Yesterday Nick came over and we successfully jacked out the eyesore clothesline poles in the middle of the backyard. This was months after my failed lawn tractor/pulley extraction attempt. Where the poles were, there are now rock filled holes. Where my back muscles were, there is pain. The immobilizing spazming kind.

I’m in bed today, and if I’m lucky (and with Kelly’s help), I’ll move to the couch. But that’s all the movement I plan on today.

My new bike will probably arrive today to laugh at me.
