Today was one of those days when I didn't know which direction it was going to go. I came here with the ultimate goal of catching up with the notifications. You know that didn't happen as I didn't interact with very many of you today. I am still thankful for today. The Ibuprofen kicked in quickly and is still working, which is good because I changed my bed sheets today and got the laundry done. I still need to make my bed. I'm trying not to make my back flare while I do so, so I'm taking it easy. I'm thankful for the work I did on A Heart Divided today. I finished the last couple of paragraphs on one chapter and worked my way through another. I'll finish that chapter tomorrow. My intention to work on Wilderness Call did not materialize. Maybe tomorrow. You know that tomorrow never comes, right? Anyway, it's been a good day. I did interact with a few of you. Now, it's time to get off the computer. Decompress from a heavy writing day, and get my bed made before I go to bed. Don't laugh. There have been times I just pulled up the covers and made the bed the next day and just slept on the mattress pad. Oh, I'm also thankful for the 7 hours of sleep I got last night. Sleep has been very short lately, so seven hours felt great, even if my back was hurting when I got up. So, there's my day. Now, for the heating pad and getting my bed made. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

I tend to get a twitch in my back every so often and it leaves me in bed flat on my back while it heals. It can take anywhere from a day to a week. I use ibuprofen, which helps somewhat.

Sounds like a steady day overall. You still made progress, even if everything didn’t get done. Good that the medication helped and that you’re taking care of your back. Hope the heating pad helps and you get a good rest tonight.

Not laughing about changing sheets. That's hard work and hard on every single muscle. Go you on your alternate reality work.

I got it made, but it wasn't easy. My back was done for quite a while after that. I'm so glad my back is much better now.
