Sorry you're having back problems Peggy. That's the pits, to say the least! I sure hope your new meds do the trick.
When I went to Physio today, we talked about how my back hasn't bothered me as much the past couple of weeks since I last saw her. Then I realized that while Dad was in the hospital, I wasn't spending any time to speak of with the granddaughters! I think it's lifting sturdy little Julia that got it riled up again! Anyway, I'll try to be more careful how I lift her if I have to lift her, and see if that helps.
Hey, now we know why I'm always such a grouch! 
Dale, how is your veggie garden coming? Have it all in the ground yet?
Nanners, how are you doing? Just 'cause you're a new bride doesn't mean you can stay away, you know!
Our weather has been really iffy the past few days ... sunny one minute, and rainy and windy the next. In one day it seems like we have about four different climates! Right now its dul and grey out, but it stopped raining. I sure hope it clears a bit for the weekend. I want to get out in my flowerbeds!
Di, you should post some pictures of your quilts! I love quilts! In Abbotsford there is a large Mennonite community, and man do those ladies make some unbelievably beautiful quilts! At the Agricultural Fair they always have lots of competition for the quilters (as well as other handiwork) and I used to just love going through and looking at the entries.
Dad is doing better, but he is still really listless and tires really easily. My son Jason is coming over tomorrow from the mainland to visit, and I'm hoping that will perk Dad up a bit. He's bringing the pictures he and Kate took on their Australian trip last month.
Hope you are all doing well, and that you have a great weekend!

Well I broke down and went to the Dr for my back. Two weeks of this was all I could take. He gave me some new meds and I'm supposed to do NOTHING for a week. Lucky for me I have Billy and he can take over with the critters. Truffles likes me OK but when Billy is here, she is his bird. She just adores him.
Well the back is some better. The spasms have stopped and that's a big relief but it still hurts if I try to do to much. It's a great excuse for being lazy.
OMG I've been computerless for 2 days. First Truffles chewed up the keyboard for the webtv on Fri. and then Sugar got the cord to mouse on the PC on Sat. I think my too's have it in for me. The keyboard is useable but it's not working very well. I was able to read the e-mail and the message boards but couldn't reply to anything. I was off today but my SIL had to go to town so he picked me up a mouse.
