Owie!

Tuesday morning I got out of bed...and much to my surprise I couldn't stand up.
The rest of this week has been spent in immense pain.
I threw out my back.
For the first time in my life, I threw out my back. I thought this was something that happens to people older than me! 
It has been SOOOOO lame. I blame it on myself, and the way I've been pushing myself to work out, with not enough emphasis on stretching. Yesterday I tried to go to work, and just sitting at my desk for an hour started spasims in my lower back that made me want to throw up and cry at the same time. Working at home today, I finally brought myself to get an adjustment. A world of difference. Thank-fucking-god.

In other news:
We're planning on being completey moved into our NEW HOUSE a week before Thanksgiving!! Yay! This means we'll be able to continue on with last years tradition --- an open house on Thanksgiving day. Last year we had lots of friends and family crammed into our little place, this year we'll have so much more room, and a fenced in back yard too. Did I mention the pool table? D's "man room" is going to be pretty awesome.
I hate to sound like I'm bragging, but I am just so incredibly excited about this transition. Last years move (into our present house) was so last minute, and so stressful. This house is going to truly feel like our "home". A place where we can entertain without feeling claustrophobic, where we can play host to our out of town friends, where I can finally grow a garden, and D can build a little dog house for Lucy...
We deseve this. And I am so thankful. Thankful for every little moment that brought us here.
