Ouch

Pulled a muscle in my back on Saturday. Lesson learned: do not clean an air filter by holding it at arm’s length and hosing it down. The additional weight of the water can put excessive strain on the arm that then goes all the way down to the back.

Ow! Get better soon.

Thanks. Fortunately, our massage therapist makes house calls and is often available on weekends, so I was able to get some help today... but I still have to be careful with how I breathe if I’m not completely flaked out. Cleo has been helpful in showing me how to flake out properly. :-)

"You must first settle within yourself and find your center. Breathe in and out slowly while purring steadily. And don't skimp on the kitty treats for me; it's good for your chi."

Rowr! This seems to be the season for it... you, preciousjade, grandmoffdavid... Be well, sir.

That’s the plan. :-) I seem to be doing somewhat better today, though I still have to be careful. I just need to remember to get lots of sleep...

Take it easy, remember, ice the first 24 hours then alternate ice and heat. It might not be a bad idea to pick up some arnica and see the chiropractor.
