last night --- which reminds me, I need to

go take my night time meds and a sleeping pill so I can be up and

about when the carpenters wake me up tomorrow morning!

Ok, enough b@t#hing about the guy in my life.

While we're on the path of what my spouse does to irk me and being a

Mr Mom to boot,...My wife:

Comes home and leaves her shoes, pants and/or bra on the floor. This

occurs anywhere in the house, and no matter how many times I tell her

that I am tripping over her clothing it never changes.

Same thing goes for drinking cups, plates of food, and eating

utensils. Sit down on the floor to eat, and there they stay - for me

to pick up.

And you'd think that after having bouts of irritable bowl syndrome

that the one thing I'd like is a few squares of TP to finish the job,

but no,...all I get is an empty spool and a clumsy walk to the cabinet

to fetch a fresh roll.

Then there's my favorite group called, " Were'd you put it " ?

I have to call her at work to find out where she left the baby's

diapers, wipes, medicine, shoes, ect.

The repeats of the same old, same old is what gets irritating.

Pick it up, put it where it belongs, stop using areas of the house as

a catch all, put a fresh spool of TP on when it's obvious that it's

getting low.

Bottom line: You can expect me to get hostile when this simple to fix

stuff continues.
