A Coincidental Reminder

It seems I've been neglecting my writing these past few years!  I started this blog with the intention of putting thoughts to paper, and I ended up forgetting that this blog even existed. Such is life.  It gets busy and then it gets real and then one day, your son calls and say "Hey mom, check out my blog" and I'm suddenly reminded that I too, had one at some point!

So here I am again.  A few changes since my last post.  A few new jobs since, and a husband who was injured on his last job so it left us a little worse for wear but we are surviving as best we can.  It's hard for my husband to look for work with an injured back so he takes T3's constantly to try and cover his pain. I think all the T3s are hurting his kidneys.  Pain medicine isn't really good for you long term.

Does anyone have any experience with pain medication and the different types out there?  What are the best recommendations for pain management without becoming addicted to narcotic prescriptions?
