Ah Pain

Gator woke me at 2a and I wasn’t pleased about it.  I fed her and then sat to watch some TV.  She figured out my secret indirectly.  I hear her yowling at the top of the steps to the basement (just outside my bedroom door), I thought she wanted in my room.  I think she wanted attention and didn’t want to be alone but it worked out in her favor.  Since I thought she wanted in I opened the door to my room.  When I didn’t see her I looked and saw her by the steps.  I talked to her and that caught her off guard but she eagerly came into my room.  We sat together and watched TV until I got sleepy again and then I went back to bed. 

I just started to drift off and she stands up in her bed and starts crying.  I kicked her out.  Powered up the White Noise and out I was.  When I woke up a few hours later I had a hell of a pain in my neck/shoulder.  I went back to sleep for a bit but when I woke again the pain was still there.  Looks like my Knot moved in a direction other than out.  Now that I am up it’s semi-tolerable.  I had thought about laying in bed all day but it sounds both good and bad to me. 

I have pressed on with my day, not exactly in a mood for BS today but thus far all is well.  Meetings start up this afternoon and run for a couple hours.  Then there is a lull and a late afternoon meeting, which I don’t look forward to.  The only real good news about today is that it’s my Thursday.  That is kind of part of the reason why I am trying to push through the pain. 

The dentist called and I confirmed my appointment for tomorrow.  Instead of going to lunch tomorrow I will be going to the dentist.  Not exactly ideal but I don’t have to use my time and don’t need to move fast as I will have others watching for me while I am away.  Then just finish up the day tomorrow and I am done for 2 days.  Back to on-call on Saturday & Sunday. 

I’ve got my Thursday pretty well planned out at least mentally.  Who knows if it will all come together.  No real plans for Friday thus far and no plans for the weekend.  I am going to try to fit the gutter cleaning in as well as the house wash project.  That all kind of depends on how I feel both mentally & physically.  I will probably take a day and lounge though just because there is something that feels good about being lazy, at least for 1 day and doing whatever it is that I want. 

Da boss man is back today, not looking forward to dealing with him but it’s all in a days work.  Hope your having a great Tuesday!
