Sleeping…
There are days where being disabled sucks; especially the nights when the aches and pains of life prevent REM sleep and the use tricks simply don’t work. Those nights lead to these mornings. Mornings when you’re still tired and need to decide whether making the pain in your back better (by sitting in your wheelchair) is worth making the pain in your still injured knee (from a month ago) worse by getting up, standing, transferring, and doing all the things that morning entails for this body. Last night was just night and this morning is just a morning. I’m not presently a happy person!
