Aaaargh! My stupid painful back. 17 months ago

I spent ALL yesterday on muscle-relaxers and valium on a heating pad in bed! Directly behind my right lung there is a dull ache that turns into a scary, shooting pain whenever I get up, laugh or breathe wrong.

Today was odd. I started out just to research “Pods” for my upcoming move across the country and would up spending a long time (maybe 2 hours?)on the phone with the guy getting it all set up. It’s not cheap to use them to store and move all your stuff, but it sure is a simple and convenient way to do it!
