Relax and figure out how to enjoy your day like your husband wished for you. Would a hot shower help your back? I have a showerhead that can be made more intense and that helped my neck/shoulder in the middle of the night this summer when I'd be hurting and out of sorts.
Do you have a good book or interesting project to work on? A paper you wish you had more time for? Get the scared to turn it into "enjoyment", we're here with you.
Construct a magic wand you can give your T? I'd write things on paper (powers) and then make some sort of flour paste
http://www.halloweenfear.com/Papiermache1.html and work them into a wand shape (with some sort of "mace" :-) tip? Just in case you needed it for hitting him over the head because he wasn't getting it :-)
