A rough one...

Last night/this morning at some point I was awakened by one of those machines that takes a flat strip of metal and twists it so that it ends up twirled, like an oil dipstick, except that it was doing it to my body. Then this morning, I had trouble sitting forward in a car -- I was still twisted. Yes, you may take that any way you like to...

My big toe exploded an hour ago, so I did the best I could -- I took a nap. Woke up, the toe is fine. Now if only all of life's problems could be solved with 45 minute naps!

Onward and... um...

It's been a very interesting week-plus. Lots of aches and pains, many of them real. My best friend and I loaded over 5,000 pounds of broken up concrete sidewalk into his trailer, and then unloaded it at the dump. His wife has been out of state for two weeks now, so I have been helping with the kids even more than usual, which does tax the body. And my summer job started two weeks ago, teaching musical theatre dance to 5-17 year olds. So, yeah, I'm beating up a body that doesn't need help hurting.

However -- Getting through it okay. I am so used to hurting that it's really not so different. Now if I could just get one of those clear booths filled with little balls to sleep in so that I could find any position supported...

Really gross one today...

If you want to know what it was, ask -- otherwise I would not want to subject anyone to accidentally reading about it! But it disappeared for most of the day, that's the good news...
