![]() i try and be nice. ![]() but yeppers..next time his pah-too-tee to the couch! i really should have known better. i could have used the little blow up bed. guess i should blow it up before bedtime, so i don't wake everyone. i have i nice warm moist towel onmy neck right now. then i'll take a nice hot shower, see if that loosens up my neck.

I am with you monkey.
I wake up every morning with a headache at the back of my neck and jut ouchies everywhere in my neck and shoulders. A hot shower always helps. I got a mouth guard for my TMJ but I think it makes my headaches worse. Curious those arm rolls on the couch are the worst thing to sleep on they totally mess up your spinal alignment. ![]() ![]() |

I thought of something else: Some times, when everything hurts, going back to sleep later (taking a long nap) helps
![]() Me? I'm wearing a heart monitor, and have no idea if the monitoring company is receiving the readings at this point (since its tech has failed to keep a scheduled appointment to do the re-setting and verifying the set-up w/a test reading); the vision in my left eye has gone squirrel-y; my PCP is farming me back to my rheumatologist for everything since she believes I need stronger medications (okay, so I got "stuck" on an exam table in her office ![]() ![]() ![]() And, the good news is: One of my sunflower plants has reached 8-feet ![]() ![]()

![]() when will you find out if the heart monitor is being monitored? one of hubby's friends went through that. he had to do all over again. found out his heart if only working at 30% ![]() ![]() sending prayers that the cobra gets kicked in fast! i know that is big worry. lol..do you eat the sunflower seeds or let the bird have them? we used to grow them like that. it was fun. the kids got a kick out of eating some and feeding the birds.

idiot me ended up on the floor last night.
![]() i was trying to think positive about him not snoring. why? haven't a clue. there hasn't been one night in years. i had gone to the fitness center last night. worked out some of the kinks in my neck. did lots of stretches and the weights really slow. it helped. even with sleeping on the floor, my neck isn't so bad. my back is trashed. i am determined to get this extra weight off. i know it is causing me more pain. ![]() oh, a bright note, hubby promised me we are going to get insurance!!
