OK, people may be getting tired of doing these posts and I am sorry for that. I got up at 4 am and that was after being awakened by Tupac smacking my hand repeatedly. Ron reminded me when I cry out or growl in my sleep Tupac gets upset. I have felt tired all day. I forced myself to eat a brunch of three thick bacon strips cooked extra crispy, two sausages, three toasts, and four fried eggs. But that was all I ate all day. I have no hunger. Plus it is early and I have cued up so much to post. But I am struggling to stay awake and function to do it. Taking the advice of so many here I am going to go to bed a bit early. I hope being as tired as I am, I can sleep. But as many of you keep telling me the news will wait and I am not the only news source. Tupac has already gone to bed and I need to join him. Hugs
It is only 6:15 and I worn out

you post what you need to post, okay. No apologies necessary. That is, by the way, a very impressive ‘brunch”–one thing about eggs, at least for me, they can kill any hunger I might have, for some reason.
Take care of yourself, we’re not going anywhere, okay…

Thank you Judy. Maybe the eggs were what made me not hungry. I have that happen where I go an entire day with out eating. Ron will in the afternoon will start bothering me as to what I want for supper. Hugs

Scottie, do what you need to do, not what you think we might want. As Judy has already said, we’re not going anywhere, okay…

Hi Barry. Thank you. But I get so frustrated that I get so tired and worn out so easily. I just had another MRI on my lower back that found the damage had gotten much worse with more areas being labeled as severe. It is so frustrating because in the morning I will set up a bunch of things I want to post and I get too tired or sore to post them before I go to bed. I have windows with dozens of open tabs each of news reports I would like to post. Yet I am lucky if I get three done. Best wishes.

I appreciate the frustration of not being able to do those things you want to especially if you’ve sort of scheduled them into your day. In my case it’s migraines that are frustrating. They affect cognition, executive functioning, vision and motor skills. It’s a major reason why I don’t blog daily. Trying to do so would be too exhausting, so just like everything else I do, I fit it in where I can. I’ve learnt to accept it most of the time, but yes, sometimes I do want to scream out “It’s not fair! Why can’t I just do things like everyone else?” Still, I view life as an adventure even though it seems to be more of an obstacle course these days than a stroll in the park.

Thank you Barry. What you wrote reminds me that other people also suffer from frustration at not being able to post, and I am really sorry you suffer from migraines. My understanding is there is little science on how to help a person who sufferes from them. At least I can take more pills or go to bed and ease the pain. My understanding is that it is not possible for people who suffer like you. MY sympathies. Best wishes.

Suggestion: Set yourself a “must do” limit, of just so many things to do each day. And stick to it. If you can focus on the most important things (maybe two or three) and give it all you got,..I’ve had to give stuff up too, and it’s annoying to think you can’t do what you used to do.

I hope you slept well. I just had a bout of insomnia so I fully know the feeling. Just take good care of yourself. That is all that counts!

Hi Bee. Isn’t it frustrating to lie there tossing and turning struggling to fall asleep? I do that and we have a large lighted clock that I keep checking. Time seems to slow way down when you’re struggling to sleep. For me when I do sleep I get up frequently to urinate. Plus the cat always wants to eat between 2 and 3:30 am. But I have been going to bed by 7 or 8 and getting up between 4 and 5 am. but last night I just ran out of energy early. Hugs

Oh, yes. We have an old greyhound who often needs a wee at night which doesn’t help. I have started to do a breathing exercise: i focus on breathing think I breathe in on in breathing and I breathe out when breathing out. That helps often but not always. I hope you sleep better tonight

Hi Bee/ Ron when I met him rescued Greyhounds. Thank you for your generosity to such gentle and abused creatures. Have you thought of a pee pad for the greyhound? Hugs

We have but she is very particular and we currently live in just one room. There is no more space so we would have to get up anyway. It doesn’t happen often so we can live with it. Thanks for the idea 🤗
