BYC Café

I have pain every time I get up.

I need to be able to get to my pain appointments instead of canceling them and moving to another day.
My 90 year old parents in law say, as long as they wake up in the morning with pain they know they are still alive 🤪 but I hear what you are saying 🙄 I think the last 10 years I haven’t been free of pain, first my endometriosis was causing lots of pain, then I got carpal tunnel in both hands, hated waking up a couple of times every night with “dead” hand sensation, after that I fractured my big toe joint into multiple pieces ( hasn’t been right since then) and the last 2 years my hips have made sleeping through the night impossible 🙄 I always knew getting old wasn’t for wimps, but I wasn’t aware it would start at 45 😩

I started falling apart at 40. Now 67 years old. Do not figure I will survive 10 more years. Good luck everyone.

I started falling apart early in my life and I will always think positive about living.

I am now 78 to turn 79 in a few weeks.

I want to see 100 before I bite the dust.
 
Good morning Cafe. Coffee is now ready too.

I got inked yesterday!

This is a red spotted purple butterfly. I see them when I hike the dogs through the forest from time to time and love them.

Butterfly tattoos symbolize transformation, change and personal growth. Blue butterflies symbolize peace and tranquility.
I had it put on the back of my shoulder to symbolize it's emergence from the weight that was constantly being put there for me to bear that didn't crush me but changed me in profound ways. I survived it and I'm getting stronger from it.

I went for the consult a couple of weeks ago and the tattoo appointment got scheduled on 2/2 at 2:00. How fortuitous!
