[QUOTE="Shari, post: 418955, member: 1848"] I got home to easy child 1 working on digging up the broken pipe and trenching for the new one. husband was watching, and did, actually, help some. Nothing overboard, but he helped. (fwiw - wee helped, too. He put the primer and cement on the new pipe ends and fitted them all together, as well as carrying several sections out!) However, easy child 1 said he wasn't happy that we were doing it because its going to mess up the yard!!! Another OMG. Its getting warm. The leaking pipe is beginning to smell.. You'd rather have that stench over a few ruts in an already trashy yard??? I swear. But its done. And now he's in front of his precious tv. The deal with the competition....I feel that way, too. Like its some sort of sick competition. Or that even possibly he's upset that he perceives mine to be worse. I know how awful that sounds, but just a week or so ago, man asked me how I was doing, and by the third question, husband was answering them all with regards to himself, and that's not an isolated incident. I didn't get to see my surgeon for almost 2 months, and he spent most of my appointment time talking to the surgeon about himself - and then talking me into not needing the walking cast and braces that I needed to progress...which just blows my mind. There have been a couple of folks around town tell my exMIL that my injury must not have been that bad because I' up and about awful soon, and honestly, I'm wondering if that's speculation on their part? Or info from the broom closet, or maybe even husband. [/QUOTE]
