I tried from the time I got up, every minute that I could stand to sit in my chair before the pain drove me out to my bed or to at least move. But still I am 2 days behind on the notification bell of blogs I follow and more important … My beloved comments. I simply have run out of steam. Ron brought me a supper of a huge roast beef / gravy sandwich which he admitted he knew was far too much for me. He then cut it in half and added a few of the fried sliced potatoes, which are grand when hot, not such when cold. Yes he loves me but he is on a kick to try to get me to eat more, which I don’t want. He can eat as much as he likes, I never judge, but he seems driven to get me to eat more all the time. In our last A1C tests his blood sugars were high while mine were very low. Oh well. I am not judging as next time it could be reversed.
But the point is I have run out of steam. I am tired to the point where every other key I hit seems to be the wrong one. I need rest, the medications, pain, and the other stuff have had their say. Love each one of you but sadly it ends here for today. Good news, I will see you in the morning. Normally the pain drives me from bed by 3 or 4 am so I might catch up then. Hugs, loves. Scottie
Rest well! Have a cooky when you get up. 😀🍪😀

Just rest, my friend. We will all still be here and be happy to hear from your whenever you feel up to it, but PLEASE don’t push yourself. Listen to your body and give it what it’s calling for — REST! Loves ‘n hugs

Hi David. Thank you. I tire easily, I use strong pain medications, and I and no matter how hard I try there just never seems to be as much time in the day as I want to be online and do stuff, I end up having to stop by 4 or 5 and then going to bed by 6 pm. Oh well, it could be much worse. Hugs. Scottie

I have NOWHERE near the number of probs. you do, however I DO have lower back pain.
If I sit too long, it hurts.
If I stand too long, it hurts.
If I lie down too long, it hurts.
BUT, I can sit for a much longer time in a reclined position. Think recliner-couch.
It’s also easier to get up, or put the recliner in a near-flat setting to relieve butt-pain from sitting so long.
Might help…

Hi Random Troll. Yes I have the same thing. I really don’t have a laptop good enough but sometimes I lean on pillows in the bed with an old laptop to keep going. I am on some strong medications, including 2 kinds of morphine, muscle relaxers, 800 milligrams Ibuprofen. My doctor wants me to go to fentanyl but I am resisting. Also get epidural spine shots and trigger point injections in my back muscles, one or the other about every month. So for me I do what you do, I sit as long as I can, get up move around, come back start again, go lay down, get up start again … repeat. Normally by four or five in the afternoon I hurt so bad my brain won’t work and normally around 6 I go to bed for the day. But seriously the blog and the communities, the people, the news, it all keeps me going, gives me something to do other than just watch mindless videos and wait to die. I just wish I had more time, I want to do so much more online every day. The thought of a semi reclining chair I could squeeze in to my small office room might help, I would have to use it sideways a bit, but … I will give it some thought. Thanks for the advice. Hugs. Scottie
