Excuses in Paradise

Last Tuesday I got hurt. I bent over to get my stuff out of my locker at work and sprained my back. I've heard of this happening to others but I could not imagine it hurt so bad. I couldn't move, couldn't sit down, couldn't bend my knees. I called Ada, and then work called 911. They helped me sit on a stretcher but it really work. If a guy didn't support my back and hold my arms I don't think I could have done it. I was taken to the ER but not before an IV was inserted that I still have bruises from. Just a pinch my ass. I was given drugs, Tourmonline or something and Valium. X-rays were taken. I couldn't sit down to go to the bathrm without a lot of pain. I had loose bowels 4 times after that, then got my period which I just had 14 days prior. I was given scripts for Skelton, Motrin, Percocet which of course takes the pain away but don't take it. Drives me nuts. I have been out of work since then. It will be a week tomorrow. and that is why I haven't written since then. I have been down, in pain, worried, sleeping a lot. Yesterday there was a Northeastern. Sitting still hurts a little. I have been reading, watching too much useless tv and sleeping. Eating too much also, I am sure. I am out of shampoo. Blah!
