Tuesday, September 19
I really hurt myself this time. Pinched my sciatic nerve. Been doing a lot of home improvement -- re-doing the floors by hand, paint brush and polyurethane. Doing it that way b/c our floors are 6" wood squares with the grain direction alternating at each square. I wanted to seal w/ the grain, so on my hands and knees was the only option.
Doing that required that I put myself in contorted positions and carry lots of heavy cans of poly and paint (was going to paint the bedroom after I did the floors)
So, I've practically been bed-ridden since last Tuesday. First couple of days I could only crawl. Borrowed Maitland's cane which has helped dramatically. Was hunched over like a 90 year old woman.
However, was able to get some major improvements done before the accident. Got the new flat panel TV (my getting fired gift to myself) mounted w/ the glass component shelves beneath and I mounted new glass shelves to replace our old desks for our laptops:
