Okay, this week has either been crazy or insane. My sister and her four kids have moved in with my mom and I temporarily until their trailer will be ready to move into. This is going to take about two weeks. So, it has been a little busy in my house.
Today, I threw my back out somehow. I don't know what I did. I was just reaching for the blanket on the back of the couch to straighten it out and got this excruciating pain. I have to work tonight and tomorrow, so I hope it goes away soon!! I haven't felt this much pain in awhile. The sad thing is I cannot really take anything for it because anti-inflammatories are out and I cannot take narcotics and go to work.
I was thinking and I really want to go on a vacation someplace warm...okay, enough of my ramblings. I have to get ready for the doctor appointment for my sinus infection.
UPDATE: I went to the emergency room and found out I have a lumbar sacral strain in my back. The doctor, whom I'm familiar with, said that I should be doing exercises to strengthen my pelvis and that will prevent these occasional injuries to my back. Makes sense to me. Some muscle relaxants, pain pills, and a few days off work later, and I was feeling better by the time I left.

Ugh, when it rains it pours apparently! I'm glad you're feeling better though. Hopefully you all will get some sunshine soon, and send some down this way when you get it!
I hope we get some sunshine soon! My back is better today, but I still cannot bend over without feeling pain.
I did something similar and as random to my back about a year ago and couldn't sit for two days, but thankfully it went away on its own (with the help of lots of ibuprofin!) I'm glad you're feeling better now!
