Well to cut a long story short, in January I fell down some stairs at work and hurt myself. I had major challenges getting the fund to pay for the medical attention I needed so I eventually gave up. Some time later though I took up the fight again and told them that I at least wanted a medical checkup to ensure there was no damage.
Meanwhile back on the ranch I was getting major head aches but as I have been a long time migraine sufferer I figured it was just the migraines acting up again and didn't pay it too much attention. Needless to say on Tuesday when the checkup was due, I had a headache from hell and had actually told my boss that if I did not have the appointment in the afternoon I would have gone home.
So the doc turned out to be an orthopedic surgeon and not a physio as I had expected. He asked me a few random questions before sending me off for x-rays. Well that really showed me where the injury was as putting my head back and chin up was excruciating.
He prescribed a simple soft neck brace, pain killers and some Valium to sleep better. Mmmm now I usually don't need any help in the sleep department but I took them anyway. Ha, I woke up the next morning to find my sunflower seeds (my usual bed time snack) sprawled all over the bed....Lol!
I hoped the second night would go better but when I woke up this morning I could have sworn I ate something in the middle of the night, but going down to the kitchen later I found no evidence of any abnormal extracurricular nocturnal activity..............
That was until I arrived home and opened the container in which I had placed my fish cakes that I had grilled the night before. Would you believe it, but two pieces were missing and the box was covered in my favourite sweet chili sauce..........bwahahahahaha! Needless to say I don't think I'll be taking the Valium tonight.
In our spiritual walk we can sometimes find ourselves doing some strange things. If we examine the situation though we will usually find that there has been some outside force/influence that is affecting our mood, behaviour or actions. If you don't need them, I'd say rather cut them out and let life be.
Now should I strap myself to the bed tonight or not??? Teeheehee!
