Another fast ended I started fasting yesterday just because I didn't want to put it off to mid-day today and go into the weekend. Broke the 24-hour fast tonight with what I have been daydreaming about the most while fasting---turkey tacos with soft wraps and lots of diced tomatos. I ate four of them in rapid succession. And I had a Smith's Nut Brown Ale, because I could not find an Old Brewery Pale Ale. Then I visited my inversion table, performed some other health chores, and finally stretched out in front of the TV for almost two hours. I don't do that enough---just lie there and do nothing, and learning to do nothing has been a part of my recovery regarding my back. Some creatures do nothing very well, and they do it with astounding grace. |
Tomorrow I see the trigger point massage therapist at 9:30. That means I have to remember to shave my legs first thing. With all my back problems, that's a major event! I had my second major back crisis three months ago while doing just that. Threw out the fifth lumbar about as far as it could go and couldn't move for a week. $1500 dollars later, I shave my legs with great care!
