Somehow I strained my back and had major pain over the weekend. I ended up in ER on Sunday morning. I can take a lot of pain but it was bad. I have sciatic nerve pain. I went to the chiropractor twice on Monday and again Tues. I will go again tomorrow. I am feeling 80 to 90 % better already. I used to have neck problems when I was a kid but never low back pain. Actually haven't had much of any kind of back or neck pain in years.
Now let me tell you I can loaf with the best of them but this forced rest is not for me! I don't think I could take a life of leisure. I mean really, I like to be doing stuff. And then of course I like to rest to rest when I want to. It's the forced part that kills me. So of course even though it hurts or tires me I try to sneak in some work because I just can't lie around all day and night.
Althought it wasn't probably the best choice in movies, I watched an old one last night called The Day After. (this is the 1983 version) It was redone a few ago and renamed the Day After Tomorrow, Anyways it was a good movie but it gave me weird ngihtmare type dreams. It was pretty graphic in parts. It was the story of what would happen after an atomic bomb hits. Cheesy acting and such but they made their point. Next time I have to remember to only watch happy funny movies when I am laid up.
It will be just me and Marlo this weekend. Natalie is off camping with the girl scouts and Russell & Paul will be white water rafting with the boy scouts. I think we will go to the movies.
Since I haven't been out and about much I don't really have any interesting comments or news.
Still waiting to hear from the surgeon to see if he wants to fix my hernia. Just so everyone knows I am getting all of my health issues out of the way at once and then I am done for a long time.
