How can this happen: stretch an arm out left to signal on a roundabout, and OUCH! Suddenly my back wrenches with muscular pain. It must have been quietly taut for days, but this sudden movement found it. Now I can’t do stuff. I haven’t had backache for most of this year.
What’s left to do; finish that letter, and this could be the excuse to finish reading that book. No painting tonight, I can’t even sit cross legged- ouch!
