My back is slowly getting better. This weekend was fun and busy and I overdid it a bit but I'm being good now - taking it easy and putting ice on it. I get a cortisone shot for it on Friday.

I have everything I need for my costume for the party this weekend except the fishnet stockings which I'll get tomorrow.

My brother and nieces are coming to visit in two weeks and I had hoped to have a couple of the house renovation projects done by then, or at least farther along than they are. Oh well. I just have to be resigned to getting done what I can. The first part of next week I'll be at my parent's house helping my mom finish a couple of projects so their house is ready for the family visit.
