Oops I did it again

I missed my weekly Monday post again.  Pretend it’s still Monday and this is my post.  I have been half incapacitated for the past two days.  You see, I played golf on Sunday and that evening I was in such intense back pain that I had to use an ice pack and pop ibuprofen.  That pain started about halfway through 18 holes of a pitiful display of golf.  I blame the back for my score.  I should’ve stopped once the back started to complain but I kept going and I’ve strained every muscle I think I have. And tested my resolve to continue to own golf clubs.

I went to work on Monday.  I was able to shuffle around for most of the day.  Last night I moved to a heating pad. Most of my sleepless night I was in pain.  A slight roll onto my side caused excruciating pain and then I would be wide awake.  This morning I could barely stand up. 

After popping some ibuprofen and a hot shower I could shuffle around the house.  But there was no way I was going to drive into work, I messaged my boss, it is a WFH (work from home) day.  So here I am with heating pad on back and answering emails.  I messaged the Doc and begged for some muscle relaxers and he called in a prescription.  Waiting for that to be filled.

This sucks.
