A New Baby in the House
I have a new baby to care for in my home!
My husband fractured his elbow a couple of days ago, and he can't use his left arm Poor guy.
It was a very heroic injury too, he was on a bike ride with our 7 year old son, and he heard our son fall, so he whipped around to make sure he was ok a little too fast and couldn't get his shoes out of the clips in time and fell full force on the palm of his hand breaking his elbow.
So I've been doing all of the manual labor around the house lately. I almost suggested he get a kilt when he was having trouble with buttoning his pants, but I realized that it wouldn't have solved anything in this instance 
It has been a very weird experience from the start because I'm not used to being the nurse in the house (for him anyway). Seeing him lying in the hospital bed in pain was very hard for me--I'm used to being the one lying in the hospital bed having my head stroked when I was giving birth. I think I'd much rather it be me--except for the recovery time!
I don't know what I would do if I could only use one hand. Catch up on my reading I guess?
