Today's accomplishments

I have good days, bad days and okay days regarding my pain. I used to have weeks of pain with a few days of relief, but since I've started making changes and using medication I have more good days now finally. I am in a cycle now where I'll feel great, then 3,4 or 5 days of straight pain in my back. It escalates and will get worse and then good again. It really dampers my mood sometimes, but only because I feel like its never ending. This morning I cried because I woke up in so much pain... I'm not afraid to admit I cried. I cried and prayed and talked to God. Then I made breakfast for the boys, made lunch for Bruce, got Levi dressed and took Bruce to the bus. Then I made coffee for Matt, took a pain pill and cleaned the entire kitchen. I cleaned out the junk, rearranged the cabinets and wiped everything down. I may have started the day feeling bummed because my back was killing me, but I didn't let it get me down. I also played with Levi, we played with mini people and played pretend. I made dinner, cupcakes and did dishes. Now I'm back on the couch relaxing and on the heating pad. Hopefully tomorrow is a pain free day, but even if it's not I'll get through it and I'll be that much stronger. I hope your day was well, if not, tomorrow is a new day, it will get better! God bless!
