Question, do you kind of end up 'hitting bottom' before you start back up when it comes to 'getting over' all the crap?
I ended up taking today off from work. I haven't been feeling well all week and I'm just plain tired. Although I'm in the house by myself, the air kicked on and it felt cold to me and in the back of my mind I instantly think the baby might be cold back in his crib. Well, he's not even here -- he's at daycare. I think that's one of the things the guys simply can't get about the 'mommy syndrome' -- once we are moms, it's ingrained. We can't simply turn it on & off.
Anyway, couldn't get a hold of H this a.m. He finally called and knew I was home not feeling well. I simply told him I hadn't told him I hadn't been feeling well most of the week b/c "I didn't want to complain; he can't do anything about it over there & he has enough to worry about" (in a nice way, not accusing). I think maybe it'll make him think a little -- he said no he couldn't do anything about it, but I can still tell him how I'm feeling/doing. Maybe he'll realize he could be doing a little more encouraging of me and what I'm doing over here from his end.
