I did get some sleep today. Hubby saw how messed up I was and took our son to school so I could have a few hours of rest. Thankfully he did that for me, because I was to the point that no matter how much caffeine I consumed, I wouldn't be able to stay awake.

After he left to run the carpool and go to work I went back to bed and basically passed out. I was so far gone that when he stopped back at home to pick something up and check on me, I didn't even hear him. He said I was waaaaay out. Trust me, that NEVER happens. I am such a light sleeper that any little thing wakes me up but not this time. An earthquake wouldn't have woken me today!

After sleeping the sleep of the dead I woke up and ate some lunch (yeah it was lunchtime by then) and did my best to gently stretch my back and shoulder muscles. I had become very stiff after tossing and turning all night and then passing out and sleeping in one position for about 3 hours. I didn't push it much - I didn't dare - and then opted for a super hot shower. My husband had just installed a new massaging shower head last night and it really helped. I turned the water on as hot as I could stand it and turned the massager on and just stood there for like 15 minutes. Yeah a huge waste of water, but I really needed it. It did help ease the muscles somewhat. I think I will do it again before I go to bed.

It's funny that life seems a lot more bearable when you are well rested and even pain can be dealt with a lot easier.

Puurrs to all,
