Gentle Readers . . . and Maxwell,
I'm sorry it's taken me so long to check on your Lake Junebug reservations. The day that the post appeared about the glories of a Junebug vacation, I bent over to pick up Lappie, and WHAP! PAIN! Terrible pain in my lower back. Carol! Help! ARRRRRRRGH!
Carol came running to smack me in the head hard enough that I wouldn't notice how much my back hurt.
It didn't help.
My doctor said it's a pulled muscle. I'm on muscle relaxers, but I'm not quite as relaxed as I would like to be. It gets better every day, though.
Be patient with me and I'll get my castle on Lake Junebug ready for visitors.
Infinities of love,
Janie Junebug
Look at this doggy who wants to show off his teddy bear:
Oh no! That kind of pain is the worst! I pulled a back muscle while bending to tie my shoes. I hope you start feeling better and that the muscle relaxers "relax" you more. Sending gentle hugs.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm starting to feel better.
DeleteOh no! I hope you feel better soon. I am battling a bladder infection--so I hope we are both better soon.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute picture! :)
Bladder infection? Yuck! So sorry to hear that.
DeleteMuscular spasms and the associated pain outsucks Dyson.
ReplyDeleteI do hope you are feeling MUCH better quickly. And am very glad that Carol is still with you.
I like that--outsucks Dyson. I have to remember that.
DeleteOh, that's a bummer! I hope you feel better soon. Back pain is so terrible!
ReplyDeleteI'm already cutting back on muscle relaxers. I don't need them as much now.
DeleteThat is the sweetest picture. Hope you feel better!
ReplyDeleteI love the photos at doggo.com.
DeleteFor me, pulled muscles feel best with a heat-pad, but this is not medical advice. However, I'd try that before I'd take a muscle relaxant.
ReplyDeleteWe need our backs for just about everything, don't we? Sending healing thoughts~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The healing thoughts are going straight into my heating pad. I used it first but it wasn't enough by itself.
DeleteI know a few people who have back pain and it can be very debilitating. I hope yours recedes quickly. And like EC, I'm glad Carol was there to give you a hand.
ReplyDeleteLove that picture - the dog on the right looks like he's trying to figure out how to get that toy!
I hope that the doggy showing off his teddy bear didn't drop it.
DeleteTwo words: MOIST HEAT. Get a wash cloth, get it wet, wring it out, and put between you and a heating pad. Works SO WELL for back pain after the first 24 hours (when it's supposed to be ice.)
ReplyDeleteGood luck! Don't try to get back to normal too soon, or you will just delay it! Spoken as a voice of experience.
Okay. I will try the moist heat. Maybe that will help this episode come to an end. Thank you.
DeleteOuch. This is the worst and takes patience and forbearing to recover. Please be patient and forbearing.
ReplyDeleteThe picture is wunnerful.
I have to be patient and forbearing or Carol will smack me.
DeletePain sucks at the moment I have bursitis in my right shoulder and right hip
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear that, Jo-Anne. The last couple of years you've really suffered from physical problems.
DeleteACK! Back pain is horrible. I hope you feel better!
ReplyDeleteYour smiling face always helps, Martha.
DeleteI once threw my back out pulling the Thanksgiving turkey out of the oven. I feel for ya. Hope it softens up soon!
ReplyDeleteI would not want to be standing over an oven when my back decided to give up.
DeleteLake Junebug looks good to me! Hope you make a good recovery soon.
ReplyDeleteLake Junebug gets a little stinky sometimes.
DeleteBack pain is awful, Janie! I hope you are feeling more comfortable by now! The picture of the dog with its stuffed toy is darling!
ReplyDeleteI am better. Thank you for your good wishes, Louise. I love the doggy photo, too.
DeleteHang in there. He better not drop his toy mid drive. The world will end soon after, or at least that will be the case with my brother's dog.
ReplyDeleteI'd be afraid that if a dog dropped a toy that he'd jump out of the window to go after it.
