i know, i know - i suck at blogging...

I've just had a bit going on. My back is still hurting, I'm actually working from home, laying on the couch right now. The only time it feels better is when I'm laying down. Sitting is the worst thing for my back, and standing isn't much better. So i'm on lots of meds that don't seem to be helping too much and i hate it. I go to the Ortho doc tomorrow morning, funny thing - it's the same doc that did fuddy's back. We'll see.


Anyway, this whole thing just really BUMS me out. I mean, I had worked so hard to start running, I did my first 5k - and was so looking forward to keep doing that. I actually MISS the running lately. I think that it helped me feel better, more then just physically - but mentally. When I'm running, it was a great way to clean out my head, and de-stress. I need that. I mean, I'm a complete nutcase - I need to have some kind of release. AUGH. what to do?!


So, at least with this - I have been able to do some drawing again - so little by little, I'm actually getting back into my art. That helps, I feel great when I'm doing that. My MIL is coming down here in a few weeks and is bringing me an easel! How exciting is that!! I love it! I can't wait. I'm going to clean out a small area in my kitchen nook for it. MY ART ROOM! ;) This is one of the little drawings I did here lately - whatcha think???

I see you're putting your best foot forward....

It's a step in the right direction....

Sorry, but I had to.

I have back issues too, so I can totally relate, tho it's been treating me well lately. Which I shouldn't say, as it tempts the fates.....

That's great!
I love to draw, but, stick figures don't really have much of a place in the art world.

Going to be interesting in the world of graphic design when they want a hand drawn graphic...

My back has been hurting lately, too. But I slept on a totally fluffy bed. It was SO totally too fluffy for me. Now I pay. Daily. BAH.

Hope you get better soon.
