I really did it this time. I worked way too much yesterday and paying for it today. I need to make a living so I didn't refuse anyone. Hairdressing is not for weak or lazy, for sure. I was feeling better than usual so I took advantage of that.
My pain is out of control today and I'm close to tears. The last two nights I've taken 300mg. of Neurontin for my pinched nerves. I started yesterday with less pain and was able to keep it under control until late in the day...using my regular pain meds, of course. I took the same last night along with my sleep meds and didn't wake up until 6:30 this morning! I'm usually up between 3 and 4. I think it must be a combination of too much physical labor and staying in one postion too long. I can barely function today.
I really want to go to the grand opening of my son's new business, but can't imagine how I can pull it off. It's a 30 to 40 minute drive from here and even with someone else driving, it's going to be unbearable.
I guess I'm done whining...time to 'buck up'!

I've had way too much going on and it's beating me down.
If your anything like me you know that you'll feel worse if you miss out than if you suffer through it.
Sending all the extra strength I have to you today, I hope you pull it off.
I hope your pain gets undercontrol today. Days like these i take an epsom salt bath. At least its relife for 30 min to a few hrs.
hugs
hang in there
hope you feel better soon. Sending you positive thoughts and prayers that you will be able to make it to your son's.

We've been having some really extreme weather lately and the sky looks very threatening. My Sister's driving is enough to put me on edge in good weather!

I'm struggling with guilt, as usual, that my son will think I don't care enough to make the effort to show my support. It's become a part of my daily thoughts...always feeling like I'm letting someone down.
I had such a rough, long Winter and kept telling myself that warmer weather would make me feel better. Not so...it's really kicking my depression into a new level.
Sorry about the rambling,
Cherry
It's great to know you, hang in there.
David.
Hugs,
