I've been planning on leaving back out on the road from this truck stop this morning. Now I'm not so sure I'll be able to do it. My back is better than it was but is still hurting quite a bit and I'm not sure I could stand to sit in the driver's seat for any length of time. The truck also needs fuel and I am wondering if I would even be able to walk around the truck well enough to fill the tanks. This sucks.
I have enough vicoden and flexeril to last today and that's it. I may just stay here today, take the pills, and let the back rest one more day before leaving out tomorrow. It probably won't make the boss happy and definitely won't make my wallet happy, but I'm not sure I really have any other choice right now. I feel that if I climb into that driver's seat right now I'm just going to end up stopped someplace else possibly unable to even get out of the truck again.
I'm not sure how much difference one more day will make, but the rest and drugs have helped a little each day so far. Maybe one more day will make some difference. I don't know. I do know that my back doesn't feel like I need to be driving yet.
