ALT TEXT – DAY 10
0, (yep, another zero day)
Woke up from a complete crap of a night of non-sleep. Tossing and turning in pain all night. The morning – the day- no better. Pain! So no walking today and that’s okay.
My truck is in the shop – they had to call in a detailer to clean the engine. The pack rat had stuffed dog turds and plant material everywhere. They found other damage and will hopefully finish tomorrow.
It turned into a slow day of arting and feeling miserable, but Wednesdays always are.
ONE DAY AT A TIME!
There is a gray banner across the page with a bat lingering over the top right side, and two yellow lightning bolts coming out of the bottom. The banner says Day 10 PAIN
Two text boxes under the lightning bolts say: Massive storms all night dumped over 2″ of rain. 3/3 nights getting into bed without assistance, yay!
ALT TEXT – DAY 11
Late start today with residual pain and lethargy. Kept waking up due to all the storms and the cat snoring. Got busy doing administrata and staring out the window at the clear blue sky. While staring out the window we spotted a new ‘lifer’ bird – Ladder-backed Woodpecker – pecking at the decaying sunflower stalks. Yay new bird – a beautiful female of pecking fluff.
The truck is being repaired, and hopefully KP can go get it tomorrow. She’s planning on picking us up some Whoo’s Donuts while she is in Santa Fe. I am ready! Doughnuts yum!
Had my weekly art date with Rebecca. They are adopting a lab/dane puppy from a rescue in Texas – so lots of puppy prep happening. I got caught up on this project, of course now i’m way behind in the journal.
We watched the latest South Park + Matlock after dinner and I finished ‘Slow Horses’. The book and the TV show are nearly identical. Had to look up the 67 meme from South Park cause I refuse to TikTok. Up next in reading is ‘The Talisman’ by King and Straub.
It was another 0 day!
I don’t know why I’ve been in more pain lately. Thankfully have a Dr. appt next week where I can hopefully discuss. The CBD gummies are at least helping with sleep. Sleep and regular meals help me feel stronger. Feeling stronger helps me mentally too. Being able to get myself into bed without a boost is super motivating! Go woman go!
4/4 Still going strong on no assist nights. Maybe need to set a 30 day goal?

ALT-TEXT – DAY 12
Day 12 Laundry
A relatively quiet day overall. Chores, reading, TV watching – Great British Baking Show with pizza for dinner. Yay Friyay!
Pizza Night
Ordered 2 zas from Pizaños. A Mayor (the best) and a Rio Grande – the bell pepper (because they are evil) and + green chile. Always get 2 so we have enough dinner for 2 nights.

Feel like i’m back sliding a bit. But maybe not. 5/5 for no bed assist nights. Momentum, regularity is all that is needed…
