Gonna Sleep on the Couch

Well, I think I’m going to sleep on the couch tonight. Last night I slept on a different mattress in the house. And I woke this morning in just as much back pain as I was in yesterday. It was awful. Today I was a bit smarter and downed three Ibuprophins right away. By the time I’d fed the dogs (that’s a trick with a sore back, I’ll tell ya) and showered, the pills had kicked in and I was feeling a bit better, at least I could move without terribly pain.

I’m at work again today. As I sat on the couch this morning with the dogs loving me, I really considered staying home. But I worked Monday this week so I could take Friday off and not use my annual, because I’m going to St. George for a flyball tournament. Ugh! So I didn’t want to stay home and take annual! Not only am I poor on money lately, I’m also poor on annual leave. I gotta conserve.

Maybe i’ll need travel insurance for my trip, in case my back goes out while I’m down there. Ugh. I’m gonna look into a Chiropractor today, I have a recommendation, just been too chicken to call.

The couch is softer, so if I sleep on that tonight, maybe tomorrow I won’t wake up in mortal pain. Costco didn’t have any of my mattress toppers in stock, so I have to wait for delivery.
