Day 3,064: Snooze-o

Day 3,064: Snooze-o

Neck was rough today. Sigh. It’s a lesson in patience. I had a nice therapy session tonight (therapist was out of town yesterday for our normal meeting time), and it was perfectly timed. This whole neck thing was 100% brought on by stress. Which means…reducing stress...

Day 3,063: An Up

Day 3,063: An Up

An up day with the next today. I…hesitate to say it, because it’s been so up and down to this point…but I might have turned a corner with it today. That deep down sharp pain was ever so slightly better today. The muscle pain still came and went. We did an audition for...

Day 3,062: Roller Coaster

Day 3,062: Roller Coaster

The neck injury is a roller coaster. I woke up feeling MUCH better this morning. The drugs were magic. I was turning a corner, and this thing was going to be in the rear view very soon. But…then the day wore on. I could feel almost immediately after getting out of bed...

Day 3,061: Flare Up

Day 3,061: Flare Up

Oof. Neck flared up BIG time today. Probably because I sat and worked for too long yesterday. Uuuggghhh. Balancing that has been really hard this past week. Flare up was bad enough that I saw a doctor about it. “Saw” as in it was a telehealth visit on the phone. He...

Day 3,060: I need a

Day 3,060: I need a

Neck is…slowly, ever so slllooowwwllyyy getting better. The nerve pinch itself is doing much better. So the slicing, stabbing pain isn’t there. What’s set in, now, is tight-ass neck muscles. Have to slowly coax those to calm the fuck down, and then we’re golden. But,...

Day 3,059: Discolored

Day 3,059: Discolored

Neck is…better. Still a long looonnggg way from all the way back. Blerg. I worked today. Had to. Got in some rest time, too. That’s what I’m going to have to do for like the next week, I think. Uuuugggghhhh. Josh, if you’re reading this, we have to push Film School...

Day 3,058: Still Broke

Day 3,058: Still Broke

Neck is still broke…but healing. Thank lord. It was really bad last night. Suuuuuper painful. I could hardly move. Took me FOREVER to fall asleep laying on my back… But I think it worked. As did basically lying in bed all day today. It feels better tonight. Bro gave...

Day 3,057: Effed Up Neck

Day 3,057: Effed Up Neck

So…I’ve hurt my neck. Never tweaked it this bad before. It’s fuuuucked up. Hurts to even lean forward. I was able to sit and work today, watch some TV (Dubs won), but that is about it. It’s worse than it was yesterday, which is when it really started. Ugh. I was...

Days 3,056: Low Spoons

Days 3,056: Low Spoons

Comparisonitis. It’s a motherfucker. I am not immune. I try my best to manage it, but it’s always there. We were listening to the podcast “Dead Eyes” last night in our drive to and from the Bu, and the host mentioned a quote…can’t remember who from…but about how as...

Day 3,055: Go Little Bro Go Little Bro Go!

Day 3,055: Go Little Bro Go Little Bro Go!

We Bare Bears. Such a good show. Good day today. Didn’t get much done on the project, which I was hoping for, but I did get another item up on the old eBay. I did make, for the first time in my life, tomato soup from scratch, and Liz and I did go out on a date...
