Perfect Relationships

Sunday, July 15, 2012 ~ July 2012 Unofficial: FOLLOW ME BLOGGING CHALLENGE prompt is What are the qualities you look for in the perfect relationship? by Emily

If I had composed this entry on Sunday instead of Monday, I would have said there was no such thing as a perfect relationship. However, my experience on Sunday has put an entirely new light on this subject. I was ill (all though I think that is an understatement) Sunday. I had the dry heaves, I wanted to sleep, I was in pain (unfortunately, I was too ill to eat so that I could take my pain medication), and I still had to take care of Mom all day. The only one who got anything to eat Sunday was Mom and she ate dry cereal all day because I could not fix anything else. The only writing I managed on Sunday was finishing the fantasy newsletter.

Cater to my needs
The perfect relationship
When I am in pain

I want someone to wait on me when I am sick and in pain. I want someone to take care of Mom when I am sick. I want someone to remind me what meds to give or take at what time when I am in pain. I want someone to tell me it is better to eat a little bit, even if I do throw it up, then to have the dry heaves. I want someone to fix Mom and me something to eat when I am in pain and sick.

When I am sick and in pain
I ask nothing else
The perfect relationship
