I pretty much ended up doing nothing yesterday. As I was sitting at my desk yesterday morning, doing my normal - drinking my coffee, reading blogs, writing my blog, etc. my lower back started hurting. All across my lower back, almost into my hips. I have absolutely no idea why. The rest of the morning, when I changed the sheets on the bed, did a load of wash for the sheets, remade the bed, it hurt every move or step I made. I made myself walk to go get the mail, hoping it would help stretch it out. I spent the rest of the later afternoon and evening (after making dinner) sitting on the heating pad. Nothing is helping and it's still the same this morning. I can't imagine what I did to cause it. I'm sure it'll be fine tomorrow - just in time for work, but long enough to ruin my weekend 😒
DH drove into town and picked up another piece of quality type plywood (dang, that stuff is expensive!) to do his 3rd, smaller drawer, for his wood work bench and also make some kind of partial open "drawer" that the dust collector will sit on, so it can slide in and out from under the table (to clean it out). He also stopped in the auto parts store and ordered some oil. They never have what he needs in stock (for anything! LOL) and always have to order it to come in the next day or two with their daily delivery.
I really want to make the banana bread, so regardless of how I feel, it's getting made today, LOL. I think I may have one of those heat patches you can stick on your back, so I'll put that on, if I have one.
My half sis got through her step dads funeral last week, which she said turned out nice. She said her daughter put together a really nice slide show. It sounds like yesterday was the "come to Jesus" meeting that the one step brother called, including her (since she's a co-executor) to get this BS between 2 of the brothers, and the one brother (who is co-executor) to stop taking all the stuff from their dad's place (and his wife selling it on marketplace!). I'm sure I'll get the full scoop of how it all went down, when we chat tomorrow. But, it kind of sounds like, depending on how it goes, will decide for her if she's going to follow through with being "co" executor (I say "co" because she knows she will be the one doing ALL the work) or just decline and let the one step brother be executor and let the 4 of them battle this out on their own. She also said part of the reason for the meeting and where it's being held, is so she can then take an inventory of what hasn't gotten taken and so that then the one brother and his wife, will know everything that's now left will be part of the estate and the auction. When he or is wife have been questioned, so far, on the things taken, they are of course lying. Saying their dad "sold" them the stuff just before he died, or that he gave it to them, for helping. When asked where the payment is for the stuff they "bought" the brother then said "well, dad tore up the check I gave him". If this were me, I'd just turn around and walk the hell away and be done with it, haha.
I know the back pain is from a car accident, but what exactly is injured?
ReplyDeleteThey can put a padlock on the door and keep them out! That stealing and lying would not be tolerated!
when my car got rear ended, it hurt my neck and back. I've had problems off and on since and the issues can be anywhere in my back.
DeleteI hope your back improved. I pulled mine badly once, and I had to take naproxen because it did NOT go away. Crossing my fingers your back improved!
ReplyDeleteFeel better. You might like this: I read the title “Stupid Back” and in my lack of coffee state, to mean a return of idiocy. (Then I read the post.)
ReplyDeleteHave a good week!
