Strenuous Sleep

Do you know what I hate? Pulled muscles. Ouch, they hurt.

And the weird thing, sometimes I pull muscles while doing strenuous activity....but mostly, I just wake up and have some crazy pulled muscle. Really, what am I doing in my sleep that makes me pull muscles like this? It's killing me. When I was in 6th grade, I woke up at about 4am, and lifted my head and *snap*...I couldn't move. It was one of the scariest things in my life. I had to scream for my mother. When she found me, she thought I was paralyzed. Turns out, when I woke up and lifted my head, I pulled a muscle in my neck. It took hours to get out of bed and to the doctor. I didn't go to school for 3 days, no gymnastics for weeks. I couldn't move my head properly for over a month. All because of that strenuous sleep.

I woke up today and my arm hurt. Maybe I just slept funny...right? Well, it hasn't gone away yet. It is so odd, I have never pulled this muscle before, it hurts all the way up through my right armpit. It hurts to move my arm, and to lift or push anything. I am simply thinking about work today...it's gonna be a beast.

Not only do I have work, but Vacation Bible School (VBS) starts tonight and goes through Wednesday. Truly I can't wait for VBS to be over because it has been so much work. Somehow I was placed as the VBS "director." I didn't even start as the director, but when we decided to work with another church (so we might get 14 kids, not 7) I was the one who coordinated the two churches. Guess somehow that made me the director. Yay!

So not only will I be working today, but have to go to VBS where I am in charge of the 3-5 year olds.

Guess I will have to resort to yelling more...
