where it just seems like everything small keeps going wrong...
Feelin a bit more worn down this month than usual.
Fell out with the woman I've been with the past 5 years, which means I lose contact with my first dog (which totally sucks)
Hockey team is in a bit of trouble first round of the playoffs. (I know... Canadian problems right...)
Happy this hobby of growing keeps my mind occupied at times, but I have had a very difficult time keeping myself busy over the past 2 years away from gainful employment. (fighting with govt for wage loss from an injury I got while at work)
According to what my doctor told me, the superficial radial nerve in my left arm was severed. The one end of the nerve atrophied into my hand and basically died off, causing dead sensation in the back of my hand around my thumb and index finger. The other side of the nerve grew a neuroma and changed position in my arm as it was retracting back under the muscle. It got stuck on top of the muscle because of this neuroma (basically a little growing ball of nerves on the end of a nerve) and it's now sitting on top of the muscle in my forearm exposed, just under my skin, causing constant pain and increased sensation.
At first it wasn't all that bad, but it got worse and worse, until now I'm at the point where I can't even rest my arm out the window while driving because the air rushing past the hair on my forearm causes it to feel like it's burning and itchy under the skin, and then I can't itch it because touching the area causes more sensation or pain.
Anyway, I know there are a few other people who may be in similar situations of stagnant lifestyle with being on disability, or due to the economy etc... What does everyone else do when they're not tending to their plants to stay sane...
I try to walk my dog as many times as I can pull myself off the couch for... I don't know what it is, I guess I'm just a little extra tired this month of all the junk i've got rattling around in my head.
