After 24 yrs together, (21 of those married) my hubby still surprises me at times.

Wow! That is amazing that your hubby did that for you and your son! Did he quit his job to be a STHD??

Well, my hubby and I have been married a little over a year and he of course does things that surprise me and make me feel so special.

Well, no, he isn't a SAHD by choice. He pulled his back out on the job in April 2005 and after numerous doctor appointments and tests we found he has degenerative disk disease plus two herniations into his spinal cord. The disks affected are L3, L4, and L5 which are the lowest ones in your back. The herniations push against the sciatic nerve and sometimes his right leg goes out on him. He flipped over my rocking chair the first time it happened. Second time he was driving and had to use his left foot to stop the car. His doctor won't release him to return to work and the company he worked for turned him loose two weeks after this all happened. Now he is waiting to see another surgeon for a second opinion. The first surgeon only gave a 50% chance of being able to walk after surgery so he wouldn't operate on Ernie.

I was a full time student. Financial aid just wasn't making it for us anymore so I withdrew from my classes and found a job. Once we get back on our feet and get bills paid then I will finish my schooling. For now, the job was necessity.
