Some Days I Feel Like Screaming
03/08/2009
Every have one of those days that no matter what you do, you just can’t please some one? For the most part Hubby has been a good patient. Even when he’s hurting he has been easy to deal with. BUT, once he goes to sleep, if I have to wake him up for something, he is a crabby old bear. Tonight I woke him up when it was time to take his 12 hour pain pill and he got a little bit peeved at me because he had taken it an hour early so that he could go to sleep and I woke him up needlessly. Except that he failed to tell me that he had taken it early so I didn’t know that I was waking him up needlessly and yes, he hurt my feelings because (even though I try to tell my self it’s because he’s sick) he was so gruff about it.
Then there are days that just as I sit down, he’ll say before you sit down could you (insert all kinds of thing that I can fetch for him here). Some days I think he waits until he sees that I’ve sat down before he asks for something. Nah, I don’t really think that, but I do wonder.
Then there is also the fact that he now takes up 3/4th of the bed when he sleeps. If we had a king size bed that wouldn’t be a problem, but we have a queen size bed and now I have to sleep on my side, on the very edge of the bed. It’s not very comfortable, but I’m only kind of complaining because I know that Hubby isn’t very comfortable either because it’s almost impossible for him to get really comfortable sleeping on his back like he is now. It really hurts him when he lays on either side and that is how he used to sleep.
So I’m thinking that maybe I just need to blow up the twin size air mattress and start sleeping on it in the livingroom. I’m not sure if I would sleep better but I would definitely have more room than what I have now. Maybe if I was able to have more room to sleep than what I have now, maybe I would sleep better. Maybe if I slept better Hubby’s being cranky wouldn’t bother me as much….hmmmm.
