Hola mi amigos/amigas! It’s been a weather-crazy day starting with frightening clouds welcoming me as I walked out the door this morning to a torrential downpour to sun and now it looks a little chilllly.
I guess the world’s ending or something, whatevs. Anyway, I didn’t have a great start to my day… I mentioned that my lower back was hurting yesterday and unfortunately it hadn’t subsided when I woke this morning. Normally I would push through pain but back pain scares me because a. I don’t know anything about back muscles and b. The back is a PRETTY important part of the body and if it was seriously injured that would royally F things up… and I’m not down with that. I was talking to Branden and he said that sometimes when his back hurts working out will actually help it… but that I should definitely stretch. Another friend mentioned that I should stretch my hamstrings. That all sounds good to me.. so I’m going to go home and do some yoga tonight! I’ve never done yoga in fear of twisting my knee in a fashion that cannot be untwisted but I’m willing to try nearly anything at this point, I’ll just have to be very conscious of what my knee is doing. (not that I’m not already!)
Beyond this silly back situation, the rest of the day has gone kind of normal… just working and whatnot. Food has been a little different as far as timing.. I ate pretty much everything before 2:30 and haven’t had anything since. I normally try to space it out throughout the day but that wasn’t the case on this Tuesday.

This dreary weather is making me crave dreary food but I’m fighting it pretty hard… I’m also stressing a bit b/c I have a lot to do but I have to go out of town again on Thurs! Oh well, this traveling season is short lived so I guess I should enjoy it while it’s here?
Well obviously not a whole heck of a lot to report today. Thank you to everyone who left kind words and ‘liked’ my pictures/blog link yesterday! FYI if you’re a reader and not a ‘Fan’ of my Facebook page, you should totes ‘Like’ my page!
