My night
Well folks I had a bad night. My wife has been sick , the kids are sick, for the first time in many years I am the heathy one in our house.
Now for those of you that dont know I dont sleep. I get about 45 minutes of sleep a night, been doing this for almost 8 years. The not sleeping gets me in trouble because I wander around the house when everyone is sleeping. Last night I get the brain stormer idea that popcorn would be a good snack, so I open the cabinet door and a huge lid that was propped up rolls out. I tried to catch it so as to not wake eveyone when it hit the floor. I reached for it and dislocated my elbow for the second time in 3 days. This time it really, really hurt because it was sore allready.
Well I had to wake up (she slept through the lid noise) the wife to get my elbow back in joint. She was not happy. We tried the first time to gentley pull the elbow apart again, just as she was doing this she sneezed. I wish she would have let go of my arm first. The pain almost caused me to pass out, but the joint went back to getther, and to be honest it feels better than it did last night.
Well I am off to ice down this elbow, even now it feels better than it had in a couple days.
Everyone have a good day, David.

Closed the gun shop a few min before 8 and drove the 25 miles to my house. I live in the country surrounded by corn soy beans two vineyards and good nebhors. I love a good thunder storm and there is a good one just starting. Steady lightning coming out of the east west and the north. I sat in the driveway watching it get closer and closer until the first big drops of rain. I got a good book and a good bottle of red and a great show outside. Hope you guys have a good night[:)][:)] 0 -
You forgot the important part.
Did you get your popcorn? [:o)][;)][:D][:D]
Sorry to hear about the family being sick, and the elbow, hope ALL feel better soon.0 -
That does sound like a comedy bit out of Zucker comedy. Hope you feel better soon. 0 -
I have had bouts of insomnia but an 8 year run of it would be enough to do me in. You need to go to a sleep clinic, NOW![xx(] 0 -
I swear, after I have a problem to complain about ... I just come here and read my fill ...
shake my head in disbelief ... and am immediately reassured that I'm doing just fine!
Thanks guys!

Been there done that. Was no help. I have Hypopnea so sleeping meds are not an otpion.0 -
I'm sorry to hear of your troubles Dave. I can certainly relate on the sleeping issues. I doubt that I sleep an hour a night...and I haven't for 15 years. It wears on you over time... 0
