Oh, Brother.

I'm still suffering from some weird sort of muscle spasms. If you have EVER suffered from that, I am sorry that I did not bring you a casserole and offer to massage your aching back. I should have.

Since it hurts the worst when I am playing the piano, or using my computer, life as I like it has taken a turn. Anyway...

I just have to share this from the singles ads in my local paper. This woman writes:

"KIND & UNDERSTANDING - 46 yrs. old. I am a kind, understanding, young looking SWF, with high values and morals. Looking for a SWM, 18-50, who enjoys life..."

Honey...listen to me...there is something WRONG with your values if you are looking for a 'man' who is 18. Perhaps you are looking for a, shall we say, son? They aren't 'men' until 21, and I HAVE one of those, and about all they want to call someone our age is MOM. You might be young looking, but you AREN'T young. Get over it.

Okay, that's my daily rant. I sure hope it was a typo, or she needs heavy boxes lifted, or some ulterior motive.

And the only qualification is that he enjoys life. Can you imagine an ad for someone who would rather be dead?

Remember the ad from a man looking for a woman "with a tractor"? Or was that a joke?

I hope you're feeling better soon!

We have found a wonderful product from Mannetech company called Firm cream...it can sure help out with muscle pain! A bit spendy but a little goes a long ways and it keeps a long time too. Get well soon!!

I've had muscle spasms. Sympathy! Sympathy! Sympathy!

Hope you're painless soon.

So sorry you're not feeling well....wish I lived close by and could bring you dinner.

I got a great laugh from the singles ad. At barely 24, I can't imagine dating an 18 year old. :)

I'm back (so to speak)! I'm having a weird problem with my back today. It's sort of a stiff back. While staying in one position I am okay, but when I move, like trying to get up for example, I look and act like someone who is about 192 years old. After I get myself up, I become limitedly mobile. Weird. It just stared to happen yesterday while we were driving around doing absolutely nothing strenuous.

Just thought I'd add here that it doesn't appear to be a typo. In the next issue, it appears the same - 18-50.

Icky pooh.
