I am trying to dig my way out of the hole I was thrown into when MWH broke two bones foot...
Did I tell you about that? He broke it on January 3. It's the first bone break for him; well, actually the first 16+ breaks. He broke two bones MULTIPLE times. He did super good job on breaking his foot. He always gives his all.
It's been 3.5 weeks since the surgery, and he's just starting to be able to be out of bed for more than 15-20 minutes at a time.
He does so much around the house. I have been spending a lot of time keeping up with the work he does in the house. I am tired. He does dishes, trash, laundry*, other cleaning, making girls' lunches (he does the second shift usually while I get ready for the day and he helps me get out of the door in the morning), picking up kids (not really doing this, our nanny has picked up the slack there) bringing in new supplies from the garage, e.g., paper towels).
Yes, I am lucky. He is awesome. I think we usually do about the same amount of work around the house. I do the first shift of getting girls ready for school, the drop off for both schools, the cooking, planning for the cooking, laundry, organizing for the week, all the scheduling for the girls, afternoon help with the girls, all the purchasing for girls (e.g., clothes, shoes, anything they need for school, friends' birthdays, etc). I am missing my partner in crime around this place!
(*I should note that the girls do a lot around the house, too. Thankfully they are also helping pick up some of the work, too. The more stressed I get, the more they help.)
I've written about MWH in the past...
