Another bloody terrible sleep. Woke every time I turned over due to the pain. Also woke several times with my left arm numb or tingling. That is something new to deal with and watch how frequently it is occurring. Eventually wake at 6 am and get some meds on board then back to bed as feeling shattered due to creepy sleep. Lay there thinking about things for a bit before giving into sleep again. Wake then at 8. Have a nice cuppa tea brought to me and I lay in bed reading a bit before getting up and getting ready to face the day.
Have some breakfast and and watch Kayla open her birthday present. Start to pack up the house and car and as need to leave about midday. All packed and ready to leave with plenty of time to spare so head off to the tennis courts and have a bit of a hit around there. I don’t last to long as it is hurting to much so sit in the shade and watch. We then head off for home. Stop at Little River to get an ice cream as it is bloody hot today!! Say bye to the Booth family – thanks for a great weekend, then hit the road for home. Nice to be home again, have some lunch and get unpacked, and have a breather for an hour before heading off to see Craig as he is having his house warming today. He couldn’t have picked better weather for it. Catch up with Fish, AUBERY, Dutch, Kev, Fridge and Craig and have a couple of drinks and laughs. I hope Aubery saw his name in the blog this time as I would hate to be nagged more about it Don’t stay to late as boys have school tomorrow and I’m still hurting quite a bit so need to be home to take my meds.
I wish that there was an easy way to stop the pain. It really makes me wonder, that if I find it tough to take then how the hell do kids manage it? Maybe I’m just a softy that can’t take the pain really. Or do they get their meds more closely monitored? It is hard work covering up just how bad the pain is somedays as people don’t need to see me suffering. So no prizes for guessing what is getting me down at the moment! So fingers crossed tomorrow I get given a magic bullet to stop or minimise the pain again. Will let you know how it goes tomorrow night – maybe.
Home for dinner, Blog and some relaxing staring at the TV Thanks to those that have got in touch as they’re concerned about be. Sorry about the slow replying as been in a cell blackout spot. But thanks for the concern – nice to know you’re there. I’m OK – bloody hurting all over a lot but I’m fine otherwise. Hopefully they’ll take a better look tomorrow with the Doc and come up with a better plan of attack. I managed to hold off the hospital locking me up, though they did have a bed put aside for me in case I needed it, and to save me going through A&E. M&D time and bed – a time I am now starting to dread really as I tend to wake up and the brain goes into overtime, and after I get some restless sleep I then wake to agony – it is just shitty. Hope all have had a brilliant weekend and done lots of bad things I won’t tell.
Kia Kaha.
