My wife doesn’t work over the summer and stays at home with the dog all day. Yesterday afternoon @ 4:30, she called me at work and said the dog was vomitting up worms & she was scared to touch the vomit. She said if I wasn’t ready to leave work, our neighbor had offered to help her clean it up and take the dog to the vet. I told her no, I was ready to leave work so it was fine.
When I got home, I scooped up the vomit into a container and she put the dog into my car. He vomitted again in the backseat.
We got him to the vet and wife filled out all the papers, talked to the doctors, etc. The treatment ended up costing 0.00 and the actual visit took about 1.5 hours. Since I had no money because I’d just paid the mortgage, she walked to the gas station and took it out of her savings account.
Without being asked she bought me a soda and a bag full of snacks from the gas station knowing I was hungry.
When we got home, I told her to clean up the vomit in the house and I’d clean up what was in the car.
She asked if we could do it together because she was afraid of the worms. She goes,"I don’t mind doing my fair share, I’m just really scared of the worms and don’t want to do it alone". I snapped at her, "No, just go in your room or something", but she came outside anyway and bought me cleaning supplies for the car.
After I scooped up the intial vomit that was full of worms, she offered to scrub and sanitize the carpet but I told her to leave me alone and go back in the house because she was annoying me.
So she went to her home office and closed the door for 30 minutes. Then she ordered two pizzas, one with jalepenos the way I like it and paid for it.
I didn’t talk to her the entire night, even when we ate dinner. Finally, she went and got in bed. While she was laying down I asked her, "Did you give the dog his meds?"
She said she forgot, so I rolled my eyes and sucked my teeth and went to give the medicine.
She got up and helped me, then we went to bed
