Bad day. Eggs are apparently a no no again. Drug around all day. Now the herniated disc and shouldrs and aarms and hands and the neuropathy in feet and everything else have conspired to keep me from sleep.
Took sleeping pill hours ago. Took ill for neuropathy too. Took Hydrocordone just a bit ago. Maybe it will ease the pain.
So here I sit until I hopefully can get to sleep. Worry and anxiety over the Kids' plight works on us both tremendously. Went down the aisle and prayed for the Kids Sunday. Pray every night and odd moment.

Extended Warranty plan ends next week and they want over 7,000 for just four more years, and all at once. Hard on Veterans pay and ss even from both of us and a Retirement account. Cost of everything is over three times since 09 it seems. No money for travel this year. Travel would do a lot of good. It helped last year the spirit and ignore the health problems some, sometimes a lot. Near four acres to mow tommorrow if it don't rain. High here today was 69 and cloudy but dry. High yesterday was only 73 or about the same. A hundred yards down the road can be 5 degrees warmer. The grass still wasn't dry this evening. Got several rolls of straw germination mat and seed to work on the hill. Going to need a lot more. Probably need a new mower by spring. neighbor bought a Dixie Chopper with a lot of power but only 54 in cut. Twin cooling fans on the transmissions and engine. Will hit 40mph+. Have to have a good suspended seat to do it here. Only paid 5,000. The four wheel drive job is 17,000. Need a UTV too to haul tools saws and chemicals. Impossible to carry it around here. Lots of work to do. Need a tractor to take care of the road up the hill, a continual nightmare. Other Owner won't cooperate and a real wash problem. Paving would be 20,000. Neighbor had two 18 month old Beagles take off this evening but didn't come back. Right size for the coyotes. He shot on of five the other day feeding a dead calf. Deer, coyotes and something with a big five towed paw are using the path out from the bedroom from across the road up the hill and points beyond and down the hill across the stream and up the other hill.
Church caame to bless the house late last month. Promised a get together here, pot luck. Wife is going to have to contact some to help organize it. Probably fill the place top to bottom. Love to have a bunch of folks come. Maybe I can get the Game Warden, Retired, to come. About time he got fixed up. Still got some expensive drainage work along the hill side and spring side of the drive. Maybe the Good Lord will help my back and so on and I can do it. Maybe the medicine is starting to kick in a little so off to bed perchance to dream of catching big bass some nice trout and touring Canada's lakes and streams. Pleasant Dreams

Before and after back surgery, I found it was easier to sleep in a recliner or chair with ottoman. Usually If I was sitting and waiting for meds to take effect, I would sit down in chair and that is where the DH would find me there later, feeling rested after sleeping. Hope all gets better.
