yesterday was my first day of really being up, first day of getting dressed and out of the house. it was tough, and today i'm pretty much staying in bed. we had to run some errands yesterday, and sign some papers, so i wanted a clear head, so i put off taking any pain pills until evening. if it had just been me sitting around all day, that would have been okay, but all that motion really made things difficult. anyway, i'm going to take a shower, then go back to bed (or my recliner) until tomorrow. other than that, things are fine. cutting back on the meds means i can read a little bit, and watch tv for more than 15 minutes w/out dozing off, so i'm not quite so bored.
