Wow! I hurt. A lot.
Yesterday, I spent a couple hours sorting through a couple big bags of pine cones. I mean, pine cones ... they are light. It's not like I lifted heavy weights or did a huge amount of work. I just picked up a pine cone, cleaned it and put it into a box. About halfway through, I took a break and took 15 mg of my pain medication. Feeling better, I went back to my pine cones. When done, I sat down and realized that the pain had increased. I took another 15 mg of my pain medication (I'm prescribed 30 mg a day, as needed, so this was within a regular dosage). I could barely lift my arm the rest of yesterday.
Even today, I'm still paying the price with residual pain. Haven't done a thing all day. No pine cones or anything. Rest is the only activity allowed (except for watching the NASCAR race on TV tonight). So, I'm paying the price today. All because of those pine cones. Kind of frustrating.
