Cleaning and pain go figure

So tonight is my cleaning night. I like to do things like vacuuming and straightening and laundry on Thursday nights so I have my weekends free. I'm probably one of those crazy people who happens to love to vacuum. When I'm stressed there is nothing like taking on the apartment with my Oreck. There I was manned with a clean vacuum cleaner bag and I was ready to have a good time. Now keep in mind that my apartment isn't all that large so it really doesn't take all that long to do plus I happen to love it when you have those neat vacuum lines in the carpet. Yeah I know it's a sickness but what can I say? I start, I get the livingroom and the dining area done so far so good. I move in to do the bathroom floor and the throw rugs. I'm in pain, where is that pain coming from? I stop and I sit a minute. The pain is in my right butt cheek, yes world I said butt cheek in my blog. So why does it hurt? I vacuum all the time and anyone who knows me can testify to that. Not a little pain but a sharp knock the breath out of you, WOW, pain. I have two rooms to go and it's not like I have a heavy machine it's an Oreck, so it's a whole 8 pounds. Come on what did I do wrong? Does anyone else ever have this p roblem, am I so unusual that's it's only me? Are my days of relieving stress with this household chore over? No I say NO I'm going to buck it up and finish the other two rooms. Wish me luck.

Imagine what weirdo's may now be lurking as peeps to your blog because of your "but cheek"... LOL

Dr. Jen here...Is your ass pain on the same side or different side of your lower back pain?? Cause I'm thinkin that is so swollen at this point cause you do silly things like CARRYING A 40 POUND BAG OF DOG FOOD; ALL YOUR GROCERIES IN AT ONCE, yadda yadda yadda that now you've pinched the swollenness and it's letting out in your ass.

I think in order to make a full recovery you should sit ON your ASS in my kitchen from Friday about 5pm until Sunday around 11pm with a short 6 hour break on Saturday between the hours of 10 and 4.

I have a whole box of misc. batting....I can totally make you an ass cushion.

Could be that you trapped your Sciatic Nerve. I do that all the time, nothing to worry about.
And yes I love vaccuuming aswell. I like the fact that the carpet is clean of dog hairs and thread for all of 5 mins after it's done.

Love and hugs Gina xx

Yep - it sounds like sciatic pain. It will probably come and go. Hit the ibuprophen! I understand COMPLETELY about the vacuuming - I am a clean house freak. Quasimodo leg or not, I vacuumed. (I also like to iron but don't tell anyone or they will think that I am a freak...)
