Slow going today
I had a hard time getting myself started this morning. I have been having problems, more so than normal, with my back the last few days. It's causing my left hip and leg to hurt. Since I have had this for a while I am pretty sure it is a pinch nerve. Just like happened to my right side about 10 years ago. I am doing my best to keep it from getting worse. Using ice packs and stuff to keep the swelling down on the disk and being careful what I do. I'm doing my best to deal with this and keep up my walking routine. I need so bad to get some of this weight off and feel better.
Part of what brought this on is probably my doing some landscaping to the front yard. And while what I did looks much better than the barren look it was before, I am paying for it in a way I don't want to. Sometimes I am too stubborn for my own good. With back problems like this I need to realize I can't push myself through and do everything I want all the time....especially not when I have been inactive most of the winter and need badly to get in shape.

Why are you doing landscaping if you all are just renting and looking at buying houses?? I like it though!

Medicineguru Ah...good question. The answer lays with your brother. I been waiting forever for us to start looking at places and he still hasn't so I was finally tired of wanting to have a prettier yard and took on the battle. Well I didn't realize it would be such a battle....I'm getting older, not as in good of shape as I use to be and it rather kicked my butt. *sigh*
