What happens after The Neanderthal is exceptionally brutal during a morning physical therapy session?
I *might* have taken a pain pill when I got home.
This is something I almost never do because, regardless of my post-PT pain level, I want/need to be able to function with a clear head throughout the day.
And then, as the pain meds wore off later in the afternoon, I *might* have taken another pain pill.
Because, by that time, I was clenching my teeth and wanting to throw things at the wall with my “good” left arm.
(By the way, I took both pain pills with a few bites of yogurt because I’m all about probiotics lately!!)
Being drugged up isn’t “normal” for me, even though I do live with #$%*@ chronic pain.
The next thing I knew, I found myself taking photos like this ….

It made perfect sense at the time.

I think that picture is totally awesome. Wish I could save it for a screen saver to keep with your old (before locked pictures) of Laguna Beach
Hugs and hope the arm is doing a little better with pain today.
Thank you Laura.
I’ve got a Lidoderm pain patch on today and it’s helping.
I don’t know why I didn’t think to use one yesterday!
I, too, think the photo is awesome. It just goes to show that even in pain and wonky from meds, you’re talented and creative.
Thank you Jan! : )
You didn’t think to use the lidoderm patch because you were in pain. *And* on pain pills (clear head?), which you took because it was acute pain as opposed to the usual chronic? Who wouldn’t?!!
Got a problem. Love the picture. Tried to see how much it was to buy it. I want it. But the buttons are shaded out. Not sure what I’m supposed to do? I tried a couple of different browsers, but it must just be operator error.
Spoken as a person who knows pain!
I emailed you regarding how to order a photo. Let me know if you run into any problems or have more questions.
Thank you for your interest in the photo! : )
