Free Writing Exercise 3
Ouch, ouch, ouch. My back still hurts. I think I hurt it weeks ago trying to life a case of DH's Diet dr. pepper out of the shopping cart and into the back of hte car. I keep re-hurting it, forgetting I need to take it easy. I may lift and twist the laundry, a box of books, my own body. It usually goes away and gets better if I walk, but fo rsome reason, thsi time, it gets better only to then find me wakin gup to it being worse. Maybe its my bed, but we can't afford a new one. I shoudl go to a chiroprator but it would hurt me worse to pay all that money! DS prayed for me lat night! How sweet! he is so senesative. He knows when something's not right and he wants you to feel better. he doesn't miss anything. Sometimes he does misinterpet though, thinking we're upset when we aren't. Robins outside my window are so fiesty! Must be looking for mates. I did see one old bird drinking at our make shift bird bath. i need to get out there and clean it out today. Should be warm up and feel like spring today> Wish my back wasn't bothering me so I could enjoy it more. I should still keep walking and hope for the best. Maybe after a few more weeks, if it isn't getting better, I'll break down adn pay the chiroc price. I found relief there in the past. Wagon walkers going by. I remember pulling my boys in the wagon. seem slike yesterday, they grow so fast. i need to wash blankets today. didnt' get to it on Friday. I'm grateful to have a washing machine and dryer, but the laundry mountain never goes away. Breathe in,k breahte out, spongebob is on in teh background. Sandy is hybernating. Wish I could have slept last night. I kept waking up with back pain. Probably woke up Dh a few times, although he didnt' complain. That's probably wehN i shoudl draw the line and go to teh chiro. When this back problem of mine is interferring with sleep and the sleep of my loved ones. Why am I such a tight wad when it comes to me>? If my family felt this way, I would be telling tehm everyday to go to the doctor but when it come sto me, I feel like I should just shut up and take it like a mom. Just another example of how mom's dont' take care of themselves. DS just put away his waffle plate in the sink. I love that they put away their used dishes in the sink, but is it too much to ask for them to load them into the dishwasher. Of course that means the dishwashermust be empty. Clean dishes don't come out unless I remind him to unload. He wants a bowl of tositoes! First I guess he craved sweet sryupy waffles and now he wants salt. Uggg. why is it such a challenge to get nutrition into this family? I think I'll take of the plastic toda. I would love to open window and freshen up the air in here. OF course then I'lls ee how dirty they are and feel the desire to clean them. One thing at a time, don't be overwhelmed Dawn. It gets doen when it gets done. Cat hair on the floor...
times up.
