Made it through my first six-hour work day at home, and also my first day at home without Brad. Last night I slept a total of about two hours, and surprisingly only felt the need to sleep about 90 minutes in the afternoon. I don't know why I couldn't sleep; it wasn't pain related, I just wasn't tired enough to fall asleep. Instead I ended up emailing some people, doing some work and watching DVD #1 of "The Office", Season 5, which I got for Christmas. At least I was semi-productive.
The best part of my day was that my mom brought over an old recliner they had in the basement, which everyone forgot existed. While I love my couch for lying down, it was not a good "working" place to sit for any length of time, as it would really bother my hip. So my mom brought over the recliner, and with two strategically placed pillows it is now my new work chair. It is very comfortable, and really relieves my hip pain. I think I now have everything I need to get through the next couple of weeks at home.

YAY mom!! They always come through, don't they!! Congrats to you on a six hour work day! Hopefully your sleep will improve...maybe your mind is too bored to sleep!
Yes, mom's always come through - and you should know best, because you're a mom! :-) Actually, I think part of my sleeping issue is that my mind is too active. This is the busiest time of year accounting-wise, so to be gone for a few weeks and then only work PT is killing me. I feel very behind, and my head is always racing with what needs to be done next. It's not the only reason I'm unable to sleep, but I think it's a big contributor.
