My husband came home in a better mood, and was much calmer yesterday (thank God). He said he appealed to his boss about all the driving, and asked if there was anything he could do. He didn't really push the issue with him, and didn't really get a response. I hope he starts to see enough change to make his job more tolerable.

He has been driving 3 or more hours a day, whether it's to one or more jobs, and it seems like he's been the only one stuck doing it day in and day out. His boss sends him to ridiculously far away places, even though sometimes there are guys who live much closer, and/or his boss does not plan well and sends him to jobs that are very far apart from one another, even though another guy may be available close to the second job. Apparently his boss is inept, and unable to handle the stress of his position well.

I told him I had been looking for jobs yesterday, and he asked me not to. I said I was just trying to help, and if he could think of a way I could, to let me know.


The Pats played last night, and my husband was able to stay up until halftime. He only had a few beers, so he took Benadryl again. I was up until after 11 watching the game, and it seemed like he was fast asleep by the time I got to bed, but I didn't get the opportunity to ask him how he slept this morning because I didn't wake up until 7am!
I enjoyed watching the game. Our third string quarterback led the team to a 27-0 shut out win over the Texans… amazing. I'm so happy the two back up quarterbacks won in their first NFL starts. It must be like dreams come true for them. Plus, I don't mind my team winning


I have chronic hip and knee pain from my gait disorder, and have a cyst in the right hip where I've been having the trouble. I get flare ups, and have been to PT for related issues a couple of times in the past.
It feels much better this morning. I think the rest and the heating pad helped.

The plan is for more rest today.
