February 1, 2017

It was all I could do to climb out of bed this morning.  My back was in shambles.  I tried to stretch and work out the kinks, but it only seemed to aggravate it more.  I am having a really hard time sleeping through the pain now.  It's starting to get me down.  I did a lot of research online about it today.  I've got to figure something out right away.

I'm sitting in my comfy bed as I type this.  Lining the hall are 22 bags full of items to be donated!  22!  Before I started cleaning things out, I bought a bunch of new totes and bins to aid in my organizing.  Well, I haven't used them, and in fact I have now emptied out more totes to add to those sitting there waiting.  I have so many cleaned out, nearly empty closets in my house.  It makes my heart sing!  I also spent hours organizing the upstairs book shelves.  It's like a little library now, and I can't wait to start reading all the hand-me-down books I've been acquiring.  Mom and Dad gave me a box of books awhile back that they were getting rid of and I finally went through it today.  I found a book that my grandmother used in her high school English class.  I loved seeing her name neatly written on the inside cover.  I filled half a shelf with old, amazing books.

I made pancakes with strawberries, eggs, bacon and sausage for dinner.  Then I cleaned it up and got into a hot bath with Owen and Lance.  It was semi relaxing.  Ha ha.  It felt nice on my back.  I've started to wonder if that would be a good way to start the day!?!?

Well, my eyes are drooping a little.  And tomorrow is a rather big day.  I have a packed schedule and it starts early.  ...I just dozed for a minute, hands hovering over the keys.  I'd better call it a night.
