OMG - Emergency Housework

[ufkacbln]

My wife has been in Hospital for the last week after some complications to a knee replacement operation.

They have just phoned to say that she has been discharged and is on her way home!

I need advice on what to do first

 

[MontyVeda]

move the beer bottles.... you've spent the week worrying about her and as a result, you've fallen behind on the housework.. otherwise she'll think you've spent the week getting pissed and pretending you're a bachelor

edit... and whilst you're at it... get tidying and stop posting on CC.

Run.

No need to tidy the kitchen as you are going to be a dutiful husband and therefore not let her go in the kitchen (thus saving the need to tidy that one), but you are going to need to tidy the front room as she is going to see that one (you are going to have to put her somewhere and she will notice everything from her view in a chair!

Yes, tidy the front room first, is that where the beer bottles are? Then I would put fresh clean sheets on the bed that she will be sleeping in tonight. Is there enough milk in the fridge for lots of cups of tea or coffee this evening?

Sounds like some tyres are being pumped up

Tidy and hoover the front room - you can get her comfy in there with her feet up, while you race round doing the other jobs whilst also making her a cuppa. Sorted.

go for a ride

Tidy the kitchen, and explain that you've emptied the beer bottles ready to be put out. That's half the job really...

He hasn't replied, he must be busy running around or adding to the pile of beer bottles!

Meanwhile he managed to get me into trouble as I (and everyone else in the house), was alerted to the fact I was replying on here whilst forgetting the garlic busy burning by the fire alarm

the kitchen is (probably) her pride and joy, tidy it!
hide the beer bottles, she knows you and will guess, but no need to flaunt it!
hide the dirty washing - she knows she is married to a slob, give her another day to imagine she isn't!

Yikes - his Mrs won't want to hear about that

 

[young Ed]

check tyre pressure, check all main bearings, wash jerseys and shorts or bibs and then astalayista!
Cheers Ed

Doing nothing is not really an option. If all the above is true it may be grounds for divorce!

Steady on, she's only been in hospital for a week!
