Mixed up ramblings of a bipolar mom to 4…

The men in my life..

Sunday May 14, 2006

are trying to make me go insane.. I believe this is their ultimate goal lately..
Yesterday.. Dh comes home with his hand wrapped with this stuff.. it looked like the pink side of insulation (assuming you have ANY idea what im talking about) . Anyhow.. very odd looking.. He says,”Come help me” .
I get up.. Watch him unwrap it.. And find he had cut himself.. His knife went in at an angle between his thumb and first fnger. it went in above the bones and below the skin.. The angle it went in at covered 3 bones in his hand..
With in 20 minutes his hand had swelled and started bruising.. He refused to go to the ER and get it checked.. I figure it needed 2 MAYBE 3 stitches.. No more than that..But the cut went in so much that there was no way I could clean it and I started worrying about infection because of what they were doing when he got cut.. He was helping his friends butcher a hog.. But my husband refused letting me take him in.. And he boiled it out with peroxide, put antibiotic ointment on it nad wrapped it up and went on about his way..

Now last night He decided to go fishing wiht my dad.. With his hand badly cut.. He was to meet my dad at my parents house and I called my mom when I knew he would be there.. Explained his cut and how he only had a band aid on it and she cornered him and cleaned his cut and bandaged it up with some water proof stuff and off they went..

Now onto the other man in my life.. Bug being the 5 year old lil boy he is.. Was non stop tonight.. Running from one end of the house to the other. I was ready to pull my hair out or his.. Anyhow.. I had just gotten finished telling him,”SON! STOP RUNNING YOU ARE GOING TO HURT YOURSELF!” Less than 10 seconds AFTER me saying that.. He comes screaming.. Wailing at the TOP of his lungs.. My mood is already dim.. But the wailing had set my head on fire due to sinus headache I already had.. I come running and he has a splinter in his foot that was almost an inch long!!!!!!!!!!!

He wouldnt let me touch him so i had to carry him into my bedroom and wake DH up to look at his foot! It took us 45 minutes to get it out of hi sfoot because he wouldnt be still.. Once we got it out he was like ,”LOOK AT THAT”

he swears he wont r un anymore.. Yeah i believe him too! NOT!

My guys are accident prone..And are wearing me completely out!

It’s so strange how men are oblivious to injuries and cuts and how to take care of themselves so they don’t get worse.
