[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I might be really pissed if my husband called me home from a short girls trip because he was sick. Call grandma, call a babysitter, give the au pair a bunch of money. Figure it out. I'm Not saying it doesn't suck. Been there when dh was out of town for work. But still. [/quote] You haven't lived until you have sick kids, are sick yourself, a winter storm hits creating a multi-day blackout and you can't get the truck out of the garage because the broken door spring was never repaired ("it's not broken"), and the door hangs lower than the roof of your truck. And when you finally reach your husband, his solution is to 'wedge a damn broomstick in the garage door to hold it open and see if that works". My folks were 3000 miles away. His nearby folks didn't care enough to help. No cabs were running due to the large snowfall days before. If you won't go home to help your husband with your kids when he's sick, the problem is you.[/quote]
