Yep, I second seeing the doctor. Especially if it's an all day pain. My back pain that I was griping about in the spring turned out to be a slightly slipped disc that would become more irritated when sleeping. I am like you describe, walking around like I'm 80.
With physio, the pain is now waking me up at 5 or 6 am instead of 2 or 3am. So it's slowly getting better.
Best wishes!

Why can people not be bothered to check the lane for pedestrians before they turn? It seems like it's at least once a day now that I'll be walking with LO in a massive stroller and we're narrowly missed by a car. I even get that shocked look like they had no idea we were there. Sometimes, I get the "wave" as if that makes up for almost putting my baby in the hospital, or worse. I try to shake it off, but when it happens five days in a row, I want people to re-take their driving tests! :mad2:

A few times, I've worn a bright orange top. I looked like a mobile pylon and it still didn't help.

I hear you about checking lanes. People are just too self absorbed to consider others. It's all about the, and how they need to get to where *they* need to be. Bright colours don't help. I had a set of running wear that was neon green. Honestly, I looked like a walking highlighter and they still didn't seem to see me.

These are $261.00 shoes!!!! I will get my money back but I would rather have my shoes.

That same thing happened to me too with a $300 michael kors bag. Seller tried to argue that i picked it up when the tracking number proved that it didnt. Thankfully, i got my money back and bought my bag in store like i should've anyways.

i ended work today...so I know I get EI so I have all my paperwork, my ROE - everything I sit down on the computer cause it takes 60mins to apply. Then I say start the application and I get ....System maintenance. The Application for Employment Insurance benefits online is inaccessible due to a system maintenance or an upgrade. We expect that it will be accessible on October 4, 2014 at 14:00 Atlantic Time.
Then I see he Application for Employment Insurance benefits online will not be available from 10:30 p.m. on Saturday, October 4 to 7:00 a.m. Monday, October 6 (Atlantic time)due to a system upgrade. We regret any inconvenience this may cause.

why oh why..

Another new neighbour moved in. She has two small kids and seems nice. Today one of her kids is crying in the hallway. Only for 2 mins or so while they wait for the elevator, no big deal.

The previous b****hy neighbour however doesn't seem to like this and is blasting her music again.

Yeah because blasting your awful music is what the kid needs to stop crying

The folks being clueless about getting necessary things done while unnecessary things get their attention. I may have to make noise about stuff going into the garbage (I'm the one who keeps seeing the fruit that turns while on the counter and I cannot stand it).
Last night I put the extra produce baskets, box and bag into cold cellar as the temperature was dropping. Mom just brought the heavy bag of apples back to the dining room and will attempt to store in fridge. Words fail me but emotions are just about to erupt...

Brand new pair of socks ruined with holes in the bottom the first time wearing them... I think I need new sneakers... On the plus side we shopped till we dropped and got some great deals. I may post a brag later but I'm too sore and tired right now.

^anastasia1009-dream job says so much! Great to have that experience in your career. Now in SK, you'll be able to tell anyone moving to Ontario about great dentists you know. ;) And your cats are going with you-it will be interesting!

Any chance you have seen your Fortino's person in your building? Curious to know if there is a date for when the Eastgate Sq. store may transition into that No Frills Superstore (or maybe the store is waiting another year for the Cent. Pkwy construction to finish).

I went to Shoppers and had what seemed to be an amazing trip and then I got home and realized that the cashier didn't take off the $4.49 I spent on OB tampons but had taken the FPC from me :shock:.

I was in at around 4pm and now it is 1am so I am guessing tomorrow I will be too late to go back in and say she missed the coupon. Should I go in and say the cashier didn't ring in the coupon (I am scared that they'll say I am sol) or should I just go in and return it and get my money back? Any advice?

You should have phoned in after you noticed the coupon wasn't taken off and ask them to give the coupon back or refund your money.

Freaking mother is starting to really pi$$ me off. Lately she has been ragging on my DH spending the day in bed, out with his friends all night......blah, blah,blah. He has only 28-30 days at home and he has a lot of catching up to do with his friends. He and I mark in days where I want to do specific things which he gladly does. I mean, if I am happy with our life, why the h*ll should she ***** about it? Just because she is unhappy with her marriage doesn't mean she should project it onto mine?
