Sorry for popping in and out so much lately .. the hubby pulled his back out .. so now I have 4 kids to care for
One time in so Cal, we were building our Spanish courtyard with Mexican tile our friends had brought up from Mexico (yep--really)...and Gene bent over the tailgate of the El Camino to pick up the last 3 or 4! He nearly went down to his knees....it was just the slighest of angles with the little added weight of the tile.
He just about had to crawl into the house. Missed several days of work as he went to a chiropractor for xrays, heat treatments, manipulation, etc.
He wasn't a lot of fun to be around the first few days.
