A BRACEless day (may not have been a good idea...)

Wednesday, June 25, 2014

I woke up this morning around 9.  I'm not sure why - I got up to go pee, and just didn't fall back asleep like I usually do.  It was kinda weird, and I am starting to get tired already.  I am hoping to go to sleep without the help of sleeping aids again tonight, like I did last night, but if I'm not asleep by 10, I will take one sleeping pill, cause that alarm will be going off at 9 in the morning to get us on the road by 10!  We have a full day on schedule for tomorrow!  We might get home by 5, if we're lucky.  And then we're gonna get Corgan tomorrow night, so we'll need to rest up before he gets here!

I got up to get on the pute around 12:30, and I just thought 'you know what - I don't feel like futzing with that brace today' so I didn't.  I stayed up, mostly on the pute, for just over an hour, then it was back to bed for me - I had had enough!  I got back up around 3, same thing, then again around 6:30, making supper in between bouts on the pute.  I made bacon and sausage, which I zapped in the microwave, and macaroni and cheese, which I made the 'real' way - on the stovetop - for our supper.  Ron had been out in the garage all day, with one small break to make himself some lunch, and I called him in to eat supper.  He couldn't believe that it was 7 already!  I told him he was nuts.
I ate my supper while laying in on the bed, as usual, because by the time it was done, between the sitting at the pute and standing at the stove, I was done.

Now I am back up, writing my blog and checking my games one last time before bed.
And that's my day.
I'm not sure if it was a smart idea to go brace-less all day, because my back is now nagging me - a low solid ache that is not easing.  I guess I'll have to ask Dr. Stupido tomorrow if that's really a good idea or not...

I truly must rest up for tomorrow.  I am really looking forward to tomorrow - lunch with friends!  That's going to be a REAL test!
