So, there was another co-conspirator under the bed yesterday: a baggie of wrapped chockies. After I'd done a lot of work, I rewarded myself with a Turtle. Sadly, it was the last one.
This morning, I awoke to no pain around 7 and with a tiny bit of decent sight. So, I quickly cued up last night's Picard (an extended epi again - so I'm not complaining) and was delighted to see two more Next Gen alumni. No spoilers, but … awww.
After that reprieve, I got back into … uh … back-breaking work. Moved stuff around in the bathroom and steam-cleaned it. That was a lot to do. Then I got to drag myself into a hot shower. Unfortunately, the muscles weren't having any of it. Sigh. So I've been suffering for the rest of the day.
Today's distraction was reading and commenting on Savage Love. I also (finally) sent my retirement notice about dropping out of the Anointers' & Communion Servers' Ministry after 25 years. In the evening, I watched my usual judge and game shows, as well as MacGyver - even though my eyes were mostly closed, so I missed the presumably shocking ending. Sigh. I'll have to rewatch.
Right now, I'm just hanging on until midnight when I can take my bedtime pills and hope for decent sleep. I still have a few things to clean tomorrow morning before Brian arrives around 1. At least I've managed to remove one task from his Herculean list: I figured out how to move from tab to tab (and we all know how much I love multiple tabs) in I.E. Yay me!
