FINALLY..what a long day..the end of a really long week..I woke up with back pains this morning..it was like a horrible spasm right where my right kidney is located..something said kidney infection to me so when I got up I ground up a cup of cranberries that I had frozen..but that didn't seem to make much of a difference in the spasms or the pain..ouch. I suffered with it for several hours cuz I really needed to be at work with us so short handed (7 person office down to 3..) so after lunch I finally decided to  head to urgent care..wellmeaning friends are concerned about my health so much so they bugged me most of the day.

Turns out it was nothing more than a muscular spasm..the doctor just re-assured me that what I thought was what she thought too. So, a good night sleep with some pain pills and I'll be fine.

How did you do?

 Sorry I am late.  I was so tired by the time I got a space to post I just couldn't I had to get to sleep.  I hope you rest this weekend.  It sounds like you really need it.  Way too much stress woman.  I am heading out of town.  Taking a beading class while my husband goes to a music festival in Pasadena.  I am so excited.  I may not post today's food (Saturday****il Sunday, but I will post it:

I have my food planned out for today (Saturday) and Sunday.  Usually going away meant food free for all.  Not the case.  I am really wanting to have some peace and sanity with my eating and food.  The planning really helps with that.  So there you have it.  Here is to a restful weekend for both of us.  Sounds like we both need it.

Apparently the pain over my kidney was suppose to be  a wake up call for the stress. this morning (Saturday) no pain at all..I really need to just step back and take some breathing room when I get that stressed..I like to say they're putting pressure on a vessel that was completely cracked to begin with..LOL.

You have a restful weekend too..I plan on trying to..
