There is nothing more pristine than the early morning after a spring snow. The snow is glistening on the wet tree branches with a backdrop of turquoise and baby blue. It was so peaceful on my jog down to Bunkie’s…just birds chirping and mist rising up from the snow blanketed yards. Â Beautiful!
My hubby has boxed and shipped 1 too many cases of vino. Â After he picked the boys up from school he was picking up a piece of paper from the floor and Wham…there went his back. Â He almost had to crawl to the car to get the critters from the groomer (The dogs are gorgeous). He texted me at work to fill me in and when I called you could literally hear the pain in his voice. Luckily the boys have friends on both soccer teams, so transportation to and from practice was handled. Dad rested his back to no avail. When I got home he couldn’t get up without help. Â I have so much sympathy for anyone with back pain…it truly sucks! Anyway, we got him upstairs…iced his back…administered motrin…and got the boys into bed(I’m not sure if they brushed). He is a bit better this morning…bent 1/4 of the way forward and twisted a 1/4turn to his side…it hurts to watch him move.
He has an important account to see in Boulder this morning, so we will try and manage to do that without inflicting more injury.
I am off today…so my plan is to get our house in shape…with the dryer out we are looking like “Hoarders”. We have too much stuff and not enough storage…I’m sure most of you can feel my pain. Also, I am admittedly a procrastinator these days and need outside motivation to get my “House” in order. We are expecting company next week..a friend, her husband, their 9 year old daughter…and their 5yr old twins.  That should be my motivation….Let’s hope so.
The repairman is here and the verdict is…the motor went out on our LG(Life’s Good)dryer. Really????
Two soccer games tomorrow and I am working….hopefully Dad’s back will be better. The boys are bummed that I will be working since it is the first of the season and I have never missed a game. I am sad as well…We may have to enlist Uncle T. and Aunt Blondie to cheer from the sidelines. We have to cheer for both teams and can not rip on the refs at the risk of being asked to leave the game. Â That is a bit tough for fans like us…
I am off to get the heating pad, take a shower and attack this house!
More prayers for Japan and all that are in need..
God Bless,
