Yesterday started out bad and only got continually worse. My Mr. Wonderful is never sick but when he is there is absolutely no one in the world that is sicker.

Yesterday any movement at all would make him nauseated and retching. Mr. Wonderful does not throw up well and this Daisy is highly suggestible....so while he was retching I was actually throwing up just at the thought of him throwing up. (yes, I am a nurse but noise and smells get me every time and it's only gotten worse as I age!)

My friend mompoet actually said it best:

It's possible that Mr. Wonderful getting sick is an indicator that you both finally have time for it. You've had such an eventful and demanding 6 months, culminating in the big container job, his interview and your days away. Does this mean that life is finally settling down, and you now have the luxury to get sick if you need too?

Wow, I never thought of it that way before.....thanks for the "Aha" moment. Our bodies are so finely attuned that when we push them too hard and for too long they shut down. Mr. Wonderful is getting the much needed rest he needs whether he wants to or not.

He is much better today. He slept all night and is still a little dizzy when moving around. He is able to keep food down (so maybe I will be able to also!)

I have therapy this afternoon and I'm sure I'll be fussed at.....it's not like I didn't walk the way to Savannah and back ! (Well, I did to my weigh of thinking!)

Thought for the day: Boy am I enthusiastic!
