Racer, go to the substitute PT, if you've got to-- but there are two ways of slicing that loaf of bread. It would also be great if you cancelled-- a tremendous sign of progress, of standing up for yourself, etc.
(I don't mean to confuse the issue, now that it's resolved. but - I have this "dam*ed if you do, da*ned if you don't" syndromes, in which there's always an upside and a downside to any action-- and that downside will be exactly what I think about--so I hope you won't do that.)
At a PT, I could never walk out-- I'd be too self-conscious-- I'd feel the need to pretend that I was fine-- even if my head was screaming "get yourself (and me) out of this place asap."
I don't mean to go all ballistic on your husband-- but what is this How do I do the wash thing?
My Sig O will say stuff like, how do you replace a bulb? (well not quite)-- but "how do you know if the vegetables are cooked?" and I try to say, in as pleasant a voice as possible-- that 1. "you look at them, and if they look cooked, you try one, and if it tastes cooked, it is. Although you might want to make sure they all look like that one..." and 2. "what, am I a crystal ball, do I have a special line to the vegetables, though which they tell me if they're cooked? I mean, why am I supposed to know any more than you do???"
But I'm more than a little short-tempered. And easily spun out of control.
And by the way, who said he was " helping out?" who said he wasn't doing the laundry, cause it needed to be done?
Okay, I'm a crank.
I'll be much more sympathetic about this all in my next post. (See below, soon.)
