I’m new here!

Hi, my name is LisaHintelmann. After so many years in the military, all the physical training, carrying heavy equipment and the strain on my back eventually caught up with me. I injured it a few times over the years, and the pain became more constant. Eventually it got bad enough that I couldn’t keep doing the physical demands of the job, and that’s when they medically retired me. It’s something I still have to be careful with, unfortunately.

I served in the military for more than 15 years, but I was medically retired because of constant back pain and injuries to my eardrums. The ear problems left me sensitive to prolonged phone conversations, so sometimes it’s difficult for me to stay on calls for long. I hope you understand ❤️

I'm having a very difficult day

Pauley is browsing movies to watch and she found pulp fiction. She's never seen it before. Over the last 5 days we watched Dead poets society and what dreams may come. She wants to see more movies with Robin Williams. She's never seen any of his big movies. I really want to watch "To Wang Fu" but we can't find it.
Anywho.
Tomorrow night is Pauley's birthday dinner at Outback Steakhouse. I'm really excited. I'm gonna get a bloomin onion... Even though Pauley hates onions. Can you imagine how difficult it is to make yummy food without onions?
I've got a nasty flare up of Seb derm right behind my left ear. It's a thick scab and it hurts like hell. It's probably cuz I'm nervous about taking a bus to Detroit on Saturday.
My back pain spiked to 8. I'm gonna take 2 trampolines. LoL so I'm in a disabled adults group on Facebook. One of the rules is not spelling the names of meds so now I call them trampolines.
