Well, I survived my 4am wakeup call, hour drive to work, 8 hour shift, and hour drive back. Promptly showered and crashed in my big bed but woke up very soon after, thanks to all the coffee in my bladder that I drank on the drive home! Oh well, I decided instead to just go to bed early (ie after I type this and its 8pm!) My one day weekend has officially started and I am looking forward to catching up on sleep and having a chill day tomorrow.
Unfortunately, my back/nerve situation has gotten worse. Probably due to being on my feet for 8+ hours at work. The pain is soooo deep in my low back/left butt cheek, if that makes sense? I'm sooo bummed cuz I planned on attempting a run tomorrow, but I honestly don't know if that will be physically possible, it hurts so much! I'm feeling very sad and frustrated right now which I think is being exasserbated by the fact that I am so tired. Tired Tmart = emotional Tmart.
How do we remedy this? RETAIL THERAPY! I drove up to the outdoor mall and limped into Gap because my sis convinced me they had a good sale going on. I ended up getting a pair of jeans, tank top, and long sleeve shirt for 28$ total! Annnddd, the best part was that I didn't try anything on at the store (too lazy and in pain) and it all fits! Funny part is, I hardly ever wear jeans (just sweats and work clothes and running clothes) but I have a small obsession with buying them, especially when they are a good deal. Oh bother.
Ok, Ollie is dead asleep in my lap (too cute!) I'm hoping to feel better physically and mentally in the morning after some good, long sleeps!
retail therapy is awesome. any news yet on the mri?
