One way to save $9....

...have your back go out on you just after you leave for work.  No gas spent to go to work - $9 saved! NOT that I'd recommend this method to anyone to try.  I'm sitting in my car driving to work, minding my own business, and wham! my back seizes up and instant pain.  This is leftovers from the car accident I was in 4 years ago - it sucks!  So, I'm back home, loaded up with a muscle relaxer, pain pill and the heating pad.  At least it hasn't happened in quite awhile, so guess all the regular chiropractic visits have helped.  I couldn't think of anything I did that might have triggered this but then I remembered that yesterday, after I sent Dd back into Target to get our left behind bag, I picked up the bag (only like 18 lbs) of dog food out of the car and lifted it into the back of her pickup. I had to lift is chest high so that probably was enough to cause it.  Damn!
