Slept last night and it was my second time taking Aleve.  I was still sound asleep after 9 am when the phone rang!  No telling how long I would have slept if it hadn't rung! I felt like I woke up from a deep sleep with a damp cheek! LOL! But the funny thing is I still don't feel like a got much rest! So I will keep taking the Aleve for now!

And anyway it did get rid of almost all the pain I have been sucking up!

Went to work with my hubby and it was raining hard for a bit and I got alittle wet.  Ok so this is boring but again I am still tired and only when I sign off my brain comes up with the witty stuff! ANd by then I am busy , dont feel like it or PC is freezing up and it is too much trouble !

I pray all my friends have a happy, safe and painless day!

Well I'm in very little pain now cause I caved in and took Aleve or should I say I took the generic-Naproxin.  I have a problem with taking any meds I can stand to live without! They are all bad for you if you take them for too long! Even the OTC ones! Maybe I read the pill book and watch too much TV! LOL! Too late now! LOL!

So even though I was in very little pain, I still didn't sleep much better! It Sucks to be awake and tired in the middle of the night and don't want to disturb the hubby by getting up and leaving the room! Then he starts wondering what's what and am I ok and that he can't sleep if I'm not in the bed where he can hear me breath or reach over and touch me!  Sooo I stay and pretend to sleep. But atleast I did get some rest last night! Hope to sleep more tonight! 

Oh I forgot to mention that this was the first time I've taken Naproxen because I was afraid to take it after my hubby said it didn't work for his pain and of course i read that it could upset the stomach so need to take with food. You might think I'm being silly, but I don't like having an upset stomach! One time I pulled a muscle, because I got sick to my stomach! That sucks! Isn't it bad enough to be sick?  ANd as I have said before, I also find I am allergic to more meds too!   It's like playing Russian Roulet when I take a new med!  I am so glad I dont have any major pain or ailment yet!  Anyway , I am feeling much better!  Pray that all my friends here at DS are feeling good to! 

Went to bed at around the same time I always do. But even though I was very tired I couldn't stay asleep for long and began tossing and turning , but no matter what position I was in it just got to be more imposible! Finally I got up for good! Hopefully I don't have a repeat episode tonight! Not that it hasn't happened before, but I sure wish I knew why! And darned if the arthritis didn't start giving more trouble. Everytime I would grab for something like picking up my purse sharp pains in my finger joints would make me almost drop it! Well that just sucks! Maybe I should go back to smaller purse with less stuff. That or figure a way to pick it up without contact to joints! What ever, just another minor irritant to add to my pathetic little problems! I'm certainly not going to crawl under a rock, that would be boring!

May the coming week be a good one for all!  : )
