Down in my back big time!

It's a whopping 79 degrees outside. 2 campers moved out today. It's a beautiful day outside but I'm stuck inside. I'm down in my back big time! I've spent most of the day in bed and what little bit I was up was only to go to an interview for a summer RV Park. If we canceled they couldn't guarantee they'd still have openings as they were booking up fast. So we went ahead and went hubby learned that he will be here all summer long, so we decided to join an RV Park. It should be great. They have free wifi as well! It also has indoor facilities like a heated pool, whirl pool/hot tub 2 gyms. I'm looking forward to the hot tub for my back! I can also do my water therapy there now instead of paying to go to a wellness center that is 40 miles away! They also have a outdoor pool and all kinds of stuff. It's a really nice park. I will take pictures and post for you all to see once we get there. The spots are small in the new park we checked out, but it's not like we require alot of space anyways. They said that if the spot we choose did not work out once we got the rig there, they would work something else out on one of the spots that they normally don't rent out. Only so many spots are rented out to those they call long term parking, that is what we will be. Then they have spots that are only rented on a first come, first serve basis that is tempary spots. There is a limit on how many days you can stay in those spots.

We also found out that we can volunteer and they will pay us so much per day back for our site. Wow, hubby thinks that will be great for me as it will give me something to help pass my time on the days i feel good. They said that they have many disabled people that volunteer and they give them responsbilities that they can work their own hours and what ever days they feel their up to it. I'm looking forward to spending our summer there. They say they have Rvers from all over that come in and spend a month or so and work and then leave.

After we did our interview i was hurting big time, so we decided it was best to swing on by the ER. I got a pain injection. I was actually surprised how fast they got me in and out. Apparently, they were having a slow day and so it worked out great for me.

Hubby went to work and i slept most of the evening. The pain shot really helped out. My pain pills just were not working. Every once in awhile i have to make visits to the ER for pain shots. The doctor told me I really should find a specialist in the area and get my back looked out. He said i had signs of Inflammation. I told him that i usually get spinal injections every 2-3 weeks that help with that but i hadn't been able to find a doctor in this area that specializes in back injurys. He said he would find me a doctor and have the nurse give me a call in a few days. Really nice guy.
