Last night wasn't a good night of sleep for me or for hubby. He said he woke around 11-ish and after laying there for about 45 minutes, he went to sleep in his recliner - until he came back to bed around 2:30-ish. And I was awake around 11:30-ish.... dozed off and on until about 2:30 when both of my legs started screaming pain at me. Still don't know what is going on with them, but I don't do pain. I mean, I have a high pain tolerance, but still, I have pain. I laid there until about 4:30 and finally came in here. It seems that the pain lessens when I get up; when I'm laying down in the middle of the night, it comes at me full force. During the day I often don't even feel pain in my legs. Selective time schedule? Not sure what is going on. Hoping I can last until I get my physical in September and can talk with Dr. Mark about it - but if I can't, and it gets too severe, I think I will just go to the ER. They have the equipment there to do tests - and Dr. Mark would have to send me 'out'. BTMC it would be, too. I ain't going to these old people hospitals out here! In the meantime, I'm going to 'suck it up' and try to figure out what is causing it. It seems to only flare up in the middle of the night. Isn't it interesting that it happens around the time that the bugs bit me and started the hip pain to start with? I still say it has to do with the bug bites, but no one 'hears' me nor understands. I know, it sounds weird to me as well, but something happened and three antibiotics did not take care of it.
Blah. Coffee didn't taste good this morning. Will be dumping some of it. About time to bring out my cold coffee and start using it again. Well, I guess it is called 'Iced Coffee'. Sam's Club has one called Protein Iced Coffee - it's with the protein drinks. Actually, it is pretty good and a lot less work than some. Just put the powder in ice water and mix it up - and you get protein as well as a cold drink. I still have some from last year. May be bringing it out. In fact, I've found some other things we used to mix in water and drink and have gotten away from it. One of them I have started using. Roadhouse - you know, the one that Chuck Norris 'created'. We also have some Wellness stuff from Dr. Gundy. That stuff is too floral for me. But if it works..... right? I need to use this stuff up. Got a batch of Oblong tea in yesterday as well. I forget what I read about it... something about making me smarter? Good luck with that, right?
Speaking of smarter.... my older brother sent me a math problem but it just looked like he was playing games with me. He said he could only ask one person so asked me. Wrong person. My math ended with General Math in high school. In fun, I sent to my oldest son, and he asked the right questions! What is T and what is ... I didn't have the answers so sent the questions to my brother. He gave me the answers to the questions and I will forward those to my son in a bit. I am not one to send text messages early in the morning. My brother also said he had figured it out, and even showed me how to get the answer. But, if my son wants to complete it for his own fun, it's up to him. I would have never figured it out. Nor do I care to. BUT, my brother is on a journey to learn something new every day, and this is the course he is taking - whatever it is. I wonder if it has to do with AI for he was working on a course for that. Me... sigh... haven't started anything new yet, but sure do want to. I hope to find time that I will focus on something to learn soon.
My youngest son called me yesterday and said he will have all five of his grandchildren today and wanted to invite us over for dinner. Unfortunately, I have training at 5p and group at 6p so we will not be able to. Unless I can get away at 3p to go over, but highly unlikely. I told him we can't tomorrow night either, but maybe Friday night... I will have to check with him and see. Maybe I can run over real quick this afternoon and see them all, and come back and finish up work. Two I don't get to see at all as they live in another city. We don't have to have dinner; but I do want to see the great-grands.
And now, here I am on the work computer. Had to save what I had done in my computer and reopen in here. I don't have too busy of a day today, so maybe I can get away at 'lunchtime' - whenever I decide to take it - and go visit my youngest and the great-grands.
I'm wearing my t-shirt that says "I wear black when I work out. It's like a funeral for my fat". LOL I usually get some chuckles out of it. And yes, I'm searching for something to share this morning. Already getting emails on coverage for other people this morning. I don't mind. Velma has gone to China for her granddaughter's graduation... she won't be back until the 15th. Her coverage is the hardest. Her big boss is Sue's boss... and she is currently on vacation until Monday. BUT one other that she supports - oh my! I've spent most of the past two days working on her stuff - from invoices to moving meetings for her. And I really detest it when people put 'private appointment' on their calendar when they just don't want to be bothered for meetings. If they have as many 'private appointments' as this one does, then they need to find another job cause they aren't working! Just my humble opinion.
Well, I need to get off - just got invoices to submit for another director and my day has started. Maybe I will have something to share tomorrow.
Blessings!
