I spent VD taking care of my sick W and keeping my DD away from her. W would call me on my cell, asking for juice, tea, etc., and I would bring it up to her. Poor DD wanted to see her, but W needed rest. So today, Monday, I am off work, have a list of honeydew jobs, and my W, even though she's sick, has to go into work. I tell her that I am taking DD to babysitter, and she's all "why would you do that when you can spend the day with her?" Okay folks. I just spent 2 full days with no relief taking care of DD (we had fun, but, come on, the house was a disaster.) W said, "you can do the jobs during her nap." I said NO, firmly, took DD to sitter, and it took me four hours to do the jobs. Now, I am going to take my President's Day nap, in honor of Reagan.
