Apparently I did something to inconvenience my back yesterday. It was hurting when I woke up, and hurting more throughout the day.
It's slowing me down, but I do have hopes of carrying the clean sheets up from the dryer, and also getting to the workbench.
(Edited to add: My back doesn't get upset with me like this very often, which is probably why I don't remember to try the Chirp wheels on it. I used the medium one and then the smallest one, rolling over them and working on relaxing my back and letting it drape over the wheel in an arch. One or two times with each wheel, and the pain is remarkably lessened. It may start up again later, but the temporary relief is a big help, and I think it usually doesn't hurt as much even if it starts up again later. Those things are freakin' magic as far as I am concerned.)
(Edited later to add: it did start up again. I hope it eases off while I sleep.)
(Edited even later to add: well, it did not ease off, so I stood up to get a glass of water and it hurt a lot less when I was standing than it had when I was lying down, and sitting seemed better too, so I have been up for a while longer and all my eBay buyers have gotten their invoices now, which they will be happy about. It's tempting to go up to the workbench and just work for a while, but although it is the cool of the night, the AQI isn't really good enough for me to open the windows and circulate air and bring the temperature down. I will have Extreme Filtering up there soon, which should solve a lot of problems, but I have not yet remembered to order the filters. And now I'm actually feeling a little sleepy, so I'm going to aim for bed and sleep. Tomorrow will involve the packing of many boxes and the photographing of many new pieces for Etsy with markdowns on older work to match. Fingers crossed for cooperative body stuff.)
Is something slowing you down today, with or without ouch?
(Edited to add: And is there something that helps, even a little?)
Edited again to add: And are you up in the middle of your night too?)
