As we were preparing for an Open House on Sunday, I was giving Pige a bath. While I was filling up a cup with water to rinse her off, I turned ever so slightly and in the process my lower back locked up and I couldn't move. I called for Wifey, but she was on the phone. When she arrived in the bathroom, the water was running with a 2 year old playing with the water and me holding onto the sink, telling her I was stuck. I eventually let myself to the floor and crawled to the bedroom and climbed the bed to lay down for most of the day.
My lower back is still a little sore and it's slightly uncomfortable to sit for extended periods of time. However, I'm able to walk and lay down with relative comfort. I just don't know how it happened, with my only explanation is I'm o-l-d.
So that's why I haven't posted anything recently, but I should be back in the swing of things in a couple of days.

One other quick note I've been meaning to post.
When I went to the post office to drop off our taxes a couple of weeks ago the name of the postal employee at the window was Ben Franklin. What are the odds? I didn't ask him if that was his real name. If I had a $100 bill I would have asked him to autograph it.
I also wonder if his sisters Candy and Muffy are strippers.

Hey, who are Candy and Muffy Franklin? ha ha Glad your back is feeling better today. Li'l Pige can sing you, "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" and make all your worries disapear!
I bet Candy and Muffy Franklin givin' their best effort to 'Take Me Out To The Ballgame', among other things... could make all Jim's worries disappear.
It's official: You now have the I-don't-have-to-help-anyone-move-ever excuse. I'm sorry, I can't help: I've got a bad back. Hello driving the truck guy.
Next up -- knee surgery.
knee surgery would require me going to the doctor
