I made it to the gym today but as soon as I got there my back started to hurt. It has been getting a bit worse since then. I felt a twinge as I performed my pallbearer duties yesterday, but I thought it would go away.

I started clearing out some of the junk in my dad’s room today to try to get a path to his closet. We haven’t seen the inside of the closet in years. The shredder is already making horrible noises and I have a long ways to go. I’ve found some odd things in there, including a Japanese jigsaw puzzle for kids and a lot of candy we’ll have to throw out. My dad loved buying candy but stopped eating it a few years back.<\/p>\n
We also had several visitors today, including a couple I hadn’t seen in years who are in their mid-nineties! My mom finds all the visits tiring, but so far they haven’t been so bad.<\/p>\n
