I haven't posted much over the weekend just to give myself a break. For the past several days I have been getting very little sleep and, to use a phrase that my dad used to use all the time, I feel like I have been rode hard and put up wet" (referring to a horse and rider I'm sure.). Since I don't move that fast, I would probably compare myself more to the way a mule feels after having pulled a plow through a 40 acre field.
To put it another way, my back is killing me and my knees feel like someone mistook me for Nancy Kerrigan. For those of you that don't remember her, she was a very beautiful Olympic figure skater who, while competing in the 1994 Olympics, had har knee smashed with a lead pipe by a man associated with one of her rivals...
The pain got bad enough during the night that I finally took 2 loratab at the same time and got enough relief that I was able to drift off to sleep. I can't make that a habit, however, because I am only supposed to take 3 a day and then take the Percocet if the Loratab don't work. On top of that, I hate taking any of the narcotics for fear that I wil get hooked on them. I will literally lay in bet in tears, sometimes for hours, before taking something for the pain. To steal from the name of a famous soap opera, such are the days of my life....
