Today, I had to go see my chiropractor, Jason, and
get a treatment and get fitted for orthotics.
Then, I had to come back to Ajax, Dave picked me up, and we went to
Sentinel Storage where I paid for six months’ worth of storage. Then, Dave took me to the Shoppers Drug Mart
in Oshawa where I picked up the rest of my prescription, a birthday card for
James, and his birthday present. After
that, I came back home to the hotel and paid some bills.
I’d had a rough night last night because my lower
back was killing me for some reason, so I put some ice on it, popped some
powerful pain pills, and hoped for the best.
Today, as luck would have it, I am able to move around again!
