Inch by inch still getting things done, as I wince my way around the house. Stupid back is still stupid. Laundry and dishes wait for no one. I've been trying some stretches and acupressure points, with limited success, ditto assorted healing salves of various types (arnica, Voltaren, CBD...). Went out for a bike ride, to keep some gentle flexible motion happening. Planning on taking a walk around for a bit after dinner, also for gentle exercise. This is exhausting, and came on for no reason at all!

today's gratitude - Yesterday Vestia sent me two little treats in the mail. Some deep burgundy yarn for miniatures, and a carved bone horse head bead... now I want to make something from it, maybe a mixed media brooch?
