A rollercoaster of a day

[cornerofmadness]

For the last two days I've woken at 6 AM with my back in a spasm (the bed was rated for 20 years, it's year 18 and i think it's contributing). It was so bad this morning I could barely get out of bed (it helps if I walk around) My blood sugar isn't responding to the new pill either. sigh.

But the afternoon was so much better. So that dress I bought on Etsy which was supposed to be here by the first week of April was pushed back to the 12th. Finally on the 25th I asked, where is it. Oh it's not supposed to go out until May 6th. Sooooo a month after my initial time?!? As soon as I said that, the thing was mailed the next day. It it nice? Yes. Does it fit great...no but that's more my body than their issue. The skirt is big, fine. I can fix that. The jacket is short. I'm long waisted. I'm going to have to wear a black camisole under it but that's okay. I do like it.

And then Spectrum showed up in the apartment complex. i don't have time to get switched over before I'm gone for the summer but I have his name and phone number so in August/Sept I'm switching.

My phone got fixed again (twice in 4 days)

And I got angry and I called my orthopedic surgeon about the knee and said look NO ONE is calling me back to schedule the pressure test for my leg. 10 minutes later, there they are. I'll be going in two weeks.

Let's continue with the Music Monday Alphabet theme with sharing songs that begin with a certain letter. Feel free to chime in with your favorite song(s) that follow the weekly letter. Give me something to smile about after a day like this. This week's letter is D

Oh, ouch! I fully understand the back spasm and bed that needs to be replaced. I had been avoiding going to bed because I knew it was going to be hard to get to sleep and painful to get up. I hope you get that sorted soon - sleep is important! And not suffering from back pain is too!

Does chiro help you at all? I used to think it was baloney, but I found this woman who is magic. I know it doesn't work for everyone, but wow, she really helped me, so I always recommend.
