Good luck with the paperwork. On a side note, I found my mother's power of attorney while cleaning out some boxes.
Time to forcibly relocate her. I hear the Black Hills are nice.

In bed in pain
My shoulder & back took me out. Couldn’t stay upright for more than an hour. Never experienced anything like this.
Was on the phone and online with big Kaiser for maybe 2 hours today. Not helpful. Waiting on yet another call back.
Might just have to go the the er tomorrow.

Man, what a difference a day makes.
Yesterday I was writhing in pain in bed. Today I'm drugged up on Norco in bed but feeling no pain. To quote one of DM's fav KB lines 'ain't drugs great?!'
Sometimes I ponder a lazy life on drugs... just lying about watching TV and eating unhealthy snacks covered in powdered cheese. Last week's brutal health fail has me contemplating if living life at a higher standard really makes me that much happier, or healthier. When things like this happen to me, there's a little voice in the back of my head that says 'here's where you jump off the train - drink all the booze and eat all the drugs - tune out now.'
Alas...back to work.

Takes $ to slack. Practice *judicious* slacking.
RE: 4:20 - King Bob - 07-02-2022
Think back to the Subgenius video for tips on Slack
And I can't remember saying that - I must have been on drugs.
RE: 4:20 - Drunk Monk - 07-05-2022
Pondering this week and hoping the pain stops….
RE: 4:20 - Greg - 07-05-2022
There is only one way the pain stops completely and I'm not there yet.
Yes, it's dark.
RE: 4:20 - Drunk Monk - 07-06-2022
The pain woke me up. This is bad because it’s been alleviated by lying down
RE: 4:20 - Greg - 07-06-2022
There is a perfect angle for my knee to bend so I have the least amount of discomfort. I have yet to find it.
RE: 4:20 - Drunk Monk - 07-09-2022
I was like that last night with my shoulder
But back on topic - to the dog park!
RE: 4:20 - Drunk Monk - 07-11-2022
Mustering momentum for the dog park…
RE: 4:20 - Drunk Monk - 07-13-2022
My pain has been a bit more manageable today. I've been mindful, like my chiro doc has said. I've been functional, not bent over in agony. But it's still very present.
Dog park bound next.
RE: 4:20 - Drunk Monk - 07-16-2022
Kung Fu didn’t go well. I got warmed up and felt strong and supple but then was struck with a wave of nausea likely from the norco hitting hard and had to sit for a while, long enough to cool down. I ran through my empty hand form regimen all at Tai chi speed, managed to recite tiger hooks and cane, but then left without doing my cool down. Got home, took an epsom salt bath and a nap, but now I feel pretty sore - pinched nerve sore. Been looking at sdcc stuff online and am pondering if I’m going to be well enough to manage it.
Off to the dog park now. I ate, took my meds and massaged in some white flower oil. Hope that’s enough. Yuki has been so patient with me. I think he knows something is wrong but doesn’t understand it.
RE: 4:20 - Drunk Monk - 07-17-2022
Joined Stacy for a yoga class. That went well. Been working all day. Now to wash some dishes and then off to the dog park. Then dinner with Steph before she heads on her vision quest of healing. Then home for a bit more work and laundry folding...
RE: 4:20 - Drunk Monk - 07-20-2022
Night 1 of nortriptyline. This is supposed to make me drowsy but it was a struggle to get to sleep and I just popped awake because I had to pee. I’m totally cottonmouthed and kinda hungry. Nerve pain is less. Mood is not elevated although I had some tingly sensations which might’ve been me just projecting hopefully.
But it’s just 1 dose and I can bump it by 1 more each week until I’m up to 5 if need be. It’s one of those kinda drugs.
