Back'n down

 "Alice"
2001

Not that it matters, but I really feel like crap again today. Ya see, I went off to Walmart and HEB yesterday with my big ol' shop'n list. While I was in Walmart, my back gave slap out on me. And I weren't even half way through my shop'n list. There weren't no place to sit down, so I headed to the closest check out....us'n that shop'n cart like a walker. But I still had 2 more stops to make before go'n to "da house". The most important was the HEB grocery store for my donuts and chicherones. Then I had to carry fortyeleven bags in "da house". I was finished, done, kapoot for the rest of the day. So for supper last night I prepared a plate full of donuts and chicherones, topped off with a quart of milk. Damn I were thirsty. Belly rumbled all night long.


Well, today my back ain't no better. Although I have been able to move around a little better than yesterday. And then, after I put the trash bag out in the yard, here come that damn goat an' bite a big hole right in the side of it. Trash all over the ground.....damn goat.

UPS come by and visited for a minute this afternoon. Brung me a brand spank'n new TV antenna. Said tomorrow he would drop back by with a brand spank'n new battery charger for me. Nice guy huh???

  5. I, too, have a bad back. It sure has been bothering me lately but not as bad as your back. Sometimes I think it is the change in the weather. My wife's joints are a better weather predictor than the TV wearhermen.

  6. I am noticing my back is a lot worse this trip home. I have too much moving of stuff to do to get down in my back, but it's going a lot slower than I had planned. First on my list of things to do when I get back is a program of stretching and exercise to see if I can fix this, or if it's time to call in the medical establishment. And I am waaaay younger than you. :)

  7. What I learned from back trouble is that most back trouble comes from weak stomach area muscles. Most of your back support comes from the torso muscles in and around your stomach area. Yep proper exercise of the torso muscles helps a lot. It even helps my "slipped disk" problem.

  8. Billy Bob has anyone ever told you that chicharrones and milk do not go together? No wonder your belly rumbled.

    Hope your back gets to feeling better. Trust me try a zero gravity chair...it has been a lifesaver for me.
