M & I ended up going out to dinner last night, and had a lovely evening walking around. The weather was perfect fall - crisp & cool, with lots of changing leaves.
My back was bothering me so much that I ended up taking an OTC medicine I got in Canada (it's for muscle & back pain). I use these very sparingly, but my back pain was reduced greatly. I also iced my back & added heat yesterday, and I do feel a lot better today. Sometimes it's about knocking down the inflammation & irritation, and allowing things to go back to (mostly) normal. At some point, I need to probably get another MRI & see if the bulging disc/nerve issue has gotten worse, or if this was just a short term thing. I like to be optimistic, but can't imagine it's getting any better.
Nick is hanging out with my BFF + her kids at Rocky Mountain National Park this weekend. I feel so lucky that we have (friends like) family there to spend time with him. He also loves hiking, rock climbing, etc, so it's a perfect opportunity for him & the friend he brought. I hope he brought enough warm clothes!
As for today, here's what I have going on:
- Workout class
- Packing list for our trip next weekend
- Menu planning
- Shopping list
- Stop by the store
- Make dinner
- Do some additional decluttering (inspired by Jackie!)
- Continue to clean up the hall closets
- Dead head some plants
