The past several months, I have been on very short rations of sleep due to knee and car accident related pain. I had a meltdown last week, crying, ranting, and just nuts. But sleep deprivation can do that ( Read more... )

In bed for 8hrs 45 mins. Actual sleep time, 8 hrs 11 mins. I haven't felt THIS rested in weeks ( Read more... )

Wing brought a Neti pot home tonight, for me to use. Heated up some filtered water, added it and the ph balanced salt mixture and flushed my sinuses out. It took a while for the solution to exit because of how swollen my sinuses must have been. But when it started flowing out, the painful pressure started easing.
