We recently took a trip to Nebraska for Rex’s grandmother’s 97th birthday! She is really fit and the walker she using we dubbed her runner because she is so fast. I was able to see my mother and brother while we were away for the weekend. We went swimming and it was the first time this summer I have gotten bit by a mosquito. The mosquitoes have not been bad around here, since I usually get bit a lot from them.
Rex got his MRI results back last week and it was really cool to see it. He has 2 bulges disc and arthritis. He also has a extra vertebrate that has been fused since birth, I think this explains his hamstrings He is going in again this week to get a steroid injection, they will sedate him and this treatment takes about a week to start working. His pain killers help him out a lot and the fact he is not a big moaner and complainer..lol I think most people are surprised to find out he has back problems, partly because you can’t tell. Well he has had times when he couldn’t walk…lol Basically though they told him he would have flare ups that might last between 6-12 weeks. Hopefully there will be few of those.
My triathlon exercises have been going great; it has been really fun to do different exercises. I also do a different challenge everyday, they are called mini challenges. The weight loss group I belong to has them everyday. My abs were really hurting yesterday from doing reverse crunches.
I think this commercial is completely hilarious!

A few years ago i was hit by a car and injured my back this caused me so much pain it was ruining my life and then i tried one of those mattresses that mould to your body shape and adjust to your weight and i slept great for the first time in months and woke with no pain at all! You should try it!
