I have been so busy!
It seems like that is all I say here anymore, but it is true.
Yesterday was spent in pain. I didn’t get much sleep the night before. On Sunday night, we noticed some siding had come down off the side of our house due to the windy day we had. Unfortunately, we didn’t have a ladder long enough to reach the problem pieces. We had to wait til the next day to do anything about it. I kept hearing one piece of siding flap against our house all. night. long.
Every once in awhile I also have terrible night sweats. I think it is from the Prednisone. I wake up and am DRENCHED in sweat. From my scalp to my feet. I literally have to get up and put on dry clothes. It is miserable. Most times it takes me awhile to fall back to sleep. This happened early in the morning around 4:30 am. I didn’t sleep well after that.
This past weekend I started feeling some muscle tightness and pain in my mid back. I wasn’t sure what was going on, but figured it would pass. It didn’t. Yesterday found me feeling as if i couldn’t move from my shoulders to my hips. I made it through work, and made an appointment to get in for a massage that evening.
Austin and I went and picked up a ladder and since I wasn’t much help, Austin’s brother-in-law came over and helped him put the siding back up. I headed off to my massage instead. 🙂
My massage felt great, and afterwards I went to Michael’s and picked up some flowers and crafty stuff for the wedding. Got home and watched Hitchcock with Austin and then went to bed.
I slept a lot better last night, but for the second night in a row I had the night sweats. My hair was even wet.
This morning when I woke up, my back was hurting again. : / I have just been taking ibuprofen off and on and practically bathing in Sombra.
In non-complaining news… This morning, we signed papers to refinance our house! We got a super low rate, it is definitely the time to be buying or refinancing.
Afterwards, we came home and I became a sewing machine! I sewed a little bow tie for my nephew to wear as the ring bearer in our wedding. I also have been working on sewing cloth napkins (again for our wedding) and finished another 15 or so more. I had to get to work afterwards or I would have gotten more done.
I went to work, gave a few massages, then came home and did a bit more sewing. That is, until I ran out of thread! Time for a run to the craft store!
Tomorrow, I have work and then Austin and I have our Wednesday night dance lesson. Time for bed now!
