Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later. After about four hours of tennis yesterday in the beautiful weather, I discovered that I must have shimmied when I should have shammied, and could not move when I woke up this morning because of the pain in my lower back.
I had to back out of my tennis plans for today, sadly, even though an hour with the heating pad made things considerably better. As I always do when I'm injured and/or sick, I called my mommy. My mommy happens to be a nurse though, and she concurred that I probably pulled something and advised me to rest and not play for a few days. *sigh* But it is so nice out!!!
So, I'm effectively grounded.
And humbled enough to have bought my very first tube of Ben Gay.
Bring it on.
