I was in bed for hours but I have yet to get any sleep. I hate it. I want to be the person who is up no later than 8AM and ready to face the day. I am having problems getting to sleep. Big problems. It's typically hours of flipping and flopping from the left side to the right side, with brief periods flat on my back, and, still, sleep does not come. And almost every morning, I find myself awake at sunrise. Yes, it's a beautiful time of day, but it tarnishes rather quickly when you haven't been to sleep yet at sunrise.
To add to the rough start of my day, I'm hurting. My left knee is a real booger with the right knee close behind. And, the right wrist is so painful at times as to be undependable. I was trying to empty the dishwasher, and feeling concerned as to whether I'd be able to hang onto those dishes that need to go into the cupboard. I just couldn't count on my grip. This does not bode well for the day. I have finally given in and taken a couple of ibuprofen. I knew if I didn't, I'd likely just sit in this chair all day when I really have a lot to do. I hope my liver knows I tried hard not to reach for that bottle of NSAIDs.
