Just call me Dopey

Yesterday was bad.  I had a 6 hour shift, and stayed a little extra to help out, but I was in horrible pain all day.  I felt like I was going to just pass out on several occasions too.  By the time we finally got home, I was in tears.  I literally had to pick up my legs to get out of the car, it was so bad.  My whole body was locked up and I couldn't move.  I broke down and took a Flexeril (muscle relaxer) but it never seems to help the pain, just allows me to sleep.  The downside - I'm drugged for hours after I finally wake up.  I got up around 0900, which is late for me, and I was back in bed by 1230.  I just feel dopey, drugged, hungover, but still in pain.

Today is my first day off in two weeks and I did not want to spend it laying around incoherent. I'm exhausted and easily confused.  I was trying to talk to a guy about our car loan and deferring payments so the car doesn't get repossessed... that was fun.  I'm sure he was getting sick of me not understanding what he was saying, and I know I wasn't making myself clear either, but it had to be done.  I was on the phone at least 20 minutes, but our car is safe.  We deferred two months and will pay one payment over the course of the next two weeks so our account is caught up.  We have enough to pay rent now, thanks to the small loan we got from family, and now Nathan is on the phone to work out a deal on TV/Internet.

Tomorrow I'll go to the Sheriff's office to see what can be done regarding the judgement papers I got last week.  I needed to go today, but no way was I going in my condition.  They would've locked me up and done drug tests for sure.

Hopefully this post makes sense... I'm having a hard time seeing and typing so keeping it short today.
