Hardtack
I’m sitting here and staring at my right foot. It’s a nice foot… beautiful even. Unfortunately, it’s attached to a malfunctioning ankle. Days of constantly compensating for my left knee with my right leg resulted in this. Both of my ankles are unstable anyway. Have been for years. The frustration I felt today though… while Continue reading

I Have NO Regrets
This morning, I struggled to both move and bend my knee. Even now, so late at night, my left knee is protesting too much movement. The pile of clean clothes that need to be put in the closet is about two feet high and well over five feet long. I’m hopeful that in the AM, Continue reading

Flailing Falls
Got as much done today as we could. Now, my entire bed is covered with clothing. I just emptied my closet, tossed a lot of stuff I would never wear and reset where my t-shirts will go. My left knee has been voicing complaint for the last four hours and is swollen twice its size. Continue reading

I Tried Uploading Using A Random Gen…
My hip is still trying to stage its own revolt. So let’s get a bit of clarity. I had two appointments for vastly different doctors yesterday. Psychiatry and PT. On the way to and from the first, I started having some issues with one of my hips. At the second, I was given exercises after Continue reading

Thrills & Spills
Strangely enough this blog post is written right after the previous one. I’ve been riding the edge of updating on time at all lately, so this is a pre-write in case I can’t manage anything later today. Time: 12:01AM. I’m drinking my water, like I’m supposed to, but I need to sit down and get Continue reading

If You Asked Me To
2:31AM Charisma in all its glory is a wholly irregular animal in and of itself. How do we know who is truly charismatic? Are they being honest or are they being a liar? And now that we’re on the topic of charisma and charms… I have it. In spades. Not a boast. Not a humble Continue reading

Forgotten Dreams
It’s sad. I had something really clever that I wanted to add to my blog, but did not write it down. I was very sure I’d remember. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen. There’s lots of stuff that I go through and deal with throughout the day. My moods run the gamut. I did have a very Continue reading

Bug Party
Tomorrow, I’m hoping that I’ll feel better. Gradually, I’ve been recovering from who-knows-what. I’m confused as to how to use the test thing that I have. A lot of us were given free Covid tests, but with expiration dates. My friend told me they should be good as long as its within two months, but Continue reading

Uncleared Minds
Now that I understand why I’m so drawn and weary, I’m still upset at how often I have to stop to just sleep. I don’t want to, but unfortunately my body has other plans. Does that sound like I’m lazy? I have a widespread chronic condition that makes it nearly impossible to work at 100%, Continue reading

Closed Shades
Pain is a large part of my existence. Today it was worse. I’m not exactly sure what I dreamed of, but I felt as if my left shoulder had been stomped on overnight… for hours. When I felt this on the right side, I wanted to cry because the cramping in my ribs coincided with Continue reading
