Please bear with me , I know how lucky I am to have my husband still with me -but- I didn’t think it would be this hard!
DH retired July this year at 74, we went away for a months holiday , then came home garden to sort out etc all good , then September we had another week away with family .
Now back and it’s becoming difficult , other than long walks with the dog and gardening which DH does I find I am expected to be ready to drop whatever I am doing and go for coffee . If I am due to see friends there is almost a “ poor me” look on his face so find I am not seeing so many people , then there is the going into the loft to see what we can sell, this is duly brought down pushed into the spare room and left for me “ when I have 5 minutes” to put on e bay (he doesn’t do technology “
I now find I am struggling to start things as waiting for the usual “ coffee”
Anyone got any ideas bearing in mind he is a creature of habit ? , otherwise thank you for letting me vent.
Is Mumsnet down today (13th May)
