Did You Miss Me

I don't know how long I'll be here today. I didn't make it back to the computer after church yesterday. I also didn't go to the Y this morning or the exercise class downstairs. I overdid it with exercise last week. My back hurt a lot the entire weekend. Doing laundry on Saturday didn't help the cause.
So, I'm going to try to be here long enough to clear out the notifications and see how you all are doing. I haven't forgotten the thankful post. I couldn't sit here long enough to write it yesterday.
I'm not guaranteeing anything, but I'm going to try.
We're also in for a messy couple of days. The snow should start around 3 PM here and last through all of Tuesday. It's going to be a mix of snow and ice. It's not only a weather awareness day, it's a weather alert day. I won't be surprised if my phone goes off before it all starts. It's going to be bad here. They're predicting 3-6 inches of snow for Green Bay. The far northwest corner of the state will get 12+ inches. They're the lucky ones. No ice in their forecast. All snow.
I went shopping this morning for a few things. It wasn't crowded. I'm going to guess most people did their shopping yesterday. I needed to get something for the potluck in the community room tonight. I got beef and gravy and real mashed potatoes off the counter and a package of brownies from the bakery. I didn't buy a lot so it will get eaten or I won't have to bring a lot back to the apartment.
Okay, that's my morning. I'll try to post the health report and thankful post. Try is the operative word. I might get the heating pad out and use it instead.
How is everyone else doing? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

As bad as the storm hitting us will be, I'm also wondering if it is responsible for my back and not just all the exercise I did last week. We have more snow coming on Thursday. I think the only day we don't have anything going on here is Wednesday. But that can change in a blink.

So that's what happened to you, Holy Christ, please help you, thank you, amen. Enjoy your potluck! Take care. I'm going shopping Wednesday and planning to treat myself to a Big Mac & fries, if got time to. I got free transportation to & from pharmacy, so, hoping I can time it right for my treat.

The back is getting better. Snow totals have changed. They're predicting less instead of more. Not good.

@just4him That is good your back is getting better. Sorry about the snow prediction. To me the less the better lol. I would be glad to never see snow again in my life. Hope you get all the snow you want though!

I miss your posts even when I don´t answer
. Sometimes English is a fight. Now I am rereading Jane Eyre after a lot of years while I try to rest in bed. The 4th shot of the vaccine wasn´t nice to me.

@just4him New readings are harder for me. But I know Jane Eyre by heart. I read it in Spanish before I was 10.

Yes, it is cold. Temps will start to rise next month as spring enters but it will still be cold with snow chances well into April. Spring doesn't really start until May when all chances of snow are done until November.
Thank you.

I overdid it too with exercise last week. I did a upper body workout using my Roku tv. And my arms hurt for many days. I finally put some Icy Hot on them and they are fine now. Yesterday I did some yoga because I wanted to try out using a blanket for my knees and it worked, but I may end up getting a new yoga mat.

@just4him I'm so sorry your back hurt after all the exercising! I have been guilty of that many times. Right now though my neck is really stiff and sore but not from exercises. I must have slept on it wrong but boy, it's in pain. 
I hope your back is better!
Reading your post, I am now quite hungry. 
Hope you're doing well! I love the photo too!

@just4him Thank you kindly. I am still dealing with it so I think this will be a few days sort of situation. Hopefully only a few days.

@kobesbuddy That's not surprising that he sat too much.

@just4him Jay has to do special exercises, to alleviate his lower back problems. The doctor said that Jay sat for too many hours, during his years of working.

Your weather doesn't sound good if you're getting ice along with the snow.
Enjoy your potluck tonight. Sounds like fun
I didn't get to spend much time here over the weekend and with today being a holiday and my daughter not having to work, I don't know how much time I'll be here today either.

No, it doesn't sound good. Right now, we're in the beginning stages of the mess to come. We have flurries. I hope it means we won't get ice. We don't need the icy mix. We do need snow.

I wasn't on here over the weekend, I took a break from being on the computer as much.
I'm sorry you overdid it a bit last week. I hope you recover so you can resume going to the Y.
I hope you enjoy the potluck in the community room tonight. Have a blessed evening.

I won't be back at the Y before Monday. The weather will prevent it more than my back will. My back is doing better. Today is a weather-alert day. Snow and ice, mixed at times. Not a good day to be out.
The potluck was fun. They have it once a month. Next month I'll be better prepared. I brought something, but more came than I expected. It was a good group, and I met more people.
