Well this weekend was a wash. I woke up promptly saturday at 430, took me 20 minutes to get out of bed, even then couldn’t straighten all the way up, or bend over any more, so i limped and felt my way to the kitchen and found an ice pack. Getting it from the freezer was another 20 minute agonizing adventure. 30 minutes of holding it against my back it finally numbed the pain enough so i could straighten up and then go to the bathroom.
I just knew if I sat on the toilet I wasn’t getting up for hours.
Fucking getting old and not taking care of yourself. Fantastic stuff.
I spent the entire weekend in bed with an ice pack and eating edibles so I couldn’t feel anything, even still it was rough moving or doing anything.
Sunday wasn’t as bad, but was still bad. Today, better.
The bad part is Ashley then had to go and do all the work I was supposed to do. She did ‘most’ of it, but there’s still things that need to be done. My back hurts but I have to get this done by Friday, that’s when I turn in the keys.
I’m going to go by today and grab a few things, they are going to the storage 10 mins from the old place so I should be able to do that then head home and ice pack and such.
In other news. Dakota, Ashley’s daughter is here now. Her dad decided to drive from North Carolina to here because of his girlfriends grandmother is dying or something.
Zach (Ashley’s ex/Dakota’s father) didn’t tell us he was coming, Dakota reached out on Friday to let us know she would be there in 7 hours.
Okay so Dakota was coming here for the summer, it was another part of our sense of urgency to find a place. However, Ashley was going to pick her up on the 12th, then they were driving down to Florida to visit her grandparents. THEN they would be coming back on the 20th or so to here. So we had time to get Dakota’s room and everything set up. Nope. She shows up Saturday afternoon. Ashley spent Friday doing what she could in the room. Saturday we (Ashley and I) were supposed to go and get everything done at the old place, then the plan changed to include her picking up Dakota. Seth and I were going to meet up and get started on cleaning etc. Should have taken a few hours then we were done until Friday.
When I woke up on Saturday in pain, I just knew this wasn’t happening. I cancelled Seth going because, I wasn’t going to go and if I’m there I can direct him in what I want. Ashley will get frustrated that he just doesn’t ‘know’ what to do next. Which i get, and usually I handle Seth, keep him focused and on task. But with me being unable to walk, I’m not going to put them two together and just making each other mad. Plus with Dakota being there, Ashley already has her hands full with one child that she hasn’t seen in months.
Other than the crippling agonizing pain. The weekend was okay. Realizing I was going to be ‘trapped’ in my bedroom. I installed POE 2 on the steam deck. It was, okay. My sorceress causes the game to lag, too many spells and effects happening. The deck is trying but it’s not a PC lol. I started a new character, the amazon? Huntress? whatever chick with a bow. Simple enough and easy enough for me to play while being bed ridden.
And that’s an exciting update. For someone. Not me though.
