today; a day of but

August 7, 2017 4:43am CST
I should go downstairs and open the curtains, allow some sunlight {what sunlight? The world outside appears to be dull and grey.} to come streaming in and brighten the house. But I hurt. I hurt all over. Husband growls, Go to the doctor! but the doctor will just look at me and wonder what's wrong. I should paint the shed and/or the decking today, but my excuse is that the clouds are full of rain. This is true, but really, I just hurt. I hurt in a way that suggests I should simply curl up in bed with the puddy-cats and watch random shows on Netflix and Amazon. I ought to get dressed, but that involves movement and bending and have I told you that I hurt? I hurt all over. I am not me today. I shall conserve my energy for days out with Mumsy {beginning tomorrow}. Today is difficult when the pain exists everywhere.

@poppylicious My doctor's standard response to malady and pain is that we'll keep an eye on that and see how it goes.

I try not to visit the doctor because I don't want to waste their time and hear them spout such nonsense. It hurts, do something, don't just see how it goes! Grrr ...

If your talking about Physical Pain you can atleast take an Over-the-counter pain reliver for some sort of relief. Get well soon.

I'm not sure what sort of pain it is. My body seems to grow weary and spout pain randomly.

@Poppylicious Ohh.. I not really an expert regarding this stuff. However, I believe we can heal ourselves. Sometimes its just on the mind. I agree about your reason on not going to the doctor, sometimes they really doesn't help. I hope you heal yourself very soon. Have a good day!

I am so sorry. Most of the time doctors have no clues about our pain, at most they say to get an Ibuprofen and see how it goes. I hope you feel better today.

@Poppylicious My brother still has the habit to tell me "take an aspirin", I cannot take aspiring, I feel sick if I do. I hope he remembers better what his patients cannot take.

I feel better. I'm not supposed to take Ibuprofen so they can't say that to me!
