I came home from my trip to the airport this morning and lay back down. But i tried for 2 hours and probably slept for about 15 minutes. Now that it is afternoon and i really need to do a few errands, i am so tired, i bet i could fall asleep right now. But no meds or food in the house so i must go.
yesterday was great at the beach. Sure beat being here in 100 degree temps. We saw a few groups of dolphins frolicking , always fun and Steffi really enjoyed it. My son was a good sport for coming, then to an outlet mall on the way home. He is not a beach or mall person , but did a really good job of making the day enjoyable for all of us.

My back started giving out as I was taking an inferior drug for pain. Percocet definitely works best for me. My pain management doc gives me percocet and dilaudid. I had plenty left at the end of this month (a good sign) but i got a call that she had to fly out of the country for a death in the family. I needed to reschedule. I was told if i needed any meds they would transfer me to a medical assistant which i did. He told me oh those are prescriptions!! No kidding, he had no way of getting them for me ! I know my spine doc will take care of me if i need him to, and i will just really conserve.

I am going to wait for it to cool off a bit today to go for a walk, if i am still awake.
