I have moments of fiesty, and moments of not agony.
What I miss the most, and I'm trying not to complain, but I do miss it so I think it's ok to say it-is being able just to walk into the kitchen for a drink of water, or go to the bathroom. Right now every thing has to be planned around when my back is not in spasm.
I can predict somewhat from my last does of ibuprofen-but I have to have a list of what I want to accomplish with each pill-and start with the most impotant items first in case I can't finish.
Right now we are talkiing tasks like: Feed dogs. Fill water bottle. Go to bathroom (me).
Eating is a fill in activity if I get the list done and if my stomach allows.
Yesterday was a great day_ i ate three small meals. Today it's 6:30 and I've managed a handful of peanuts and a few pork rinds.
Yet, I am getting better, and I am determined not to complain, because I AM getting better.
Nice haiku, Debra. I hadn't thought of this before, but now it seems scary thinking about that space. I have stopped breathing for no apparant reason. That is very scary too. It is a little hard to get started again. ..

A good haiku Deb. Lovely photo with it. I hope you are feeling good now too.
Something tells me I've been here with you ;)
Great haiku. You're really good with those, but then again I think you're good with words.
How's the butt and other problems?
Is it warming up in OK at all?

I love your photo, too.
This is lovely! The photo and the haiku speak together.
Lovely haiku, and photo.
I enjoyed both the poem and the photo.
