Bad start to 2015

Okay, I hope my year does not go like the first day of this year. I woke up to tickles and hugs from my son & hubby. Then my husband told me he wanted to knock some stuff off his Honey - Do - List  this morning. He hung some curtain rods in the kitchen for me for an upcoming DIY project, and then went into the garage to move my vintage china cabinet into the dining room. I wanted to move my china cabinet into the dining room to help me decide what color to paint it. It takes me forever to decide on a paint color, and having the china cabinet in a place that I look at everyday seemed like a smart thing to do in hopes that it will speed up my decision making. This is when things went bad for me. I went outside to help move the cabinet. My husband and I grabbed the hutch, I took one step and felt a horrible pain crawl from my lower back right up to my right shoulder blade! We put the hutch down immediately. I pulled a muscle in my back and couldn't even stand back up. Ugh!! I've moved heavy furniture several times. I know how to move heavy things safely. Yet for some reason I put patience & safety aside for the easy thought of simply " get it done ". Needless to say, I got nothing done today, because I was laying on the couch for the remainder of the day with a heating pad and ibuprofen. Not a good start to the new year.
