This sucks!

Ok.. day 2. I woke up w/ the cat giving me the same darn toy that caused the problem to start with. I couldn't throw it far.. but it did make it off the bed.

I managed to get up.. function... kinda.. but try brushing your hair w/out lifting your arms. It ain't easy. Brushing my teeth was bad enough.

Shower helped..hot water.. but just couldn't wash my hair.. just couldn't handle the pain..

But. at least i felt a bit better.

Thank goodness for sandwiches... and microwaves.

I took a nap this afternoon.. (I'm on muscle relaxers & pain pills, & ibuprophen..) I kinda nap off and on... Woke up to the cat snuggling.

She got her can of food... It took a bit opening the lid... but.. I managed.. She doesn't love that flavor.. but we're at the bottom of the stack.. and its that or just dry. Did I mention this cat is spoiled?

I'm rapidly growing tired of the tv. Tired of typing so dang slow, and tired of not communicating w/ people. I'm use to talking all day... (I work in a call center) So... silence is wonderful... for a day or so... but now... gezzzz.. I've gotten text messges... but everyone isn't wanting to wake me so they just text.. ( I still wake up to that message notification)

Hopefully tomorrow I can wash my hair and at least comb it.

I bribed my next door neighbor to taking out my trash... I owe him some brownies when I'm better.

thanks for stopping by.. take care, & don't forget to say hi...

Hi Snowbear:

Don't know what's up with not being to lift your arms,  however hope it wasn't spine surgery.

Take care

See previous posts... I fell and strained all the muscles in my forearms, shoulders & lower back... all due to a stupid cat toy! thanks for the warm thoughts....

First read of your title, and I thought you were talking about your arm pit hair.

Sorry, I have a warped sense of humor.  Hopefully you can raise the arms tomorrow.
