Today marked a slight improvement, and for that, I'm grateful. It appears that I may have aggravated an old upper back injury from a car accident during a recent workout. Coupled with an awkward sleeping position, it led to a day filled with discomfort. However, I'm focusing on healing and taking it one step at a time.
To alleviate the pain, I've been alternating between ice and heat therapy. Ice helps reduce inflammation and numb the area, while heat relaxes the muscles and improves blood flow . Additionally, gentle walks have been beneficial in keeping my muscles active without overexerting them.
On a brighter note, my son helped rearrange our apartment today, creating a more open and refreshing space. We also are picking out and will be ordering a twin bed for my granddaughter, which she's thrilled about. It's these little moments of joy I love the most in life.
Life has its ups and downs, but I'm choosing to focus on the positives and embrace the journey. Wishing everyone a peaceful and restorative thursday evening.
