Ouch!


I was doing my daily morning yoga stretches when suddenly something POPPED!!! Ouch!

This is Pancake demonstrating the Downward Dog that caused the Pop.
 
My back has been acting funny for a long time but I just figured it was Age and Life. Sigh..
Well, it probably IS Age but I think it's also something else.
 
So I have consulted the Experts.
The Experts
And as I wait for my insurance to authorize some tests!!!!! Augh!!
 I am taking my Medicine.
 
And Knitting a Sweater
 
And Painting my Toenails
 
And reading A LOT.
These September Issues are INSANE!!
VOGUE. Are you KIDDING ME??!!!!
 
But on the UP SIDE!
I have been nominated for two more Liebster Awards.
And the other from Melanie of Bag and a Beret.
MERCI BEAUCOUP YOU TWO. The Northwest RULES! I am feeling the Lieb.
