    Default Popping in to say hi

    Just wanted to let you all know I'm still alive. Special thanks to those who have pm'd me wondering how I'm doing.
    My back went wacky a few weeks ago and started to get better then while pulling out the retractable cord on the vacuum to plug it in , I hurt it again.(I always knew housework was bad for your health) :rollingpin: This time it wasn't getting better and I was in major pain so ended up at the docs. Sciatica. I go for an EMG next week and who knows what after that. I can only sit for a few min before the pain kicks in, hence my not posting. Hope to be back with you all soon.

    Welcome to all new Fv'rs and hope everyone is doing well.

    I have really missed you Darlene. I wondered where you were, but thought you two may have popped out of town for a get away. Hope you feel better soon.

    Hi, was wondering where you were also.

    Take care with your back, I know exactly what you are going through. Hopefully taking it easy will help ease some of the pain, and you'll be up running around again. Keep us posted. I hope you are feeling better soon!

    Thanks FV Buds!
    Jack has been a big help, so caring & yes he's been vacuuming. Looks like the floor needs it again...Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!
    He's had back problems in the past so he knows what this is like. Nice having someone to care for you when you need it. He's a keeper. Married 24 years ago on this very day. :spin:
