Pain is Winning

I've woken up this morning and the pain in my back is winning. I can't lie down or sit down. It's as if the pain wants to stretch my entire body out. I presently need to be an elastic band and stretch myself to the brink and then let go!

This is a pain I do experience almost daily, but today it is much more intense.

It's now creeping into my arms making them numb and causing my hands to tingle and go cold.

Where did this come from it makes no sense. I'm off to do more stretching.

Road of Evil Numbers

There's an advert on telly at the moment, I can't remember which car it's advertising - a car drives along a road and the tarmac is made of numbers.
I find this rather haunting. That was what my world looked like. Everything created of numbers.

I remember walking along the pavement and the numbers consistently shouted in my head. I had to stand on a pavement slab a certain way and at a certain number. Drains, cracks and pavement edging were my enemy!

If I didn't get the right number at the right point on the pavement or road, I would be filled with feeling bad, that evil feeling that would punish me.

There are more memories but at the moment pain is winning and I can't think straight.
