Get your jammies on, get in bed, here is a bell if you need anything. I will be in my sewing studio. Sorry if I don't always hear the bell.

I remember when we first got married and he got sick and refused to go to the doctor. I told him to go lie in the bed and die if he didn't go to the Dr. because I wasn't gonna listen to his whining. He went to the room and came out 10 minutes later wanting to go. Turned out he had pneumonia. I know it sounded mean but it worked and 20 years later he still knows not to whine if he doesn't want to go to the Dr.

Do I have one of the rare breed? I know if he asks to go to the dr or the emergency room then something serious is up. And we've had six of these visits in the last two weeks. He knows not to whine, cos I tae no notice. And our son's the same way.

My husband hardly ever gets sick. He doesn't even notice it when he does feel bad, and I only notice it because when his nose is stuffy he snores something fierce, which never happens otherwise. I told him if he finds me in another bed in the morning it's because of his snoring!
