Things seem to be going well for the patients.  Pauline’s knee is definitely on the mend. She and her walker are getting around really well.  That makes me happy.

Cindy is also on the mend.   She is feeling much better today.  Her surgeon did an x-ray and CT scan yesterday and found that the fluid in the sac in her chest is down 40%.  If things keep going this way, she will not need another surgery.  Then she’ll be ready for physical therapy to get her back on her feet and then out the door.  Hopefully everything wll go as planned and Cindy will be home by the end of next week.

So the only thing not going to plan is my life.  I haven’t done anything about signing up for unemployment, looking into COBRA, figuring out our new budget, updating my LinkedIn profile or writing (except for this blog).  I’m too busy shopping, cooking, doing laundry, miscelaneous errands, and I’m not sure what else.  By the end of the day, I’m exhausted.  I used to go to work all day, come home and possibly shop/cook depending on how Pualine was doing and that was it. I was the Dad guy.  This week, I’ve turned into the Mommy.

I DON’T WANT TO BE THE MOMMY!!!

It’s too hard.

I want to go back to work.
