Day 41 – Breathing

I slept fine when I slept and but couldn’t get back to sleep much after 2am.  I slept on my side and no pain pills. It may have been the house was too warm.  We will work on that.  Sacramento is getting warmer. I took my walk at a slightly slower pace and I’m more … Read more

Day 40 – Planes again

Airplane Flying

I think I slept better.  It was certainly different.  First I was back to my usual pillows which have me very flat.  I also didn’t take a pain pill since if I lay the right way, my chest muscles don’t really bother me.  I don’t remember if I slept on my back or side starting … Read more

Day 39 – Mesa Mercado

Mesa Mercado Restaurant

I slept solidly from arond 9:30 to 5am-ish.  I also was sleeping much more flat than normal which was nice.  I.e. fewer pillows.  I took a pain pill.  But I still felt tired.  I imagine I hadn’t slept well enough the previous couple of days.  After breakfast I took a 90 minute nap till around … Read more

Day 37 – Sleepy

I Slept well.   Stretching is still helping my sternum feel better and I continue to gradually lose weight. I spent much of the day working on a small business proposal for some follow on work with one of my clients.  I got it done and got some good initial feedback based on some questions I … Read more

Day 36 – Bedtime Story

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel

Sleep was interesting.  I’ve been heading to bed around 8 most evenings.  I’m just exhausted by then.  I read or watch something and generally try to sleep by around 9.  (Digression:  Last night was “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” on Amazon.  Somewhere I had heard something about it.  It isn’t what I expected and not really … Read more

Day 35 – Stretching

Stretching

5 weeks since my surgery.  I slept really well.  I think the big problem I’m having with discomfort with my sterum is I’m not doing any stretching exercises.  There are some simple ones I’m supposed to do but I never consider stretching to be worthwhile.  Except I know that it is and would help.  And … Read more

Day 34 – Driving

2016 Honda Fit

Outside of being awake for several hours I slept well and feel good so far.  And I caught up with the latest episode of WestWorld.  And continued watching the new season of Amazon’s football documentary series.  And then slept more. My walk was good.  I needed to get a refill of my pain meds (which … Read more

Day 33 – Launch

LinearWorlds.com

I slept much better and feel more human today.  I’ll do everything I can to stay well rested. I scheduled some more blog posts.  I’ve been having trouble coming up with images for each post and sometimes with catchy titles with blog posts.  But I’m still writing and still updating and it has been 33 … Read more

Day 32 – Lettuce

Lettuce

I went to bed and not long after took a pain pill and was able to more easily get through the night.  I’m nearly out of them but have enough to get through the weekend and call in for a refill Monday.  I didn’t have any bad dreams from them this time.  I was just … Read more
