Hmmm the things my DH says !

[Arial]

Hi everyone :)

The last few weeks i have been so stressed over this ear/head problem i have ( I think the Gp is now going to get me to have a brain scan soon)

Anyway i have hardly been sleeping at nights, so that combined with they symptoms i am experiencing. i have been really grumpy and anxious .Well more than usual :headh:

So earlier today DH came home from work and hands me something (with a take away cupachino), and says i hope this will help you hun....

He had gone to our local crystal shop ( he's not into alternative stuff himself ), and had them make me a Jasper bracelet.

I was so surprised that he had done that !

Then he said it was a bit embarrassing getting it , and i said why??

He said i didn't know what to say to the shop owner ... so i said to her ''Have you got anything here to calm my wife down''? :uhno:

I said you've joking, was there customers in the shop which he replied yep ..

I said so what did the shop owner say in response? and he said she just went and showed him which stones/crystals do what, and he chose the ones he thought would be the best for me ..

He said after i think it may have sounded not quite the way i meant it ...

Ya gotta love em' sometimes don't you !! :comfort:

Anyway i have it on now waiting for it to miraculously turn me into a calm wife :jump:

I'm sure he didn't mean anything by it Julie, he's probably just worried for you :)

I have to admit I don't know whether I believe in a lot of that stuff myself but you have to admire the man for trying. :yes:

Thanks Sw :)

Yeah i just saw the humour in it, i wasn't really offended..

I am into alternative stuff myself, well not as much i used to be.. have got a bit slack in that area..

We even had a alternative style wedding in 2004, which DH went happily along with (even those he's very conservative in his ways of thinking)

hehe... they have a strange way of putting things!! :yes: it was sweet of him to do that for you though..regardless of how it came out!! :)

i hope you feel better soon!!

speaking of things they say... my DF many months ago now referred to me as "thunder thighs" one night!! :brow: as you can imagine i didnt take it to well (and have always been a little too sensitive about my weight!!) and the poor thing was rather bewildered to find me rather teary about it in the bathroom!!! :blink:

he clearly had no understanding of the term (so i tell myself!!:yes:) and had not said it in a hurtful way!!

who knows what they think sometimes...:)

Aww, I think it's sweet - it was lovely that he thought of it, and he did try :) AND at least you got a coffee as well :hehe:

Hope you can get some good rest at least, that can't be helping your other symptoms :( Have you tried valerian to help with the sleeping?

Oh no ! eeeeK !

Yeah they have a way of saying it as it is, even if it's not tactful.. I don't think they ever mean it in a malicious way it's just that they don't think sometimes do they ! ;)

[Mad Old Cow]

well Arial, at least you know he really cares & just wants to help you, it was really sweet lol

[Patricia]

Arial..what a lovely thought...:)

Please let us all know how it goes with the bracelet.

[redrobyn]

What a sweet gesture, gotta love it.

[kezabelle]

I think that's really sweet! :) I can't imagine my hubby even thinking of something like that. And so great of him to step outside his own comfort zone to consider yours :D

[kimba]

That is sooo sweet. What a great snag u have there. Very lucky:)

[Arial]

awwww thanks ladies ! :)

[miss kiki]

how sweet! i wish my DF would do that more often! :hehe:

[Rachel]

Arial , that is so nice.. Sounds like you have a very thoughtful hubby :)

[Heather]

You make sure you pass on these comments to him....the dear little souls like to hear they have done the right thing.

[Cherie]

How nice of him to do that for you. He sounds very caring.
Have to admit I have quite a few Crystals hanging around the place. Good Feng shui :D
