You know, I really need to stop talking about how good I’ve been having it. It just seems to invite problems.

My sinuses are feeling a lot better, so I actually fell asleep at a normal hour like a normal person. I fell asleep on my left side with a pillow between my knees.

I woke up on my right side with no pillow between my knees. And a very significantly painful left hip. I tried rolling onto my left side, but rolling onto that hip just felt like I was whacking myself on a large, painful bruise. Hip NOT happy. Roll back to my left, prop it up with a pillow… but it continued to ache. In fact, little weird tingly shivers of pain were all the way down my left leg. Must really have done something to some nerves. Urk.

I tried waiting it out for 20 minutes, but the pain didn’t get better so I thought getting up would be the best thing for it… stretch it out, get the blood flowing, and get off my sides. I got out of bed and nearly collapsed on my left leg. Holy pain batman! I can barely put any weight on that leg, the pain just shoots up my hip.

So I’m limping around right now. I even had the pleasure of walking into the kitchen (which took effort to get over the baby gate – You know it’s bad when you stand there wondering if you should just take it down…) to find out the cats knocked over the garbage can again. Gah. Try bending over to clean that up right now. Urk.

So yeah. Hip pain bad. SLEEP WITH PILLOWS.
