.....Just to let you know, nothing in this journal's entry is toward anyone in specific, I use it to write my feelings, and about my illnesess, and in hopes it might help someone else as I do.I do not pretend nor imatate to be someone I'm not.I have to be careful, apparently someone are way too obsessed with 'my' life. And if you might take an entry wrong and feel that it is about you, I'm sorry but It isn't, it just may seem to coincide with your own life. And if there is something in what I write that "offends" you, options; don't read, or realize that this IS real life, and get out of your plastic bubble and learn more about it! God bless you!......
Good morning! I hope that you are all doing/feeling good this morning!
Well.....I was up again last night. I ended up having to take 3 pain pills! All they did was take the edge off a bit. But...that always helps too. Just to get the pain level down.
My physical therapist had to wake me up this morning to give me my deep tissue massage. Yep...it hurt! Plus, not being able to sleep and the added stress...which more stress makes more pains and less sleep! So....thats what I'm going through right now! It's an endless circle right now. 
My daughter, her husband and my grandson were here again last night! :o) My husband watched him while they went out to dinner! :o) He is soooo funny! lol He really had me laughing! lol I wanted to take a video of him, but my daughter had my camera! lol Next time! :o)
I was told that many of you J-Lander's are up late as well! You know....maybe we need an 'J-Lander's up all night' chat room! lol :o) You know, that just might work! It would give all of us company! :o) Just a thought! :o)
My home health aide comes today at 1:30. I hope I can stay awake for when she comes. :o) Whew!
I have a poem that I want to share!
A Sure Way to a Happy Day
Happiness is something we create in our minds-
It's not something you search for and so seldom find.
It's just waking up and begining the day
By counting our blessings and kneeling to pray.
It's giving up thoughts that breed discontent
And accepting what comes as a gift heaven-sent.
It's giving up wishing for things we have not
And making the best of whatever we've got.
It's knowing that life is determined for us
And pursuing our tasks without fret, fume, or fuss...
For it's by completing what God gives us to do
That we find real contentment and happiness, too.
By; Helen Steiner Rice
I need to go....my husband just called to see how I was doing. :o)
Thank all of you for your much needed support! God bless all of you!

Lisa, I loved your poem, hope you have a good pain-free day, Love Ya Lisa XO
Lisa, hope you are having less pain as I type this message to you dear. Now don't laugh, give this a try, has helped a lot of folks. Buy a bar of soap (no moisturizer soaps though, like Dial) we use a bar of Jergens soap. Place it on your sore area where you hurt, give it a few days and see if this helps you. We acturally keep a bar of wrapped Jergens soap under the sheets at the middle of the end of the mattress and it's helped with siactica pain and hubby's leg cramps. Worth trying, who knows might be of comfort. Have read in a medical column of runners who sleep with the bar of soap on the area that hurts and by morning they feel great. Loved your poem.

A nice sentiment in this poem. You are always coming up with items that do give people incentive to bear up under their burdens as you do. Good for you. Gerry
You really need to start sleeping.....you are going to feel alot worse without proper sleep. I know you already know this but I thought I would say it anyway. I hope your appt goes well today.
