Okay, my PALS is still pretty darned mobile (he is driving himself to pool exercises 3X a week), He is doing pretty well emotionally at the moment after a bad patch last week.
Still, I am exhausted, like sometimes I wonder if I need to worry about falling down, not just him. Work is hectic full time plus, and it's true my household chore list grows a little all the time as he can do a little less progressively.
Here some of you are literally doing heavy lifting, and I feel like another bag of trash or load of laundry might kill me some days.
My labs are all good and normal, so this tired is me, nothing health wise.
My emotions are less important to me as time goes on. I don't need a shoulder to cry on as much as I want someone else to make dinner and take the trash out and run a load of laundry. At the same time, tears can be just just back behind my eyes unexpectedly.
They are not tears there is any help for anyway so I try to not get involved in that. It is what it is.
My mom is 81 and needs things too so that is more to do.
It's to bad we can't just have a day off from even knowing about ALS. Maybe spring will help. I am looking very forward to our May trip.
I came home today after getting some things for my mom planning a nap, but I need to go to the liquor store because my husband is all out of his favorite stuff and here we are on the weekend.
I honestly want him not to do without one single thing if I can help it. Maybe when I get back, a Sangria and a movie will help more than a nap even.
