Sore

My little fall or slip event on Sunday really set me back.  I was horribly sore on Monday when I woke up.  I kind of expected something but didn’t expect that it would keep me off my feet.  I had breakfast and was getting ready to start my day and that is when the pain began.  I gave it some thought and opted to skip work for the day.  I didn’t take anything for it but climbed back into bed and magically I slept away 1/2 of the day.  I spent the other 1/2 trying to stay awake.  I kind of figured that I would take today off but wasn’t 100% sure.  Gator did her thing over night and kept me up so early this morning I sent a message saying I would be out for the day. 

The good news is that I missed a lot of BS meetings.  The bad news is I have a small mountain of shit stacked up for me to sift through and another meeting to attend tomorrow.  I said that I thought I’d be back on Wednesday so unless there is something unforeseen that happens, I plan to go back tomorrow.  By go back I mean work from home.  I did think about physically going in as that would give me greater power to concentrate but I’d like to stick close to my girl. 

We have both done our fair share of sleeping today.  I had plans to get moving later this afternoon and get to the post office and bank but that never happened.  The bank and post office will still be there on the weekend, it just means I have to get up a little early on Saturday to make it to the bank, not a big deal. 

I am still a little sore and have developed some minor bruises.  My back does hurt but I run my massager over it for as long as I can tolerate and then rest.  I’ve been on Ibuprofen and Tylenol but honestly this pain is minor compared to some other events in my life.  It actually hurt worse when I fell off the ladder in the front yard twice a couple years back. 

Gator seems a little happier because I am not playing with my phone and yesterday I didn’t bother to come to the basement at all.  I am kind of at odds with what I am going to have for supper, but I can tell you I won’t starve.  She is going through food at a rapid pace and back to sleeping by the fountain.  I have plans to give her fluids tonight, not sure how well that will work.  I have to get down on the floor and twist myself up like a pretzel to get to her.  It’s mildly difficult when I am not sore so it will be a bit of a challenge tonight. 

Looking some what forward to getting back to a routine and cleaning up the pile that is waiting for me at work.  It’s never fun to play catch up but I will be doing the same thing the week after next as I have a couple days off towards the end of next week.  2 weeks of working 3 day work weeks.  This week of course unplanned and next week planned but just going to the doctor and lounging.  Nothing major in the works. 

I am going to do some surfing and then back up to be with Gator and figure out what is for supper.  Hope your all doing well.
