Ramblings 3
Nothing new, same issues . I miss the people here. I have been really struggling the last few months. I have been really trying and it seems like I am going back instead of forward.
@Iamwhoiamwhoami what does periodically mean!??
@Tinywhisper11 sorry, I'm not the cleverest of people ❤
Once in awhile. I do but not often.❤️

@Iamwhoiamwhoami oh ok, don't worry I eat enough for both of us😁 my carer had to call a ambulance😕 I think one of the residents have had a accident🙁 I really hope she's ok. I'm gonna go for a while ❤ I'll be back soon ❤ hugs you tightly ❤I love you ❤❤
how are your thoughts today??
I just noticed that I have the sounds of thousands of insects in my ears. Tinnitus??? Lovely, another fun thing.
@Iamwhoiamwhoami insects?? Tinnitus?? I don't know what that means, *pulls worried face*
I'm gonna be on and off here, so if I take ages to reply that's why ❤
@Tinywhisper11
Something to do with the eardrums, I don’t know much about it other then it can be extremely annoying as it is now.
❤️no worries, hugs ❤️
@Iamwhoiamwhoami is it like a infection?? Do you need meds?
The noise in both ears seems to be gone .
@Iamwhoiamwhoami ok that's good news ❤ but keep an eye on it ❤
I think I might attempt to get the strength to get up and at least sit under the shower for a few minutes.
It really is a pain to try and crawl back under an old comforter that all the fill material has shifted into all the wrong places while I am still plenty damp from the shower. The thing almost sticks to my skin and I am in too much pain to straighten out.
A little ringing in my right ear . Whenever I nap again maybe it’ll finally disappear or at least drop to a level I can’t hear.
I actually have new sheets and comforters packed away. I’m thinking of possibly putting them on the bed right before I go in to the hospital for surgery.
That might depend on my strength. My arm strength is really weak, I knew that they were slowly getting weaker since this ordeal escalated a few ago. But the last couple of days, especially today they seem to be a lot weaker rather quickly. I did do something stupid to verify and maybe it proved me right or wrong. It was a 40 pack of 16.9 oz water bottles. It took everything I could muster to pick it up then I used the rollater walker seat to set it on and moved it slowly and painfully from the front door to the back room . Then I nearly dropped it because my legs were saying enough is enough. I set it down and literally crawled to the bed and pulled myself up and in. That was sometime earlier today. Maybe that contributed to the noise in my eardrums.
I managed a little more than just sitting under the water, I managed to wash my hair and the basics .
I should be proud of myself for the little things. But I continue to play the self blame game. If I hadn’t been so stubborn headed when the back and leg pain began, I wouldn’t be where I am now. But my stubbornness in regards to pain usually involves ignore it block it out and continue what needs to be done.
Stubbornness I think must be one of the ancient seeds that grew in the base roots of my early days. That trait I think has prevented me from being me.
Ok, I think I need to try and soak my disgusting feet while the skin has a little moisture left in them. I am guessing that I will have to try to do that in the wheelchair, that hurts the least for sitting in.
I got the hot water into the foot massager thingy. This will be the first time I have used it . I think I bought it a few years ago, planning to use it but never did. Anyway I need to let the water cool down for a bit it’s a little too hot for my wimpy footsies.
Hopefully I don’t fall asleep before I get to use it…
@Iamwhoiamwhoami 🙁my poor baby😥 your falling apart🙁 well done for having a shower ❤ and bringing those bottles in, and any other shopping you brought in, you should be very proud of yourself, I am proud of you ❤ it may seem not alot, but it's practically too much when your in pain🙁the spine effects all body parts and muscles eventually🙁 I really hope they rush this surgery through. I bet your absolutely exhausted. Don't try sit up soaking your feet for too long, you've done quite enough today ❤ gives you gentle hugs ❤
@Tinywhisper11
I am going to try to make it through the maximum suggested time for running that massager soaking thingy. Which is a half hour. So about 25 minutes to give a few to shut it off.
I have been falling apart most of my life , it is just that now the frame supporting it is ancient and decrepit as well so it’s falling apart in bigger pieces. ❤️❤️
❤️Embracing you in a loving hug ❤️
Tiny bubbles are blowing around my feet and I can barely feel them. I feel the heat but barely the massaging tiny bubbles. Must be the nerve medication.
