The Pain is Over, but the Malady Lingers On
Well, it is some kind of GI problem tormenting me now. Perhaps ulcers, but since I am not a doctor, I have a pain in the back and chest when I lie down that isn’t helped by the pink stuff. Almost went to Urgent Care, but it settled down this morning, so perhaps I can call the doc or NP in the morning. I’m pouring coffee over the belly fire this morning, and it seems to quench the flames a little. Maybe I can hang some bungees from the ceiling and tie my body to them so I can sleep vertically.
Snookums was up early today, so the bird music was playing as I stumbled down the hall to the studio. Sometimes I get a little peep in greeting from her, but more often I am just ignored as I plop down into my oft repaired $49 Office Depot Executive Chair. I would buy another, but my butt is molded into the shape of this one.
Belinda wants to be my facebook friend this morning. Buxom, and luvs Jesus. She has about six assorted male friends, two pictures of her in a low-cut striped tank top, and she joined FB last week. She’s 26 and lives near the beach. Think I’ll probably ignore this budding friendship. My wimmen wear flannel.
Bits and pieces of the border story on my newsfeeds today, and some odds and end on the Camp Fire fire, but little else of any note. I like getting my news from the newsfeeds rather than let the TV news direct my information. It is likely I still get steered around by their narrative, but I can skip over the uninteresting items, like political peccadillos …
So the first day of the week starts a bit late, but still with coffee and cookies while the day slowly reveal itself.
Good morning!

If you can, put a wedge under the head of your mattress (between mattress and box spring). If you don’t have a wedge, buy a cheap pillow that flattens a bit and see if that will raise your head enough so you are comfortable. Of course, Snookums will need to raise her side, too.
You might try this AFTER seeing your doctor on Monday. Be well, my friend. I’m going to check in on you.

Actually I have a hospital style bed that I can elevate in the bedroom, and a wedge that fits under a bed in my studio. And on really bad nights, I have a recliner that I wedge myself into with a mass of pillows.
But it was under control and I haven’t really needed all that for awhile now. Don’t know why the pain returned, but it returned with a vengeance.

Hope your pain and discomfort was a one time thing…
And if not, maybe your buxom new FB friend can help.
