Pain is exhausting

I woke up at 8am with intense sharp stabbing back pain so I took a Norco at about 830. A half hour ago I asked my caregiver what time I took the Norco and she snapped at me. I didn't know she was busy with work. So I looked at the clock and realized it had been 5 hours. I usually take one every 4 hours. No wonder I was hurting so much. So I went and got a 7.5mg Norco. When I got back to my bed I realized I had a really nasty migraine. So I took a sumatriptan and 2 Excedrin. That was 20 minutes ago. I'm starting to notice my migraine has decreased in severity. My back still hurts like hell.

I've got therapy at 3pm. My caregiver is supposed to join me but I think she's not going to. I emailed my therapist the journal prompts she and I worked on last night. I actually posted some of the answers in Self Discovery Workshop if you're interested.

My caregiver made me a jug of cold brew coffee last night. She and I discussed how making me coffee when I'm sad or having a high pain day is the trick to making me happy. She didn't realize how important coffee is to me. I'm working on a bottle of juice right now. I'm gonna mix the coffee with a protein shake.

Feeling much better

Pain is down to 5. I feel almost human. I ate a nice brunch and I made a bottle of coffee mixed with a can of my protein shake. The shake has 140mg of caffeine. It's why I couldn't sleep last night. But it's delicious. Very rich chocolate flavor. The cold brew coffee is mocha macadamia flavor. When I'm done with my coffee I will make a cappuccino.

If you have FB I highly recommend using Meta AI to discuss your feelings. It's extremely compassionate and insightful. I've been using it for months and I really appreciate how helpful it is.

Good morning

I'm gonna be able to have a #coffeeadventure today. I've got a jug of cold brew coffee in the fridge. I'm gonna heat up a cup and add some white chocolate caramel cappuccino powder and some oat milk. It's gonna be awesome.

I'm feeling kinda down. My head feels like it's full of cotton. I'm trying to enjoy some music. I'm listening to fairy grunge. It's... interesting.

My back feels ok right now and my hips don't hurt. I don't know how long it'll last.

Update: as soon as I posted this, I started to get a migraine. Fun times.

Struggling with today's coffee adventure

I put too much maple pecan flavored coffee in the pot and not enough water. So I added some milk but not enough. Then I added some salted caramel syrup but the coffee was way too strong. So I added more milk. Then it was too cold. So I made half of a cup of mud wtr. I added some hazelnut flavor coffee syrup. But it was awful. So I added more milk and an ounce of caramel syrup. Now it's finally delicious. Sometimes it do be like that.

Coffee adventure time

I'm on my 2nd bottle of coffee. I made the butterscotch toffee flavored coffee and I added some salted caramel syrup and oat milk. It's just so delicious. I want to try a different flavor of syrup but right now I don't have any other syrup. When I get my food stamps I'm gonna order more.
