It has been a few days since I reinjured my back and I'm getting seriously cranky about it. I had to call my neighbor/plumber yesterday for an exploding irrigation line, and we both walked around the yard with our hand on our back, comparing symptoms, physician advice and medication recipes. Ridiculous. And neither one of us is even 50 yet! About all I managed to do was watch television, almost nap (I can't sleep during daylight, but I can remain still and useless for a long stretch at a time), watch basketball (GO LAKERS!) and fold laundry. Oh joy. Oh, and I did manage to take an enormous number of photos of birds, in addition to the baby skunk that has begun visiting us every evening. What in the world I will do with the photos, I don't know. Discovering the use of many of my camera's features was good, so it wasn't time completely wasted. My feet have a lovely tan, too. OK, so it wasn't all so bad waiting to get better.
Today I'm going to work on an art project, even if done from a prone position. I have a couple of new ideas for art dolls and even for wonky paper dolls. I'm eager to see what my friend Debbie has in store for online sharing and learning (still trying to get over my fear on that!), and am determined to do something worthwhile as I sip coffee and wait for the return of the plumber. He's the funniest guy in the world, so I actually look forward to burst pipes. :-)
