This morning I woke up with some lower back pain, hopefully it was a result of sleeping wrong. My other theory is that I’m trying to exercise more and on Monday went for a couple minute long run. Seems unlikely that a short run would have this effect especially two days later, but you never know, the body can be a strange thing. I’ll lay down as much as I can today and go to physical therapy this afternoon. PT is for the little princess, not me, we’re working on strengthening her neck muscles and loosening up one muscle that pulls her head left. She’s been doing great lately though, we’ve got her a bed with a hole for her head because as the slogan goes, “flat beds make flat heads”, and she’s been sleeping on it without any problems. Joint pain like my back could be a result of all this could weather we’ve been having, I live in a location that can grow citrus and this morning it was 23 degrees. That cold at all is ridiculous, but even less expected in early December. This cold weather is likely a result of the big storm that went up to North Carolina this Fall. There was also some rain last week that shifted us to the cold, that sort of thing will give a couple days cold, not freezing temperatures for a week. Soon the cold should be gone, or at least back to Southern “cold” temperatures and I would love for it to stay that way for the rest of Winter. Less than a month ago is when I planted my grape vines, this cold can be bad for them if they woke up from hibernation. We’ll see what’s still kicking in the Spring.
