How did I sleep last night?

What did I do yesterday?
See previous blog.
It is like I am living the same day over and over.
Go to bed at 22:00 and fight PLP until about 02:00 then sleep till 10:00 the next day. Wake up have an egg and coffee. Take a nap. Wash dishes. Eat. Take drugs. Play train game. Watch TV.

Today I am setting a goal of getting all my Arduino stuff out, and getting it hooked up to my Linux desktop so I can start programming the Arduino. I want to make the Arduino be voice activated to control my house.
The prosthesis seems to be relegated to doing walk duty only. In the house, it is so much easier to use the wheelchair.
It really is a pain to put the leg on and take it off. But today I need to go out to the shed to get some cables for the Arduino. If I am going to do that, then I might as well do laundry. I need the leg on for both.
Also today my TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) unit should be delivered. I need to go to school on using it.
My friend (Google) tells me that Doctors and Physiotherapists say to not use a TENS unit for more than 20 minutes. One hour is Maximum. But many people on the internet use it constantly. It seems to me to be whether the pain is muscular, or nerve only.
Sciatica is 100% nerve pain, but most back pain is muscle cramping. 20 minute should be enough to stop a cramping muscle. Stopping nerve pain is different. TENS only works on nerves while it is actually on.

Here is my Arduino project so far...
