goodbye nurse, hello teacher

Today is the last day I get to play nurse, and tomorrow will find me back in the classroom trying to stay focused. It will be hard knowing that hubby is home alone, with no one to do all the things I've been doing for the last five days. I'm going to prep a few things ahead of time so that he'll have food, drinks, and other stuff he needs nearby, but I can't have everything at the ready. The fact of the matter is that he'll have to do some things on his own, and it's going to be tough.

I know it's important that I be at work. You know, that whole paycheck thing. But, I really wish I could continue to be home to keep caring for my husband, plain and simple. Sadly, this isn't possible, and I hope he finds an even higher level of strength over the next few days. I wonder how many times I'll be calling home tomorrow to check on him. I should probably apologize to my co-teacher now, because I know I'm going to be distracted tomorrow.

Sigh.

Wishing I could be everything for everyone,
