Scaling back Pennsic
I'm still in quite a bit of pain, although I can move today.
I will not be doing any more ironing or cutting out of fabric, since I'm 100% certain that all that ironing is what threw my back for a loop.
I have 2 under dresses cut out, and will endeavor to sew at least one of them and repair the one I have that has a hole. (by sitting in my chair with my happy pillows behind my back. But I will not do it if it hurts too much. I'd rather hand sew the darn thing than risk further injury.)
I have to go to the lab tomorrow for bloodwork, then will be calling my chiro to try and get an emergency visit in. We will slowly pack the car tomorrow, with an estimated leave time of sometime in the morning on Tuesday. I still need to confirm that folks in camp don't mind helping me setup my stuff because there is no way in hell I can set up my wall tent, my bed, and empty the car. NO WAY. If they cannot help me then I will not go until the weekend when there will be folks around who can help. I'm not an invalid, there are just certain ways I cannot move--and setting up the tent and bed will most likely cause agony beyond words.
I have Motrin and Excedrin for the pain, and will hopefully get some sort of muscle relaxer too.
It's gonna be an interesting Pennsic for me I guess. I'm definitely going to bring my cane, that's for sure.
