Hi Everyone,

Well today was not a good day, I mean worse than usual. First I backed into the garage door because I pushed the button on the garage door opener clipping it on the visor. Didn't know it till I backed into it, no damage to the car or garage. I should have known when the back up sensor was going off but I was already moving.
We got our usual "Charlie Brown" tree at the local Drive Inn lot, a small tree with lots of space in between for all our ornaments. The tree is not big or heavy and I can usually bring it into the house without much fanfare. I bent over to grab the tree out of the trunk of the car when I got two sharp, burning pains stabbing me in the lower back, it took my breath away. I was really ticked that my back went out without even lifting the tree. I grabbed the tree and took in the house anyway, holding my breath for most of the way. I am having trouble standing up straight from a sitting position. Now I am on a heavy dose of prednisone and my regular dose of pain killers. I guess I will take a hot bath before bed time. I hope I am able to sleep tonight. Electric blanket is already on waiting for me.
Happy Holidays everyone!!!
