You Have A Cold

1ST YEAR: The husband says, "Oh, sweetie pie, I'm really worried about those nasty sniffles you have! There's no telling what that could turn into with all the strep that's been going around. I'm going to take you right down to the hospital and have you admitted for a couple days of rest. I know the food is lousy there, so I'm going to bring you some takeout from Tosini's. I've already arranged it with the head nurse." 2ND YEAR: "Listen, honey, I don't like the sound of that cough. I called the doc and he's going to stop by here and take a look at you. Why don't you just go on to bed and get the rest you need?" 3RD YEAR: "Maybe you better go lie down, darling. When you feel lousy you need the rest. I'll bring you something--do we have any canned soup around here?" 4TH YEAR: "No sense wearing yourself out when you're under the weather. When you finish those dishes and the kids' baths and get them to bed, you ought to go to bed yourself!" 5TH YEAR: "Why don't you take a couple aspirin?" 6TH YEAR: "You oughta go gargle or something, instead of sitting around barking like a dog!" 7TH YEAR: "For Pete's sake, stop sneezing. Are you trying to give me pneumonia? You'd better pick up some tissues while you're at the store." (forwardgarden.com)

That sounds very familiar to me! When I was married, and my husband got sick, I had to wait on him, tend to him, nurse him back to health, and make his world all right again! But when ( I ) got sick, I was told to go sleep on the couch, he didn't want to get near me nor even bring me a hot cup of tea! This comming April, it'll be 30 years of being happily divorced!!!!
