Such a High Price to Pay Mood
Wednesday, July 1, 2009 | A General Update story
I am hardly able to move today because I did some very simple things yesterday.  After showering and getting ready to go out, I drove to my sister's house where I played with her dogs, sat and talked, ate dinner, washed a few dishes, and filled 6 gallon containers of water.  After filling my trunk with the water, I headed to three different stores in the same square to shop for necessities and food.  With a full trunk I headed home.  By the time I had unloaded and put the groceries away, I was hyperventilating with excruciating pain.  I have the body/lifestyle of a 76 year old!  So today walking hurts, sitting hurts, standing hurts, laying down hurts.  When the hell will I get any relief?  When?  Why such a high price to pay for 5 hours out of the house?

    i couldn't do what you did in one day. it would take me a week. pacing is the secret. one big thing a day or maybe two, but that's it. so sorry for your pain. why don't you call me?

    Yes thank you needinghope, it is better today, since I've done nothing but sit all day so far. The truth is that sadly I am NEVER pain-free.....sigh.
