Goals

I set some goals for myself today because if I didn't I would sink into such a depression nothing would save me.

First goal I didn't know was a goal but was a dream. I was sleeping a wonderful Oxy sleep, dreaming I was running off of the highest roof to kill myself. I got to the edge and my thought was hell yes jump. And I jumped. I landed in a heap at the bottom but didn't die just woke up and thought damn that myth wasn't true.

Goal 1) OK it's 11:00am and you're just waking up and what do you want to do? A shower was a good answer, so I got showered and dressed with shoes and everything.

Goal 2) Feed the piggies and clean out their cage and give them fresh water. I got that done.

Goal 3) Go for a walk outside. Go at least a 1/4 of a mile and back. I did it. It felt good.

Goal 4) NO MORE OXY for pain. NONE. Dumped the bottle out. I've seen what prolonged use of the drug can do and I was falling into the pits of it. I haven't had a oxy since 10:00pm last night. I was taking them every 4 hours.

Goal 5) Too make more goals for the day...maybe go back to work at the hospital for one day just to see how I do.

Goal 6) Try and visit some other blogs today. :)

I'm amazed by you every day. One of my brother in laws got hooked on the ole Oxy. He had to go through a detox center in order to get off of it. Bad detox reaction. BAD.

I'm SO glad you visited my bloggy today! I may send you some prison popcorn just for shits and giggles!

When I came home from the Hospital the last time with the abscess the little bag of antibiotics had a surprise in it. A bottle of 90 Oxy even though he knew I hated any kind of pain pills. I put them in the drawer with the rest of my meds. About a week later having taken none I looked at the bottle and it was missing 12. I took it and dumped it down the john. I have two Stepdaughters and one suffers from migraines and her boyfriend has a messed up back.
The only time I took pain meds in the hospital was just before they changed my dressing.
Looking at what they did to you I think I would not mind a pain pill every 5 or 10 minutes though.
Goals are good but meeting them is the best. Stay strong.
It's past my bedtime.

My mom used to give me her Oxy.
In hindsight, that wasn't such a good thing.

Never had it - probably never will. You did great to get rid of it... my late husband OD'd on his pain pills after a knee replacement... it killed him.

Oxy is hateful shit. Legal heroin, really. I'm SO glad you tossed that shit!
