Hopefully I’m on the last throes of my back ache. I had a good exercise session this morning, just like before I hurt my back. It’s been more than a month. I went to the doctor, I went to physical therapy, and I did everything that someone should have done when they hurt their back.

it all started a long time ago, cleaning under my coffee table. I was sitting cross legged on the floor and leaned forward with a stack of magazines to put them under the coffee table, and click! something gave way in my back. Since then I have re-hurt it several times, usually minor. This last time, I had a minor injury and then I lifted a box that was too heavy and really ripped it out. That was more than a month ago, and I’m just now getting back to normal.

I’m going to have to be more careful from now on, as I keep getting older.
