I'm taking a chance today and not using my walker. #1 I don't want to rely on it so much when I'm out of the house, and #2 it's such a pain not being able to carry food from the office kitchen to my desk without either asking a coworker for assistance, or putting it in a bag and hoping it doesn't spill everywhere between point A and point B. The back spasms are greatly reduced, so I'm very grateful that my sister has been able to give me some of her time almost every night since I hurt it. I definitely wouldn't be working and moving as well as I am without her.
I doubt I would have survived a battle with my freezer last night, were it not for her. I have a bottom freezer and somehow the ice maker got turned on. (I don't use it because the water's not filtered and therefore the ice it produces makes everything taste bad.) Regardless I heard a loud rumbling from the fridge when I sat down to eat. Thought I should check it out, so opened the door and had ice come pouring out all over the floor. Once I got it all picked up, I then had the painful chore of emptying everything out of the freezer. Whew! At least this was one job none of the cats wanted to help me with. (lol)
