This is day six of my back being out.

It usually doesn't last this long. It's driving me crazy.I've tried everything, ibuprofen,muscle relaxers, heat, stretching, lying in bed, walking- nothing is working. I'm sorry I haven't responded to everyone's comments. We don't have a normal desk chair. I use a folding chair with a thin cushion on it. So, every time I sit at the computer, I get shooting pain in my back. I'm at my wit's end. I have so many things to do. I'm feeling overwhelmed. At least Mookie seems to be feeling better.
I leave you with some cuteness to brighten your day.

Your pet pictures are so cute. How is Mookie doing? Still no surgery, right? Still feeling under the weather? How many questions can I string together in one paragraph?

I plan to put my loves on my blog soon. Brace yourself for pet jealousy because my pets be da bomb. I just typed "da bomb." I must move from this grammar wasteland.

Oh, Torrie, I'm sorry about your back. That really sucks. I don't have a proper computer chair, either, and I know I'm flirting with disaster by parking my ass in a plain ol' wooden chair, as much as I've been blogging lately. My back has been OK for nearly a year, now, no real bad episodes. I won't annoy you by suggesting all of the things you've already tried. I hope something helps soon.

Oh, Torrie... I'm so sorry your back has been out for so long. I've been in that situation, and it's not good.

Are you able to see a chiropractor? I saw one for a while a few years ago -- I called him my 'chiro-cracktor'. Although I didn't see him for very long, he gave me some ideas to help me with my back problems.

I'm sorry I can't do much more to help. Have you tried a nice hot shower, bad daytime TV, someone to take care of your every need and some ice cream?? That sometimes works...

Gentle, non-ouchy hugs to you, dearie.

(Oh, and my desk chair is currently a folding chair as well. Not real conducive to surfing, is it?)
