Winter Wonderland

The view from my back deck today.
I love it. Maybe it’s because I’ve not lived in many places where it snows, but I find myself always enamored of fresh snowfall.

Better but not good

I’d like to take this wee-hours-of-the-morning moment to state, clearly and unequivocally:
Back pain sucks.
If you’ve ever had a back injury (as opposed to a mere backache) you know what mean. If you haven’t, consider yourself fortunate.
Example: I’m running out of fresh groceries, but I cannot get my shoes & socks on to get out of the house and go to the grocery store. Well, maybe a bit more rest will help with that. At least I can sit up for a couple hours at a time now.
Big stinkin’ deal. At this rate of recovery, I’ll be ready for a triathlon in, oh, maybe 75 years.
[Why am I blogging at this hour of the morning? Well, you try spending all day laying in bed doing nothing. Ya, I have a bit of left-over energy.]
