Yes to a dh being underfoot and obsessing...
Yes to a dh who doesn't want to let go of ANYTHING...
Yes, yes, yes...I don't set a timer when he's here because he's forever pulling me away to see something. (((Twins)))
One reason it is hard for me to follow any sort of BWP or daily "schedule" to my routines, etc, is because (1) dh creates distractions or (2) I have to manage my computer time vs his computer time and during spring sports season, it seems he is on this computer ALL the time!!!
If I do all my "chores" and then try to check in with y'all, it never fails -- he will have a ballgame tuned in and playing it so loud he can hear it all over the house.
And today, dh's foot is causing excruciating pain. I mean, he is almost in tears every time he has to take a step -- said the it hurt for the covers to touch it in bed. This is nothing new -- which makes it all the more depressing and frustrating. His former doctor told him this type of arthritis tends to move about, first one part of the body, then another. That is certainly dh's experience. He is taking tramadol and Aleve -- which causes issues with his blood thinner, but at this point, he is beyond caring if he bleeds to death. He just wants some pain relief.
(((Dee))) I know it must be so worrisome, having this possible surgery hanging over your head. Good to hear how well Ken is doing!
Yes to
, LadyM! OH -- and sending good wishes to dd on the testing! (IKWYM about being a small town girl uncomfortable in the big city, too, LOL!) DGS' class has finished the testing here also. I thought they still filled in scantron sheets -- he said noooo, they did away with that some time ago. All on computer now. He only had math and reading but he said it seemed easy enough.no drama family gatherings
Re: family gatherings... our circle is widening... ddil's brother arrived today and will be staying with them for a while. Her parents home should be arriving by June.
Tomorrow for dgs' recital, my dmom wants to go, so we will pick up the dgrands at noon, and then get my dmom on our way to Big City where the recital is to be held. (The teacher lives over there, about an hour away, and she drives here for church and two lessons on Sundays.) So -- y'all know, anytime I add anyone to my little bunch, even dmom, I get a little nervous -- worried that everyone will be on time and dh won't freak out about running late, etc... etc... But dh is very happy to take dmom with us, but he did say we would move up our departure time by approx 30 minutes (and dmom's house is no more than a mile out of the route we have to take anyway.
) DDIL says she will not go to the recital if I will promise to record it -- she is working tonight and tomorrow night (and Sunday night) -- so this will be the first of MANY weekend activities that she will be absent, I suspect. She thinks her parents will go to the recital, but she says if her parents do no go to the recital, we can bring dgd back home to them tomorrow night, or to her house to stay with her dbro. (DS is out of town playing music tomorrow, but will be home around midnight.)
So... all that to say... more complications, more people to consider, but it seems like it all may be working out okay.
Goodness! I hope you do NOT have any more hail damage, LadyM! Y'all have certainly had your share!
LOL at Cathy's dishes showing off!
WTG, Harmony, on the declutter!!!
Waving to everyone!!!
I know several of these type rough-looking fellas with huge hearts and I would definitely want them on my side in all circumstances. I could care less about them being covered with tattoos, long hair and full beards. I have learned not to judge a book by the cover (so to speak). 
. That said, LadyM, we are all wise to be thoughtful and cautious about our surroundings. 
) and set them there so she could look uncomplicated. Sigh. I was just going to bring it all back, but she instead put it on the floor there to wait, and promised we'd go through it together tomorrow and make progress on toss-or-save decisions, rather than missing the opportunity to "have" to address it, lol.
