Back aches are bother some!!  I've spent the past two days slumped over my sewing machines making tote bags into which I will place my OT Books on the off chance that I need to carry them everyday.  I decided it would be just fine a project even if I don't use them for carrying as I'll find a way to incorporate the bags into the books storage ( Read more... )
