"Take it easy, missy!"
First of all I just have to thank all of you for all your warm get well wishes. You guys are the best. :)
So, how's my back doing? Only slightly better. I went to the chiropractor on Monday and was starting to feel better and was able to get around okay, but then today tried to put in a full day at the office.
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
I would have left work to go home at lunch, but my car was in the shop and I didn't have a ride back to pick up my car until the end of the work day. Long story short, by the time I got to my second chiropractic appointment tonight, I was in pretty bad shape. And after the appointment, I was still in a lot of pain. I simply pushed myself too hard and didn't allow for the rest I needed.
Well, I've learned my lesson. I'm taking it easy tomorrow. I might not go into work--not even for just a couple hours like I did yesterday. I'm putting myself on bed rest and ice.
That's it, missy! No more "toughing it out."
In the meantime, I've spent a lot of time surfing the net with my laptop propped up next to me in bed. Here are some cool things I've found recently:

- Hot hair trend for the summer: Milkmaid braids how-to video (part 1, part 2)
- VillaWare Crepe Maker: My mom had a similar pan when I was growing up and she made the BEST crepes!
- Amazon.com Unbox Videos: Download (rent or buy) movies and television shows to watch on your computer. You can also download Tivo-compatible movies to your Tivo box and watch them on your television. Brilliant! I've watched a couple Amazon Unbox movies since I've been laid up.
- MakeUpGeek.com site & forum: You-Tube guru and makeup maven Marlena's site for all things makeup. Fun site to browse--not to mention enabling!
- Cranium Pop 5: This is the game I was playing last week. All of you who love Cranium need to play this awesome spin-off! So fun!
- BellaSugar Warm or Cool Quiz: Determine if the undertones of your skin are warm or cool. This will give you cues as to what colors look best on you in clothing and makeup! Awesome!

Glad to know there was something wrong! I tried to comment 5 times before I figured that out - duh........
glad you were feeling better and hope you get there again - you really need to just let your back rest - you can't fake it with the back! it has to untighten and relax and if you are up - it will just tighten up again!
thank goodness for lap tops huh!?!?
That's right...take it easy, missy!
The crepe maker looks good. I don't even own a waffle iron. My mom used to make crepes too...sweet ones, not savory.
We've downloaded some Unbox videos to our TiVo box. Love it, too! I love Cranium, but I didn't know about Cranium Pop 5. Before we all became parents, we would have game days and play Cranium, Trivial Pursuit, and Scattagories. That was fun.
Wishing you healthy thoughts!
