Sleep, Sleep, Wonderful sleep

Oh, how I wish I could get more. For the past few days I have been feeling really stiff. No joint pain but mostly muscles tightening. This morning when I woke up, guess who made an appearance so that it wouldn't be left out. Joint pain! Yep, that's right. I had forgotten how horrible it feels to walk on my feet when the joints are acting up. I wobbled to the bathroom and back grimacing along the way. So, I know when I take my Enbrel shot tonight, I will definitely be out like a light. I have to get my daily required writing in before I even think about taking the shot. I so want to get the novel completed! Yet I have also noticed that I feel like my nose is stuffy and I'm coughing up a little bit of lovely stuff. I did call my rheumy but he feels that since I'm not running a fever, I should be okay taking my shot tonight. I still feel like crap. I could very well lay down and go to sleep for hours. But I can't do that with the things that I would like to do. This blog included. I have a doctor's appointment coming up for my yearly exam. Oh yeah! Not! Lol, it's something that I have to do because of my family history and to be honest, I'd rather be safe than sorry. Just will keep in mind that it's important.

As I have written before, I signed up for the novel writing challenge. There's really no prize but knowing that you can actually get a whole novel or most of one written in just a month's time. So far, I have written just over 6,000 words. Someone once broke it down and figured out that to accomplish the task, you would have to write 1,667 words each day. I believe that would even put you over by a few words. Yet you would reach the goal. I have basically been a typing fool the last couple of days, nearly wearing my wrists thin. Not that I mind much right now. It actually feels good to me because it's a sign that I have really used them. The sad thing is that I have to stop typing once the ache or burn happens because if I don't, it would really be bad for my wrists. Besides, this blog and the novel challenge has actually given me something to look forward to, even on my worst days. I have a lot more of them than I care to have, but I always remind myself that if I didn't go through them, someone else would have to have a bad day. I just let the minutes pass and soon the day is over. On to the next day!

Oh, I'm so sitting here, half asleep. I know that it's a short post today. I'm so sorry for that. I promise to make it up to you all when I can. Not that many people read this anyway. Lol, at least I don't think they do. I'm off to annoy Chris, who took a day off from work to be nice to me today since he was a jerk earlier in the week. It was funny cause I called him on the fact he was acting like a jerk. It took him being at work to realize that indeed, he was. So he asked his boss if he could have the day off to get out of the doghouse. *giggles* Plus, he's wanting to move the furniture in the bedroom around. Since that is where the computer is, I won't be able to type anymore. Have a great night folks. I promise a longer entry later.

Until next time,
Kim
