Oh gods, the pain med just hit me hard....

[KitchenWitch]

I think I am going to have to crawl to the bedroom, walking vertically is not going to work.

1. Please take care of yourself, my dear KW...

3. Oh, I am.

I am not going downstairs for the rest of the night, so I don't take a header down the stairs. Our stairway to the second floor is very steep (weird house design) and due to the settling of the house, the top stair's riser is not 100% horizontal, and I have caught myself on a few occasions hitting it wrong and almost landing on my head at the bottom. (I have never actually fell down this stairway, but have come close).

In a year or so, we will be replacing all the carpeting in the house, and at that time I will have the riser fixed.

2. Share!

Stay upright and keep it between the ditches! :P

4. I am keeping it in my garage for the evening.

I am most definitely impaired.

5. Take care of yourself... and go to bed!

My car is between the snowbanks and it's staying there too. ;)

6. Pain meds? For what?

If I may ask? And is there a really good story behind all of this?

:popcorn:

7. I have arthritis and an artificial hip

My hip has been SCREAMING at me all day (pain level of 8-9 on a scale of 10). I do not take the pain meds often because I hate what they do to me.

8. Ah! Hence, San Diego!

The immortal Lewis Black...

And what's the best job you can have in the world. It's being the weatherperson in San Diego, CA. It doesn't get any better than that. You're on TV for less than a minute. You've got a 6-figure income. They're like 'what's the weather going to be like, Lewis?' 'Nice....back to you.'

Sounds like you and my dad can get together and commiserate in harmony! He's got the same problems. Although I don't think at the same intensity as you do.

At least, he'd better not. He's a union operating engineer, so that would be a bad place to take strong meds. Driving a Caterpiller and a spinning world don't mix well! :-)

Get better! :hug:

9. I will

I do have chronic pain, but it does not flare up like this more than a couple of days a month.

I have been running around the past two days, so, it is likely that my pain is from overdoing things a bit.

I read your other thread, BTW, and your situation makes me feel sad. I wish I do something to make it better.

10. I am crawling to bed now.

Can't walk upright.

Tomorrow is a new day.

11. G'night, sweetie....

Time for me to toddle too....:hug:

12. Hope tomorrow is a much better day.
