I ventured out for food twice, but other than that have been subsisting on the continental breakfast here (thank goodness I was upgraded to a club floor!!). My eating has been terrible, and I have really been unable to move much. I brought workout clothes and intended to do weights for my arms. I tried that once and realized that was totally a joke; I left in 10 minutes because it hurt so bad.
So, I sit here and do nothing. The TV channels here suck. I have books to read, but for some reason haven't been reading. I've just been wasting time online and sleeping (depression anyone?). I have decided to go to a PT tomorrow. I know my insurance won't cover it, but it will be worth it to get something out of this conference. I am especially bummed since I had to miss the final day of my workshop; I simply could not walk that morning.
Sorry to hear about your pain. I herniated a disk in my low back and had sciatica from it. Horribly painful. I was worried about getting addicted to the narcotic pain pills, too, being a food lover. Those are some scary things!
ReplyDeletePT would probably be really helpful for you!
Oh geeza louisa! I hope you feel better AND soon! I totally get what you're laying down about the sleeping and depression. Don't spiral down or well try not to, eh!
ReplyDeleteYou may be bored, but you are doing the right thing. It has to be hard to be there, but it least you are making it manageable. Take care.
