Fell asleep reading Flim Flam! on the recliner around, oh, 10ish? Woke at 6:30 full of energy. The hips still hurt, but I was comfortable enough to get *actual* *real* *sleep*, and that made a huge difference.
My sis gave me a rocker about six months ago. It's amazing. I've been subsisting on old wooden chairs and plastic lawn furniture (because it's so inexpensive - good to have a stack to pull out when there are too many guests) and the occasional kinda-cool chair from a yard sale. Then I got this rocker. OMG. I need a few thou to fill my house with comfy chairs.
Glad you got some rest! I don't have the pain problem, but it'd be nice if the fire/EMT pager didn't go off at 1 am. Time for a nap.
