Well now.

OK, so instead of accomplishing anything on Labor Day weekend, I was stuck in bed the whole time.  ALL THREE FREAKING DAYS.  My lower back started bothering me Friday evening, so I went to bed early.  Saturday morning I could hardly move.  I forced myself to do so, anyway, 'cause there was much I wanted to accomplish - I even managed to get the grass mowed 'cause Nick had to work - but when I came back in I went to lay down... and there I stayed.    Tried to work Tuesday, but had to leave after 3 1/2 hrs.  Just couldn't bear sitting in that chair all day.  

Trying it again today... feel a bit better... we'll see how it goes. 

Grrr.
