Sitting here early in the morning

You know there are just some days you can't just sleep in a little. I am sitting here at five o'clock in the morning. I was up at four. Give me a break here.

My mind is just rushing with things I can't seem to figure out. First off I bought a new set of lights to put outside for Christmas. Yesterday I could not for the life of me figure out how to get them together so they work. So low and behold I am up this morning playing around with them. I need my sleep, but that doesn't seem to make my mind turn off so I can sleep and stop thinking about what had to be done. Well I did eventually figure out how to get them together so they all work at once.

I may not be to smartest bulb in the lot but I did get them to work. Took two hours to figure it out. Real technical it was. Just have to plug in both the plug and the transformer and they start doing the sequence they are suppose to do. I thought I had a bunch of broken sets that would not work together. I think sjogrens is going to my head.

Lately I have been feeling light headed and walking is getting to be a bit of a chore. Well at least to walk straight that is. I am heading in a direction and for some reason it takes longer to get there. What is with that. It is a straight line I a heading for but my body just wants to take a detour to the right or the left. I do end up were I want to be eventually but it just takes a little extra time to get there.

The fibro is playing havoc with me as well. One day will feel pretty good and then the next day my back is a little sore in the morning and by afternoon I have what feels like the flu again. Every were just hurts. Even my skin if I touch it feels like there is barb wire running up and down it. I bang something with my arm and the pain just runs every were. Brother that is a pain.

Now steps are getting to be a problem with me as well. I have to use the stair quite a bit during the day. To go to lunch room and then back down to desk. At home allot of things are down stairs. My work shop, my craft room, the laundry room and so on maybe just to get outside and let the dogs out. Going down is not too much of problem but coming back up my knees buckle and I have to stop. So now living in the house that I love is now going to start to be a problem as well.

Oh oh here comes some twinges to my shoulders and back. I guess it is time to stop my whining here and maybe head back to bed for a little more snoozing before I have to go to work. Yeah another day of work. I really would love to retire but the bills will not get paid that way. Some day I hope it will be a reality. But for now have to keep truckin along and feeling the pain and whining. I know you are all sick of hearing it but I am probably going to be whining allot more as this progresses further and hurts more.

Time for a little snooze before I end up at work sleeping.

Sniff, sniff, snort, snort, cough, cough

Oh gaul another cold. Is there anytime that I don't get a cold here.

Work is the worse cuprite for giving me colds. Have to touch money all the time and you know how dirty that is. With how many people touch it through the day. Then there are the dirty bottles I have to return all the time. Some of them are just discusting. The last thing is all the people that come up to buy cigarette. Some of them do not seem to be in the best of health when they come up to me, but they got to have their pack of smokes for the week.

It is a wonder I am not sicker all the time. Thank goodness for that. It is getting harder and harder to stay healthy though. If I could find myself a job that wouldn't have to deal with the public. Could hide in my own little cubical away from everyone and do my stuff. I know that is never going to happen. Finding a job when you are almost close to retirement is not a easy feat. Who would like to hire someone who is now over the hill as my son keeps saying.

Maybe winning the loto. I know that is not an option either. I do buy the tickets but will never see a winning from it either. You say never say never but my luck never runs to being a winner at anything. Everything has a purpose in life and I just happen to be living in my own unlucky life here.

I ended up being sick. Which is not curable. It will just get worse as time goes by. My life isn't great sometimes but I am making the best of it. There are times when I would just love to crawl under the covers and never come out again.

Well now I have another cold come on. Great. It started here a few days ago with a sore throat. I just couldn't get rid of it. It just kept being sore. Up into my nose and down to my chest. Was not easy to swallow. I ended up loosing four pounds out of it because I couldn't eat much. One advantage. Then the fever came. And the coughing. Lovely. One big dry cough. And the just kept coming. Couldn't stop coughing. This came on when I was at work. Busy day and I could not get any relief so I could go to the back for a minute. I had a customer in front of me and you could see him backing up as he didn't want to be near me. Well for sure I didn't want to be near me either. My eye started to run as well. And started to caked over so I couldn't see out of my one eye.

The next day I had to call in sick. I was high with fever and the fibro was kicking in to make it worse. I had aches and pains everywhere. Couldn't move much at all. All I wanted to do was sleep and cuddle up in blankets to keep warm.

This I say is not a normal cold. Went to the clinic to see if I might have something else. Well he said nothing to worry about no fluid in my lungs so it isn't pnemonia. So he gave me some antibiotics and sent me on my way.

Well today the cough still persist. And I think there is still abit of a fever. At least I am up and around again. Time to go back to work today and see all those lovely germs again. Along with the ones I will be spreading as well.

I bet they won't want me there today. But I have to go back.

So I have complained enough here for now. Time to go cough all over the place someplace else. Just lovely.
