Not very good at care giving. We got in a huge fight at 3:45 am on Sunday about how he is so sick of doing things for me. I am much, much better now but still can't do everything on my own and I can't get easy, quick things done fast yet. He sighs and rolls his eyes and he does it in front of me. I told him I get it, it sucks for you and me, but if you are going to sigh and roll your eyes do it when I can't see or hear you. He also says I'm not thankful. I can't tell you how many times I have said thank you and I appreciate you, I would do the same for you.
Anyway, I'm glad to be at my mom's this week. She is so much more easy going!

So sorry his is being a dick right now. Guys don't realize we would care for them in heartbeat and just complain when they aren't around. Glad he apologized and I hope your mom can take extra special care of you this week!
I don't know anyone, including myself who would be easy breezy all the time in this situation. So yeah I'm sure I've been annoying. Not gonna lie!
I have a very good friend that broke her ankle a couple months ago that required two surgeries. She said the hardest part was just lying there doing nothing. Anyone would get tired of that and be annoyed. It takes a while to heal, but you will be on the mend soon!
I am a terrible care taker, but I never try to make h feel bad when he needs me to do things for him.
He hasn't had to be in the care taker role for me much, and I wonder how he'd be. Probably better than me, lol. He's much nicer than me.
This is me and my DH so much. LOL
I am sorry your husband was being a dick OP. I am glad he apologized and I hope he feels appropriately embarrassed. TBH though I would much rather have my mom than my husband if my ankle was broken.
That's realky shitty. I honestly don't think I could get over that for awhile. Yes being a caregiver sucks but it's not like you've been sick for years and this is a short term thing. I'm glad you have your mom to help you out though.

You guys have kids, or no? Because if you have them, he's not going to be real appreciated those first one or 21 years! I hope it gets better for you soon. DH has been really good to me after surgery. I'm good to him after something major. But when he gets all man cold on me, my sympathy runs out quick.
Ugh, that is pretty jerky. Even if it gets annoying, you don't show it to the person, you just bitch about them behind their back. Duh!
I do know from H, when you are a person used to working out/running/playing sports, and are sidelined, that person can be pretty cranky after a while, which I get.
