You know, you're going to think I'm a fanatic about this, but one thing I've found out after breaking my neck was that when I don't drink enough water it causes those muscles to spasm also. I don't think that's a cold weather related part - but it *is* harder for me to remember to drink water when it's cold.

Anyway, when I get a crick or a spasm I always make it a point to drink more water. Truthfully, after all these years I don't know that makes so much difference. But, in the first 2 or 3 years I could definitely see a correlation. Well, and I was still drinking whiskey on a pretty regular basis then. I would notice when I'd get dehydrated from that I would ALWAYS have muscle spasms in that injury related area.

Oh...you are probably correct again! It has been a terribly busy week...and I haven't even had time to eat my harvest blend bagel in the morning a couple of times...much less drink my required water.

I'll start on that tomorrow morning. Not tonight, I'll be up all night! LOL

I took the pliers to that dang wire...twisted it back upon it's self and bent it back into the chair back. But the chair is wore out. I mean, my folks got this old furniture back in the 70s. It was threadbare and just give out.

This new chair is nifty...like a cushiony wingback chair with wooden claw feet...then you sit in it and it reclines.

The couch has got to go next...we REALLY need a new couch. But the Lord provides in His good time. We'll either be given one or we'll buy a new one after Steve graduates and gets a better job. Either way, the Lord provides.
