I finally had a good sleep last night. I was cozy and warm all snuggled up with my wife. I even slept through the night until my alarm woke me up.

But from the moment I woke up, my shoulder and neck have been in pain. Debilitating pain that has stopped me from basic activities. Driving has been challenging as it hurts to shoulder check since it’s my left side. Which is contrary to my normal pain on the right side.

I must accept that I am always in pain. But I don’t want to. Maybe stretching before bed? Perhaps more pain killers? Cry and whine?

Ugh. Getting older sucks. Maybe I’ll trade a shitty night sleep to wake up without pain.
