nothing any woman hasn't done but this was my first experience

child so the leg was compromised to begin with ... well we got
through it ....BUT I TOO NEED A VA-CA !!!!!
@Big Joanie My husband had polio too as a child, but seems to have no ill effects from it. He had to be in an iron lung. I'm so sorry, sounds like this is 100x worse than my situation.
Not to worry .. we're all in this boat together ....just need a place to rant every
now and then ....

The secret to a happy marriage is separate bathrooms.

At least he is alive. It will be so lonesome when he isn't as mine has been gone over 3years.

I’m sorry for you loss. However, as much as we miss our loved ones, it doesn’t mean we ever got annoyed with them. We are supposed to ignore honest feelings because someone might die . Again, I’m sorry for your loss, but this poster is entitled to her feelings without being shamed. 🌺

Mine is pretty much like this all the time. He can snooze after dinner in his recliner, wake up five minutes before the end of what I was watching, and expect me to find something he is interested in. He worked out of town our entire 35 year marriage, so this retirement deal is hard getting used to. When we only had weeends together, we were much nicer to each other.

@halfpint1 is a very nice poster and I doubt that it was her intention to shame the OP. She was merely making a statement and expressing her opinion.
