Bad day 😩

Hey everyone. I just need to vent about my crappy day. So it started last night. My husband woke up not feeling well and being rather loud about it. Then our 5 year old woke up..3 times. Then the 20 month old woke up multiple times as well. So to start off I had very broken sleep. My husband around 4 said he was going to throw up..I didn’t hear him but he may have been quiet. But I didn’t realize both kids were in our bed (I knew the 20 month old was but not the 5 year old.) So I was getting kicked and shoved around for 2 hours and I let the 5 year old sleep in a little bit so she could get to school better. So after I dropped her off I had the toddler at home with my husband asleep in the living room. He wasn’t feeling well..initially I was like yup I get it let me help get you feeling better. I tried offering some medicine and tried to give him some plain toast since he said he took medicine on an empty stomach and it messed his stomach up. But he refused it which is fine..and he slept all day in the living room which I asked if I could help him to our room so I can let the toddler be as loud and crazy as he wanted to be..to which husband said no. Ok I get it you probably don’t want to move. But he insisted on quiet and that’s not something I could do at the time. So I moved him at least to a different spot to where the toddler would be less likely to cause trouble. Which he still found a way to do it..so trying to chase around a toddler and take care of a sick husband..who was supposed to go with me to help with the kids vaccinations today. So I had to do that alone which I’ve done before but it’s so hard. All the while I’ve been fighting a migraine off all day. When we got home he said he was feeling better and ready to eat so he has an applesauce pouch. Then says his throat hurts so I tell him I can give you medicine for that and some water/tea..to which he says no. Now listen I’m not saying I’m mad he’s sick..It just. Every time he gets sick it throws everything off. And I end up doing my job and his and he gets to just sleep all day. Which is what he’s done. I had the same bad night as him and still have to parent the kids, make sure one gets to school and gets them to the dr. I have to get everyone fed, clean the house and do bath and bed. And it’s just..I know it’s not a thing we control but it’s so hard. He gets migraines often and when he has those he does the same thing. So it’s hard because I had things I needed to get done today because we’re supposed to leave town Saturday, I have PTA things I need to get done too. And it’s just so hard because I had to put all that on the back to take care of him and now I’m even more behind on things. I also am dealing with a 5 year old who is full of attitude..I again don’t feel great. And I just needed today to go way better than it did. He just came out of the room and said his stomach is better but his head now hurts so I’m going to try and get him to take some medicine for his head and also give him some crackers or plain toast to coat his stomach. Anyway. If you got this far thanks. I know it may seem like I’m complaining and whining about my day..maybe I am. But I’m just exhausted mentally and physically..I have a class I might have to drop out of because no one can or will help me with childcare and I took time away from my things that need to be done to help my husband get things done so I have a chance to pay for my class..I’m just having a hard time and he won’t even listen to my concerns and then this. So yeah. Not a great start to the week. Anyway. If you made it THIS far thanks haha. Pic for attn

🫂🫂 I hope tomorrow is a better day! I also get very frustrated when my partner is sick because he gets to stop everything and rest but when I am sick I am still expected to do so and so. I get you giirrlll! 🫂

Yeah that sucks 🥲 why do the men always need a whole day off from doing any when when they are sick. But when we are sick, we still need to carry on 😔 Hope you get a better time of it soon enough 🫂

@Audrey thank you ♥️ I am just so frustrated because I have to play catchup on everything and I just badly want to go to bed..but I’m sure as soon as I lay down he’ll need something or a kid will 😩

@Jemima thank you. Yeah it’s a little annoying like. The last time I was super sick I couldn’t sleep I. My own bed. (We were trying to leave town so I kind of volunteered lol but still) I had to do all the laundry and make sure everyone was packed..and pack the car 🙄 and this time like I really needed to get laundry caught up but I couldn’t so that’s just..another level of stress

That sounds like a really tough day!! I’m sorry that happened. Definitely hope your week got better ❤️

@Kelley thank you ♥️ yesterday went better. He got out of bed and was able to eat and take some medicine! By dinner he was much better and did the kids bedtime alone so I could rest! He’s a great guy honestly but when he gets sick 😮‍💨
