Fly on the E-Commerce Cyberwall

Relief
My day today revolved not so much around work as around the potential of not working. Fortunately, though, it ended well.

I've had back pain since last Thursday that has gotten increasingly severe. My wife, Joanne, finally ignored my male posturing and called the doctor, who raised the spectre of sending me to the hospital just two days before we were set to fly out East for our daughter's graduation. OK, they got my attention. I agreed to have it checked out.

Fortunately, it was nothing that remotely required hospitalization and I've noticed some improvement already with ice packs, special exercises and medication. It still looks like I'll be pretty uncomfortable during the trip, but at least I'll be going.

Now if I can just get some relief on the work I need to get done before leaving. Both the work for my client and work for my site could keep me fully occupied full time from now until then. I'll get done what I get done and that's all I can do.

But I got one project for One Stop done today and that's a load off my mind.

Now to get some relief of another kind and see if my back is improved enough to allow me some sleep tonight.
