So here I am at the feeling better part of this pattern. My chest is still sore, but its no longer agony and my painkillers are taking care of that. I can actually skip the nighttime dose without waking up...Which is good 'cause Vicoden gives me some seriously funky dreams. So rather than 4-5/day, I'm only taking 2-3. And rather than 600mg of ibuprofen every 6 hrs, I only take 200mg. Hooray! My liver and kidneys do a happy dance
If the pattern holds true, I should have about 4-7 days of feeling relatively well (if frustrated by my lack of energy).
Hubby is away in North Africa. I went to the food Co-op before he left and filled up on relatively healthy frozen food. I realized that we were eating out waaay to much. Enough that it is adversely impacting our budget. My brain woke up enough to realize that if I bought the designer frozen food that the local equivalent of Whole Paycheck sells, we'd still save money and I wouldn't have to actually cook. And my children can actually eat something other than junk. It seems to be a good compromise.
Cleaned my kitchen yesterday. Hooray! I even managed to mop my disgusting floor.

even the littlest of achievements that many take for granted we find joy. ugh!
I'm so glad you're feeling better. Be home soon.
I admire you're perseverance. When I'm feeling better we'll have some meals for you. I'm feeling a glimmer of hope after today's afternoon nap and the knowledge that I'm off my meds.
