Journal Entry for November 10, 2007 Mood
Saturday, November 10, 2007

Ok did someome kick me in the lower back with an army boot last night?  When I woke up this morning I couldn't move my lower back with out so much pain it brought tears to my eyes.  I proceeded to shuffle my way to the kitchen to get me a glass of water.  I then went to sit down and take a drink, and spilled my whole glass of water on the floor.  I begged the dogs to clean it up for me because I could not bend over to get it  myself.  Then I went to turn on my heat pad to find out it had been unplugged.  Well reaching over the back of the chair was really a ridiculous idea.  No way, so here I sit with my heat pad and the plug sitting in my lap.  lol  I have to laugh at myself, however it hurts to laugh.  I went in the therapeutic pool yesterday.  I helped my husband clean up alittle yesterday.  I guess I overworked my back yesterday.  Maybe it will be better when my meds kick in.  I hope so.  Not looking forward to being home alone today.  Thanks my friends for listening.  Much appreciated!!!

    So sorry about all your pain! It is really the pits. It affects everything we do! I pray the Lord will touch you with His healing virtue and make you well! You can't keep a good woman down! Your sense of humor is the best. A merry heart does do good like a medicine!

    I'm sorry you are hurting so much. I keep thinking about all that I need to do but have been hurting too much to get it all done. Time to get the boys in my house to do something. They are out of school today because of a bomb threat.

When I woke up this morning I still felt so tired.  When I started to move my back pain kicked in.  Took meds I'll begin to feel better in about 30 min.  I am going to get to go out today.  I am going swimming in a therapeutic warm pool.  Then I am going to get to go shopping with my hubby.  I hope I can muster up the energy to do so.  The tech that did my CT scan yesterday said the doc's would be able to get the reports Monday or Tuesday of next week.  I may get to go spend Christmas with my kids and grandkids.  That would bring me such joy.  I may get to stay a month if my doctor will work around my visit.  I would love to go and take pictures.  But if I know if I go it will be hard to come back.  I have no family or friends here where I live.  I keep in touch with them via email or phone.  Plus my friends I have here.  So I am not totally isolated.  I hope this day is a good one for all.

    Good luck with the plan to see your family. I am taking a couple days to go to MS. I am not sure how I will do after flying. I may need that wheelchair that my husband talked about to get through the airport.
