I've been sleeping a lot lately between depression and having a cold. I tried to go to bed a couple hours ago and it didn't take so I'm back to computer/tv diversions. Ii hate a toothache but at least they focus away from BP!

awwwww. Sorry Tommy you have been down AND sick. That makes for a not good combination and one feeds the other. My BP has been pretty stable lately, but my physical pain has been terrible. I hate to complain about it though. Makes me feel like people will think I want sympathy or something like that. Is your cold getting any better? Anything good on the boob tube?

Duh!!!!! I forgot to say I hope you feel better soon!!

Thanks. I'm just depressed enough to enjoy it, you know, having naps and comfort food. This rotten cold is better. At least I lost the upper respiratory cough so I'll try to watch it. Are you staying well? I hate being sick on top of BP!

tommy hope you feel better soon
I'm always up at this hour husband works third shift delieving papers so I put myslf on third shift in case I have to help him. I hate being on third shift because I have not seen the sun since I don't know when and I'll tell you thats not good for my depression. I always have the tv on for a little distraction and on the computer.

Thanks f. I don't feel bad, I'm just not asleep. I enjoy the tv and computer and close proximity to the fridge! I don't think I could stand a steady 3d shift schedule and I think you deserve an award!

In a way I am well..............with my bp-besides some intrusive thoughts and some tinkering with my Risperdal dosage-it is doing very well. Physically, I am a sore, hurting mass of flesh. My body hurts so bad sometimes that I want to amputate the offending part(s). I hurt my back in '96 and now it is affecting my back, hips, and legs plus my right knee is going out on me. All this from someone who don't like to complain. Sheesh!! ;) I love comfort food and I guess my girth shows it. Always have and probably always will.

Ouch, Z! I sure hope you can manage all that discomfort. I don't think it's complaining if you mention it. Now if we could only find some low-fat comfort food!

I know what you mean about hurting. I have BP as well as fibro so if I'm not hurting from one the other one is giving me problems.

Mfph...(rolls over) all your talking is keeping me awake. Here, Tommy - will some of my Nyquil help?

*hugs*

I am still on my coffee..........just went for my second cup of chocolate delight. Yum-O. Will think about food a bit later. Not hungry even though I went to bed without eating supper. I hardly ever eat when I first get up anyways. Takes me a bit to find my stomach. I think I have fibro as well though it has not been dx'd. I have a lot of very tender spots on my bones and muscles and the pain is unbearable at times. SIGH. I wish I could be an Oscar Mayer weiner instead!! ;)

I could send some stuff over...I just made corn chowder and cabbage beef soup and cornbread dressing and apple & pumpkin pies yesterday evening (rainy & bored & weird groceries)....

:)

Sounds yummy. Maybe I am hungry!! ;)

Sounds good Going, but I've got valerian to help me sleep if I need it. What I need to do is get back on schedule! I'm gonna go try again.

G'night Tommy!!
