So last night I was in bed at like 7pm because the pain was acting up and I was tired even though I really didn't do much at all yesterday. I wake up this morning and the pain is almost none existent between a 1-2. I'm happy in the moment but I've been fooled way too many times. It starts to feel like it's getting better and going away then BOOM...it's back. I'm PRAYING this time is different but I will just take the win minute to minute and see how the day goes.
Work wise I need to start work on this ULINE project. This afternoon I'll work on scheduling the sales install. The worst part about that is just trying to schedule everyone to get this done at the same time. It's like herding cats around here!
Mentally I'm still doing well. The pain always has an impact on my mental state but less then it use to. I have a followup on 2/19 with my primary doc to discuss the med changes.
Another cold dreary day but that's fine as I wouldn't have time to do outside with all the work I have to do. I hope to take advantage of the spring/summer months like I did last year. At least I was running the lake. My stupid knee has been acting up but even if I can just walk around the lake that will be fine I guess. I'll slap on the knee brace and just take it step by step but I don't want to push too hard as the last thing I need is more pain!
Alright, I'm procrastinating a bit so more coffee then time to make the donuts :)  and pray, pray, pray for a mild pain day....
 11:07am
Updated the pain to 3. Still not too bad that's basically the daily average. Fun.
Work wise I created the initial form for ULINE. Dimwits changed the naming conventions of course you have to find that the hard way. The testing dork is still horsing around with that box. Why is everything so f-ing hard for these people? Are they totally stupid or just lazy? Let's say both! Fist it took over a week to get the box, then the initial login was wrong then the box login was wrong now the resolution is so huge all I can see is like two letters. Come on man! Set the f-king thing up right before telling people it's ready! Did the idiot even look at the f-ing thing before saying its ready? Wow.
Anywho, I'm trying to warm up the basement so I can lift. Not really motivated (surprise, surpsrise) but at least I'll do something other then work today. I have to put air in my tires because the stupid rims are so old they leak. I think I need a new car after 14 years. It's still in good shape but it's silly to put more money into it at this point.
The weather is supposed to be okay tomorrow morning as I need to hit the grocery store which I don't want to do but it needs to be done. I need to clean the house too. It's not really dirty but I need to keep up with it because of the asthma.
So for today I just want to get that ULINE form built and finish testing the sales stuff before scheduling the install.
Another 10 minutes and I'll start to lift...maybe I can get the basement above 60 today...heat wave....
 7:11pm
So for the most part today was a mild pain day. Can't ask for much more then that at this point.
I lifted today and had a better workout then expected. I even got the basement to 62 degrees! They are calling for 6 inches of snow tomorrow night so I have to hit the grocery store in the morning. I was planning to anyway but I want to get there before all the nuts start piling in. People act like we never had snow here. It's not the end of the world people!
I'm about ready for bed. I have a ton of work now since they sent that UP project stuff. I haven't even looked at it yet. One thing at a time.
So praying for a mild pain night and maybe a better day tomorrow....God willing...
