Nice addition, Kathryn! Ok, here's my tale of my lazy inactive day today.
Yeah, when I'm not on top of everything, keeping all the plates spinning and organized, I do feel lazy, even if I have a good reason for things being this way. I am learning to let it all go and give the request and just sit and wait. It's not easy. Changing a 25-year pattern around here is tough.
DH is worn out. His shoulder hurts because he was stretching it. His therapist years ago told him to not let it get stiff, so if he feels it's getting stiff he does some stretching. He doesn't want to get frozen shoulder and this time I fear he's over-done it as usual. Now he thinks he's pulled something in his back and he could hardly walk across the parking lot to get the car for us. I think it's so much driving back and forth in all that traffic that's affecting his back. And I know he's not just feeling sorry for himself as that's so NOT his way.
Last night he was sleeping in any available spot as I moved him from place to place. I was so sick I was frightened and wanted him with me...so he did a lot of standing in the throne room. Blessed, I was along with you with the headache. I did think of R Rose too as I went through that 8-9 hours of misery. Nurse told me she's seen grown men cry, experiencing what I was going through. What make anybody think men's pain is any different from women's? Or that they have to be tougher?
It's cold here again, into the 50's in the AM. Where is this weather coming from? We have space heaters going again.
We go to drs. again tomorrow, but the closer one. Today was at both places, the 45 in away one and the one in the big city. Lots of driving. And I was very motion sick through all of it. These places are going to start charging us rent, we've been there so much. DH just sits in waiting room and takes naps! Dee, we go up to Bee Ridge and over to 41 and a few miles north, so we're right in the middle of a lot of traffic. The best doctors are always in the bigger cities, aren't they?
Blessed, I guess DD will have to find a job if she's to live on her own? I can understand your worry. But if you are her supportive safety net, maybe this will be a step forward for her to figure out independent life? Hoping for the very best outcome.
Thinking about Norma too. Recovered health for sure.
Ok, I'm off to bed. Hopefully a good night's sleep to make up for yesterday.
