last thursday, I have a friend that I visit teach. she had become very ill after having a knee replacement and was readmitted to the hospital. she is divorced and about my age. her home was always beautiful..furniture, and many eye candy. the relief society pres went into her bedroom and it was super trashed. she has 2 dogs and a cat that sleeps with her. and they are too lazy to do their business outsidel and they do it all over the house. so the rs pres. talked to her and the so the woman told us to purge the house of all unneeded items. SO last thurs. 4 of us went to town. I was asked to clean the pantry.. throw away all outdated items. and clean the shelves of weevel...so I tossed out about aton of stuff. and had the top shelf empty and was standing on a small homemade stool. Reaching back into the corners..the stooltipped over and flipped me backwards. Oh the pain..it went up my spine. It took me about 5 min to get up off the floor. and wobble to the couch. I worked some more and did no lifting . and then went home.... did I mention this woman is a shopaholic!! her closets were virtually packed with towels and sheets. and rugs... her garage was also packed with boxes of things that had never been opened. so the DI got a wind fall.and dad and I took 1499 pounds of things to the dump. I broughthome some of the cake mixes and other things that were out dated and not wevelley. rather than taking them to the dump..I hate to throw awaay food,
anyway, that afternoon, dad took me to the emergency room to get an xray of my spine and hips. a young PAcame into the room and said you are hurting, theyhe made me move my legs and said your hips are fine. what you have is pulled muscles down the back bone..gave me a script for pain med and muscle relaxiant, and now 6 days latter I am still in pain but only if I stand up. what a waste of time. I guess that this too shall be for my education here on earth. Other than my misadventure. all is well here on the home front... Love ya robin

Ouch! Hope you get feeling better soon. You are amazing though for continuing to work after your fall. Take care of yourself and let Nan, Dad and the boys take care of you. Enjoy laying around reading and eating gummy bears. Love ya Terry
Sounds like quite the cleaning job. I hope that your back gets feeling better soon. That cannot be fun. Take time to relax and get better!
