Owww, damn!

All this shit with Sandy and I threw my back out this morning. WTF???

Its been coming for a few days now. I felt it. Got out the shower and went to reach for something on a shelf and it was a wrap. I literally couldnt move for 10 minutes. I felt like an idiot. I couldnt stand straight up, I couldnt take a step in either direction, I could barely breathe, the pain was so bad. I actually stood there and cried, trying to catch my breath. I havent thrown my back out in a couple of years - at least not like this - so I had forgotten how painful it was. Because its been so long, I had no meds, so I was resigned to ibuprofen and a heating pad, and it took me another ten minutes to even get into my bed. No bullshit.

The upside is I have the best kids ever. They waited on me hand and foot all day, making tea and soup and getting this and that, turning on the heat, turning off the heat, whatever I needed them to do. I was in good hands.

Luckily I dont have to go to work tomorrow, so I have another day to try to nurse it. I think I will be okay after that. I have a heap of shit I need to do this weekend so pray for some swift healing on my behalf and I will holla at yall on the flip side.
