I got my fix

I managed to stop at Archiver's on the way home from the chiropractor yesterday and soothed my itch to touch and purchase new product. I didn't go overboard - she couldn't quite sell me on a Smash book (my practical nature says I could make my own that's more personalized to me) despite them being 30% off - and I couldn't find the Jenni Bowlin inks I wanted - so I came home with these few things. 

They'll tide me through the weekend. 

I was pretty much in pain during my shopping event, so I'm sure I missed some things. I couldn't bend down to reach things off the bottom rows, so I had Markie doing that for me.

As for the chiropractor - I think his exact words were - "Um. Whoa" 

My neck was out as well as one of my ribs.  I stopped for Motrin on the way home - and after two stores, not being able to find any (why is Motrin so hard to find lately? I've been looking for months) I went with Advil. I immediately popped four (total - 800 mg) and they didn't do a thing. 

To get in and out of the car was sweat breaking and eye wincing. I went to sleep with a Motrin PM and a heating pad. 

I'm about 70% better this morning - I can walk without wincing - but I'll go back for another tweak tonight just to make sure. I'm still sensitive in my neck and shoulder, but I can lift a few things today - which makes laundry doing ever so much easier.  

I skipped story hour only because the idea of getting in and out of a vehicle again makes me nervous.

I have no idea what's for dinner

Wendy went to school today despite the fact that the substitute secretary told her she should stay home and rest today if she didn't feel well yesterday. 

I'm a mean mom and said - sorry, no fever - out the door you go.

'bout it.

I bought 4 of the same items :)
I'm glad you're snapped back into place. That sounds like it was beyond painful.

I don't know whats for dinner either...but its easier for me than it is for you....I have a few that can fend for themselves :) I think I am going to Mall Of America to look for a dress, so that's a nice excuse to stop in at Archivers....
Hope you are feeling better...

Sorry you're feeling so bad. When your back or neck hurts, everything hurts. I know what you mean about Motrin. I recently found a large bottle at Sam's. Why is it when something works great, they discontinue or change it or it is in short supply?
