Aloha Friday - When You Are Sick


Well, it is Aloha Friday time! This will be my first so for any of you who do not know what Aloha Friday is...

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that people take it easy and look forward to the weekend (sound familiar?). So, we take it easy on Friday blog posts by sticking to just one quick question that surfers-by can answer with just a quick response themselves. This week's question is:

When you are sick do you have someome that helps you and picks up the slack for you? Or does the house fall to pieces until you are better?

Me: I am so lucky. Hubby took such good care of me while I was sick this week. He got up with the baby, he took care of the kids, he let me sleep. Not only that he cleaned and organized the kitchen cabinets. I swear I don't know what I would do without him!!!

  2. Pieces. lol. Actually my husband is pretty good when I'm sick. I think this question is funny because I just posted the other day on how mad I get when my hubby is sick and complaining. lol

  3. My husband would help when our kids were young too.....that's if I'm sick. Once I went to Hawaii to visit with my family for two weeks...he hadn't done "any" dishes or laundry! *L*

  5. Normally my house is already clean. I guess I would say the family go on with their daily routines and leaves me be. Hubby will take my daughter out. The house is put on 'the wait til Mom Gets better' List.lol

  10. Someone that helps me when I'm sick? HAHAHA, you're funny! Seriously though, I get very little help around here. When I am sick I just suck it up and do what HAS to get done, and leave the rest for when I'm feeling better.

  11. NOPE!
    When I'm sick I'm sick and the laundry still has to get done or it's a bigger problem the next day.

  18. Well, my husband has been good to pick up slack in the past, but more often than not now, it is my 12 yo and 13 yo daughters who pick up the slack and help with the other 5 kids and the housework when I'm sick. Unless it's laundry folding ... that tends to get ignored.

  19. I am lucky that my hubby really does try. Of course when I end up sick he suddenly isn't feeling well and I do not get much sympathy.

    I hope you are stating to feel better today.

  20. Generally when I'm sick I'm on my own with the kids.

  21. Everything goes to pieces and I'm left to pick up those pieces when I recover!

  22. I don't have time to be sick! Being a single mom to 4 lil boys I do it all myself!

  23. Definitely goes to pieces. I've learned to keep some frozen dinners that you heat up in the skillet along w/ frozen veg around though. At least they get fed!

  24. Depends lol My husband is so good at helping.. but if I could plan being sick on the weekend.. lol it would be better for every one's schedule!

  25. Um, well... the necessities get done (thanks to hubby), but beyond that the house becomes a general mess til I feel better. :)

  26. My husband is a terrible housekeeper, and not very good at taking care of anyone, so thank goodness I don't get sick often!

  27. Hubby is great at taking care of me and always has and we have been together for 35yrs now. I am really lucky.

  28. Nothing really changes unless it's Saturday when we are both off work and then I will get to take naps. He normally cooks, helps with laundry, cleans the kitchen, and helps with some diaper changes. I'm super lucky.
