Long Weekend Ahead

by smitty1247 @ 2007-08-31 - 13:19:05

I don't work on Monday and Kathy is not out of the hospital yet, so another weekend of laying on a hard pull-out bed.  I have got to write down what chores need to be done for my neighbor as he said he would look over things while I was with Kathy.  It's good to have friends that are willing to help out when you need it most.

On a different note these games below have occupied my free time at work and they are driving me mad.

What a Week so far

Kathy is walking again with the help of a walker and brace .  Her stay in the hospital has allowed us the time needed to work out our issues.  It's not easy for either of us, but if you want the marriage to work you have to work at it.  It is going to be difficult and she will be in rehab for awhile then move to her parents during the week and come home to me on the weekends.  I'll post when I can.

The worst week of my Life

by smitty1247 @ 2007-08-27 - 10:40:40

Have you ever had one of those weeks when it rains it pours and everything comes crashing down. Well that is where I am at.

Monday 20/8/07: From my previous post I talked about guys and girls being friends. I still think we can, however, my wife doesn't and she went through the roof and left. So we separated that night.  I called our preacher and asked for marriage counciling so I can at least talk to my wife.

Tuesday 21/8/07: That night we meet with our preacher, talk things out, she comes home and I sleep on a different bed.  At least she is home and safe.

Wendensday 22/8/07: Same thing as Tuesday night.

Thursday 23/08/07: After a good counciling session on Wed. we talk a little bit more that mourning before she goes to work.  On her way to work she has a car accident and has a spine injury.  At the hospital, they confirm the injury that she has one broken vertibrea that needs to be fixed.  She has a few more x-rays that evening and is scheduled for surgery on Friday.

Friday 24/08/07: She has a 3-hour surgery and everything goes well.  The surgeon comes out and says everythings fine, the fracture is more severe than the X-ray showed.  She will be in the hospital for a week, off work for 2-3 months while in rehab learning to walk again.

So as I said before, when it rains it pours.  I am so grateful she is safe and alive.  Things could have been so much worse.  I have always told her I love her and only her, and actions speak louder than words.  It is going to be a long road to recovery and require a lot out of both of us to make it work.

Can guys and girls really be friends

by smitty1247 @ 2007-08-20 - 15:59:59

      Quick question. Can guys and girls really be good friends? I would like to think that they could, but if they get that close why would they want to be with someone else and not that person.

         OK, I will explain the reasoning behind the question. My major hobby besides music is working sheep/cattle dogs. I train with a female who is roughly the same age and has many of the same interest that I do. We are both married, she has a kid, I have a loving/jealous wife, she has a non-caring husband (at least when it comes to her hobbies). Anyway this relationship I have with the other lady is very friendly and we talk openly about our lives to each other. Well this obviously is freaking my wife out, whom I love and want to stay with, however none the less she is freaking out. I enjoy the company of my friend b/c it is nice to have someone else to talk to that shares your interest. I would be lying if I said she wasn't attractive and very outgoing and we can talk for hours about our interest (mainly dogs and other handlers). Getting back to the point, my wife thinks that men and women can never be "just friends". So I want to know.... can we?

Hello All

I came across this site and decided what the hell, I need someplace to vent frustrations from work, home and anywhere else that just pisses me off. So I say hello to everyone who stops by to read my rants or that drop me a line so I can read theirs.
