Caregiving Are Us

By on February 13th, 2009 in Just Saying ...

Spent most of this week staying at home helping Pam with her two broken “wings”. She ended up with a half-cast on her right hand (for the broken bone in her hand) and a sling for her broken left elbow. That pretty much limits her ability to move easily, so it was my job (as the dutiful and caring husband) to help her out as needed.

The involves food and drink and drugs and laundry and dishes, although there hasn’t been extensive cooking involved (we’re surrounded by fast food choices). And I was able to work from home during the week (when not wandering to the doctor’s). Actually was quite productive from home, if I say so myself.

In the middle of all that, Stacy got back from her visit to her sister in Utah on Tuesday night. She picked up a flu bug on the airplane (even though she had a flu shot) along with a cold, so made trips to her house on Wed and Thurs to help out with doctor visits and food/drug runs. She got some really good news today, but I will let her blog about it (when she gets better).

Pam was feeling good enough this morning to let me go to work today. Got quite a bit done in preparation for a three-day weekend. No big plans for this weekend that I know of. We’ll see how much trouble I can stay out of.
