Lisa I hope you can sleep. I know I need to as we have so much to do in 2 days. I was very hypped up tonight.
I will check back in the the REAL morning.... LOL
I am friendly, but Am I goofy too? LOLOL
Lisa I hope you get some sleep. Why don't you call your drs office and ask to speak to the nurse and ask her if she will request the tens unit for you now? Asking is free.
Pauli I hope you rest up. I didn't realize you have only 2 more days to move. Oh my! Wish we all could be there to help in our own slow ways.
I fell asleep at 10! Unbelievable! I woke up at 12:30 though so here I am. I hope I can get some sleep soon. Sleep is something that I have struggled with for many years though. There isn't any position to lay in that doesn't hurt my body. I need a cloud to lay on. Does anyone have one for sale cheap?
Did anyone see the sun explosions? and how it hit the earth? I recorded this on my tv, because the pics were spectacular. Also I can't help but wonder if those magnetic fields don't add or even cause pain. The electricity in them is very potent.
I wonder this because I had a magnetic imaging study done on my hands and arms during my workers comp days. I did this in Springfield, Il. it is 1 of 5 machines in the country that does this. It shows electricity in your pain areas. Workers Comp hired this dr but the dr ended up asking me if he could take pics of my hands and arms. I asked why and he said he had a convention he was going to and he had never seen as much electricity and activity in anyone as mine. I have never been able to wear a watch because of this.
I can't help but wonder how someone with fibro, myofascial, tendonitis, etc.. would do on this test. And then add the sun blasts and do it again.
Sorry I should have put this on a post. My brain is loopy at 2:30ish in the morning!
I wish each and everyone of you a pleasant day with less pain.
Toni
I'm with those t
Low pain and good thoughts to all...jc
Lisa>>I hope you get some sleep and as Pauli said asking for the TENS unit is free.
Pauli>>what are you doing up? I happen to love goofy! Now go to bed! And check in in the morning.
Toni>>So with you on the sleep issue! 3 to 4 hours in bed and my body is screaming. I haven't slept a full night in over 3 years. I loved your expose on magnetic imaging. I would like to have that done, if only out of curiosity.
JC>>go to bed! LOL!
Me>>>Fell into bed by 7:30pm. New pup wore me out!
We had a good day. We had voted on names, and decided on the top three. We tried them out with the pup. One just did not fit. Two he did not respond to at all. Three, JASPER, which suits him, he responded to as if "oh, yes, that's my name, yes,yes,yes, I am yours!"
He is a good pup, if a bit timid, having been abused and traumatized. We are having to go slow and gentle and reassure. He has already gotten to were he won't let me out of his sight. And when I went to bed, he came with me. DH came in before he comes to bed to try and take him out, and Jasper stood on me growling at him. I reassured him and he went reluctantly. And ran like gang busters to me as soon as they were back in the door. He even put up a bit of a fuss when DH came to bed. We both reassured him and DH was very gentle and loving with him. It appears as if he was abused by a man. Throughout our day, and on walks and stuff, when we would meet people he was all over the women, but wanted nothing to do with the men, even begging for me to pick him up as he seemed afraid. It breaks my heart what some people will do to an animal.
So slow and easy it is. He is really quite sweet and very well behaved. Needs a little training, but is smart and already catching on. He has yet to bark and other than growling at men out of fear, he is quiet.
Nealy>>>I have NO IDEA how you have made it with a brood of puppies! This one pup has me so exhausted. You are amazing!
Wishing everyone a good and less pain day! Sending hugs, love, and comfort.
Tonna
I had an unfortunate visit with my garage floor yesterday. Tripped on absolutely nothing...landed on a step. UGH...Pulled my back and and felt the nerve pain instantly in my right leg. Ohh that was NOT a good thing. I am hurting so bad this morning. Hubby made me mad...it was kinda like he was saying....now what. I know he has to see me struggling everyday but geeze...can you show a little compassion. Maddy (9yr old) was so sweet. She came and snuggled with me in bed and brought me my heating pack for my leg and ice pack for my back. She put her sisters earmuffs on and brought her giant stuffed dalmation in and said "Ho ho ho.....I am here to cheer you up!!!" Toooo funny!!!
To make it worse...today is our crazy wednesday. Maddy has 3 hrs of dance and then we go to house church. I also am going up to my old work to visit everyone. They have had it posted for a week that I am coming so I do not want to cancel. I see my PM dr tomorrow but I am sure I just flared up everything and it will get better in a few days. Funny all this winter I have been afraid of ice and here I go and trip on NOTHING!! Big sigh.....
I hope everone has a great day!! And get's some sleep. lol
Autumn
Tonna, I think when I hear of animal abuse I could actually hurt someone and not feel bad about it. I have no idea how someone could hurt a little animal no matter what kind little or big. I am so glad the pup got his forever home and it is with you what a lucky dog and you are just as lucky to find him a great match.
Another day, here we go again. I did not do a whole bunch yesterday so my list is quite long today. I went swimming on Monday and my body was sore from using all those un used muscles. I am feeling ok today except this leg acting up, I have nerve problems in it and I am sure the swim brought some of those issues up. If I was smart I would go again and that would help but I dont want to go by myself. On Monday there was no school so my five year old niece went with me.
Hope everyone has a good hump day
Lisa, I hope you got back to sleep.
I told you I would be back in the REAL morning.
Toni I didn't know about the thing you recorded...... You would think I would have heard of that... well I did hear about it but not when.
Jan you have got to rest at some point... I hope you can.
If swimming would help you Manny then go.
I am like you.... how can you hurt an animal? I mean just how?
I am trying to stay up for the last 2 days before we move. I have a good bit to do. but not too much I don't think.
TY all for your support, Hugs
Autumn, i am so sorry about your fall.... maddy sounds wonderful.
Tonna, I am so happy for Jasper... TY for rescuing him.
I still haven't kicked into gear yet.
I did sleep 6 hours last night so that's good.
Not expecting much of a day today, the weather is warm again today so I'll probably spend some of it outside.
I don't feel too bad so far so maybe I'm due for a good day.
Sorry to see so many others having sleep trouble. I guess I should start checking in more in the middle of the night.
Hope you all have a good day,
Mike
I've had stomach pain and nausea for the past few days and was finally feeling better...just back to some body pain at about a 7. Then my roomie emptied 2 boxes of mothballs all over my cellar because we had smelled skunk a couple days ago. I am feeling so sick, now. I had to go down in the cellar to start a woodfire after he did this!
One of the plumbers from my Son's business is supposedto come service my boiler and install something or other, this morning. My roomie knew that when he turned the house toxic. And he's mad at me???? My living arrangement needs to change. Actually his does...it's my house!
I have a very difficult time with confrontation and he's taken ownership of my house.
Thanks, though.
Paulina, You know what??? This morning I was talking with Little Duck and I said to her “Merry Christmas Honey” She said “it’s not Christmas though” and I replied “yeah, but doesn’t it make you feel good to say it?” She repeated it back to me and said “yeah, it really does!” You are not crazy my friend.
Irocket, I never heard of solar flares for last night so…I did not see them. You do bring up an interesting point though. Hmmm, I will have to put my thinking cap on.
Jancam, I don’t know if any of us are ever ready for AM…no matter what time it comes.
4Solace, wow, did Nealy start a new puppy raising club or something? I like the name Jasper. I also like the name GusGus. I hope you enjoy every moment of puppy breath and falling over their own legs!
Autumn, you are not supposed to get that close to your garage or any other floor! I am so sorry that you hurt so bad and that you fell. I know it took me several days before I felt like my body was going to live when I feel a few weeks ago. I pray for quick healing for you my friend.
Manny, go swimming. Who cares!?! Its not like you are nekkid!
Mike, our sleeping issues are all your fault. You rubbed off on all of us and now we caught your sleep deprived syndrome!
Cherry, sounds like you got the flu or something. I hope you are able to get over it quick.
Sisyphis, good morning to you and HUGS
Kate333, Get through your work and try and take lots of breaks so you don’t kill yourself with more pain and stress
ME>>> Taking my son to his appt. in a few moment and, little duck is in the shower. She was in pretty bad shape last night but, I think things are a little better this am. I really think we are headed for a hospitalization if she can’t pull out of it. Uuuggghhh, she breaks my heart, I just hurt for her and, I am amazed by her too!
My sleep has been good lately…lots of it! I am so thankful for that. My pain is normal for me except for my left knee which is way way wacked right now and I don’t know why. It is pretty painful.
I have an appt for the 1st for my Thoracic MRI. However, my previous Neuro whom I have a lot of faith and trust in does NOT accept my medical insurance through the state so, now I will have to find another neuro and start the process over. ICK!
Hugs and LOVE to you all!
