I want my kitchen back!

I am still recovering from my surgery of three weeks ago, and as such I cannot do any housework yet. I am relying on my husband for that. I love him dearly and he does do a wonderful job, but right now my kitchen is a mess. Because I am limited on what I can do, all I have accomplished is doing dishes and fixing an easy breakfast each day.

I suppose I shouldn't complain too much, he is doing the laundry. He also is working part time right now, so his time is somewhat limited, too. But, the kitchen floor hasn't been swept in two weeks, the garbage can is over-flowing, and I can't see my countertop. I could get broom out to sweep, but I can't bend over to push it into the dustpan. I could ask my mom to come over and help, but I am the type of person who hates to ask anyone for help.

I have three more weeks before I am released to go back to work. Surely, by then I will have my kitchen back. Since I am not really doing any cooking this week, I don't have a recipe for you. I'll have to pick out one of my husband's dinner items and post it soon.

Thanks for reading,
Carol

Hahaha...maybe it's genetic. The kids were gone for two weeks; I've been spending 2-3 hours in the library per day, but yet no one except me knows how to empty the trash can! What is it with the men? I thought that was supposed to be their job!
