I guess, let's see here, I overdid it yesterday with the shoveling?  I could barely stand the pain after I woke up this morning, and every time I moved a certain way, woo-hoo boy, I found it difficult to straighten up again.  But it passed after a couple of hours, and now I am just normally sore and stiff from yesterday's effort.  I am going to take the rest of today off, just to take care of me. 

The weather is beautiful, and it definitely feels fallish.  I have been getting letters from each of the credit card companies I have accounts with, stating that they are raising my interest rates, exorbitantly.  My minimum monthly payments will go up to reflect these new rates.  So I did a little reflecting of my own, called my bank, and they will see what they can do to help out.  I went in and talked to a very helpful gentleman about it today.  I will close out my credit cards if possible, perhaps save a bundle of money. 

And back home, all I can do is walk over to the garage and admire what I've gotten done so far.  Give my back a break for a few days to get over the digging and shoveling.  But really, there's no one else I would want to work in my place.  Perhaps I will be stronger, next time I pick up that shovel.  In the meantime, I can still paint, but not today.
