Living with the aching back - yep!

Thursday, October 23, 2014


I woke this morning, still with the ache in my back, even though there is no rain in the forecast.  This is NOT a good thing.  It makes me be a little worried about how the winter is gonna be for me.  I am not looking forward to this, let me tell you!
On a happier note, I got a "Good Morning" text from my brother in Kansas, and that was a nice surprise.  I don't know why he decided to do that, but it put a smile on my face.  Of course, it also reminded me that I am not able to be in Kansas this weekend for the wedding, but that is unavoidable, so I can't - can't - let that bother me.

After reading a bit, I got up and got right into our financial crap, and what a pile of crap it is.  But I got it all sorted out, after a couple of breaks - one for lunch (a sausage, egg & cheese croissant) and one just to play on the pute and do my exercises - so my brain wouldn't be fried from thinking of all this.  I think we're going to get through this month.  Nothing that more money wouldn't help with, but we'll be okay.  We will get the most important things paid, and that's what matters.

When my cell phone alarm went off, I stopped for a while (I was mostly done, anyway) and got myself dressed and ready, waiting for Ron to text me that he was on his way home.  When he did text, I walked out to meet him, and then I went uptown to make our deposit and go to dumb ol' IGA.  While I was in IGA, I got us a pepperoni-and-mushroom pizza for our supper.  It was only 8 bucks, and I figured it was a cheap enough supper, and I was in no mood to try to figure out something to cook.
Getting home, Ron helped me carry in the groceries, and we ate our supper while watching Quantum Leap.  Then I turned on the football game and finished up, and cleaned up, the financial crap from the kitchen table.  I can do nothing else tonight, but I have some phone calls to make and errands to do tomorrow and Saturday!

I put my lunch in MFP, but I didn't go back to put my supper in.  I just didn't.  Not sure why - I know there is pizza in there.  Oh, well.  It sure was good!
