PLANS FOR THE DAY.....

Wow..it is almost noon on this lazy Saturday morning...I have been up since around 8:30...Max actually let me sleep in for a change...was kind of nice. Hubster had a doctors appointment this morning...things aren't too good there, I will save that post for a different time....let's just say his blood pressure is through the roof, along with his cholesterol and he is in the early stages of heart disease..he is on medication for both, had to go see the doctor for a checkup this morning to get his prescription refilled. Anyway, he doesn't take very good care of himself, doesn't eat right, doesn't exercise and never gets enough sleep, I truly believe he has sleep apnea, yet he will not go to and have an evaluation done. When he sleeps, he snores so loud, then he gets to coughing, and just stops breathing for a minute. It scares the holy hell out of me. He really worries me, but yet he won't listen...sometimes, I feel totally helpless...because he is only 44 years old, I fear he may either stroke out or have a heart attack before he is 50.
I don't know how I would cope without him...it would devestate me and Max would be totally lost without his Dad. I need him, the kids need him, yet I can not get him to realize how important it is that he take care of himself. I do all that I can, yet...it is not enough. It seems like he is just getting worse. How do you make someone go to the doctor if they won't? There are no answers...I just keep my fingers crossed, say a prayer that he will get better....his MOther pleads and begs with him as much as I do, yet to no avail. At least he is on medication for his blood pressure and heart. For awhile, he refused to take even that.
Right now, he is sleeping/snoring on the chaise...Max is arguing with Justin (13) yr old, Aaron is in his room playing Playstation.
They are loud, unruly and bouncing off the walls. I am working on my third cup of coffee, trying to "wake"up enough to clean up breakfast dishes and straighten up the rest of the house.
It looks like it is going to be a beautiful, yet cool, day...I know I need to get these wild ones out of the house, so that hubby can sleep...or try to.
I think we will go to the movies.....possibly to see the new BEE Movie...has anyone seen that? Looks like it will be a cute one...
Well, guess I better get off of here...Max is bugging me to death...wanting to play a computer game and the dishes are a callin' me...
Have a great weekend everyone...I hope it's nice, relaxing and enjoyable for you.
