It's gray again today. The weatherman says that later today the sun will return, along with wind. That's means the barometric pressure is changing and my body is feeling every change ... and not in a good way.
Also adding to my current body challenges is my firewood pile. Last Friday, I got firewood and stacked it neatly. I knew I would pay a price for my efforts (but sometimes you have to be willing to pay a price to get things done). The price I am paying is lasting longer and more intensely than I expected. I'm going to have to rethink the firewood trip next year.
I even resorted to taking a muscle relaxant, along with an extra pain killer. I'm not happy with my body today and realize that even if I WANT to do something fun, I really NEED to just rest and recuperate (and maybe make cookies for my wonderful husband -- but I promise I'll use the electric mixer and not do the mixing by hand which adds to the back spasms).
