Re: Sleeping too much
Winter is back a little, I don't mind. 9° 9am today
// Made it to church (first time in weeks), good msg (1Jn1), had x2 compliments (wow), and blackdog social anxiety was nowhere to be seen.
// Found a nasty letter under my windscreen wiper from the 'x' today. First in years, only read a couple of phrases & tossed it. Think he was having a 'dummy spit' over a letter i readdressed to his correvt address a month or so ago. Couldn't help myself, I put the word liar in brackets after his name on the envelope. Oops. Yes, i know, but hey - one word of truth. Thinks he's gonna take me to court for defamation, & i'll lose my house to him. Hmm, so tired of his threats. Hopefully that will be the end of it. He's just trying to scare me again. Pitty, because our son's Grad monday went really well and it could have been used to set a new tone for us. Hope it doesn't play on my mind.
// Went to dr today. She wants an x-ray as i'm the age for compression fractures in the thoracic vertebra now, especially after overdoing it like i did Tuesday in the yard.

Re: Sleeping too much
Make sure you have that xray. Compression fractures are incredibly painful. I had three vertebrae collspse in 2 weeks and it really was extremely painful and debilitating.
I'm so hoping that you don't have this problem. Fingers crossed 💕

Re: Sleeping too much
It was extremely painful for 4 months and I've had chronic pain in the thoracic spine ever since. They all happened as a result of normal everyday movements. The first was bending over to pick up a piece of the newspaper, the second was turning my head and upper body to check before I changed lanes and the third was from picking up a peg that had fallen on the grass.

Re: Sleeping too much
Something funny, at the Dr yesterday with this neck, I also told her I felt fuzzy in the head & the world's a bit blury. She smiled & said "I think that could be the ### (over the counter strong analgesic) as its an opiate" She said. As I left I had a private chuckle - did she just tell me I'm 'high'? hahaha! Just my humour.

Re: Sleeping too much
Hiya @Former-Member @Former-Member
I had a giggle at that thought too ... high on painkillers .... ❣
My Dad gets high on anaesthetic, which is really funny ... he talks his head off for a week after an op.
Got D3 to school eventually this morning - by 12:00 - if you can call that morning ....
She stayed working in the counsellor's office all day after that. She is on an alternative pathway and gas to pass Certain IV certificates to pass Year 12 now .... so her work this term is going to be prioritising whatever is gonna get her there.
No walking for me today .... just bouncing through the basic commitments. Got to go pick D3 up from school now, but be back sometime this arvo when WH has set out on his evening jog, and is not looking over my shoulder with the thought of delegating tasks to me to support his regimen ... part of my self-preservation.

Re: Sleeping too much
@Faith-and-Hope, hmm, D3 sure sounds like a handful. Just ran out of steam by the sound of it poor dear. One day at a time there hey... Glad you've found ways to dodge WH crap sometimes, he's a but g boy. You have enough to do with meals & taxi etc Keep on swimming 🙂
I enjoyed bible study gp, then copied & mailed a friend a gift & borrowed DVD's from library (eireal broken). Got real hungry then realised I hadn't had lunch so indulged in yummy fastening pie - my tea.
Bit nervous since my x left that nasty note on my car, that he'd been in my yard. And this am the side gate was open (someone had been because I'm careful with that re the dog). Hope he doesn't start up his crap against, just when I started to think I have nothing to fear anymore he starts up with his threats. Wish I could sell up and move away.
Well, best go shower, get warm, might check in later, have a good evening all.
