Bummin' .............. Vent inside

[Terry]

My back is so sore I cant do anything. I suspect that all that wonderful stretching I was doing gardening is to blame. DH is on vacation and although we didnt have any special plans other than puttering around the house and take it day by day it really stinks that I cant even do that. As weird as it sounds I was looking FORWARD to puttering around the house. Walking and exercising is out of the question. Reading and television are my options for entertainment.

And you know what? As I sit in front of the TV with a heating pad, all there is on TV are FOOD commercials. Good thing there is absolutely nothing in mother hubbards cupboards at the moment or I would be fighting that too. Burger King and McDonalds are evill................ worse yet........ Dairy Queen and their ice cream cakes............. UGH!

Need to send someone to the video store today I guess so I dont have to watch those ads all day long.

Thank you for listening to me rant. Time to creak out to the kitchen and have some egg salad for breakfast, You dont see many commercials on TV for egg salad!

Oh, you poor thing! I feel so badly for you. Do you belong to a gym and would you be able to go sit in the jacuzzi? That really helps.....

Well, I'll be around a lot today, so I'll try to post entertaining threads for you to read.....

Some things you could try:

- read every post in the foods forums and figure out what you would like to try next.

- Get dh to paint your toenails (oh, really, it's what he LIVES for! Honest!)

- Have dh buy a bunch of fitness magazines (like Self, etc) and read every article.

Hang in there, babe!

Ugh! Dairy Queen. I used to love Dairy Queen, now I must ignore .

Terry, I hope you feel better soon. You should try the Bengay back patches. I had sciatica at the end of my pregnancy and it still flares up every so often. These really help.

Hope you feel better!!!

Re: Bummin' .............. Vent inside

Those food commericals mostly disgust me now. I guess I've lost most of my addictions.

BTW - Try Icy Hot patches for your back. They're great!

Re: Bummin' .............. Vent inside

They burn for a few, but its a refreshing relief

Re: Bummin' .............. Vent inside

Thanks for the responses and suggestions! I suppose everyone hates being incapacitated. I feel almost claustrophobic when I cant move around.

<Adding icy hot/bengay patches to list of things to pick up today to go with the movies>.

I have some capzasin cream that hubby used a while back but he couldnt put any clothing against it when he applied as it burned too much and the burn didnt go away. I have teenagers coming in and out and a lack of clothing doesnt sound like a good idea.

Oh a jacuzzi........... Good reason to belong to a gym!! ..... nope....... Curves offers no such frills. LOL Hubby painting toenails.................. LOL Now THAT would be something to watch! I will be floating around the board to check out a few places I havent been.
