Pain in the neck

This is from earlier in the year....I've been suffering from severe pain in the neck and shoulder region. 

Got a couple of diagnoses: one is a brain situation that was revealed in an MRI - turns out I have a congenital disease called a Chiari malformation. 

The other is just...well...bad posture and a whiplash kind of effect on my neck due to a lack of curvature in neck - called cervical lordosis. 

So I've been working on neck exercises through regular physiotherapy. Even a day without exercise is terrible pain. 

Pain is so....painful. All I want is to be pain-free but that feels like a distant dream sometimes.



PeeBee is a child abandoner

 I was cuddling the girls at bedtime tonight - my favorite activity everyday - and there was some drama. I told S1 I was done cuddling and was leaving the room when she declared, 

"I'm so disappointed in you, PeeBee. You're such a child abandoner."

Big kids, big words. 😂

P.S.: My nickname has gone from Dop Dop to Dop to PB to PeeBee over the past couple of years.
