Paying For It Today
This stubborn Taurean is truly paying for all of the work from the past two days. My back is truly letting me know that I over did it. Ouch!!! So, it is telling me today that I am going to take it easy. I am on the couch trying to rest.
After two back surgeries, you would think that I would have the common sense not to over do it, but no!!!! Here is the thing; there is this little voice inside my head the just taunts me. It says that the pain is nothing, all in you head, and to keep going. So, anyway, my body tells me that I went way too far.
Why do I do it? I don’t know if it is the male ego or just the fact that I have always been one to push things to the brink. For those of you that don’t know it, my dad was in the military, so I guess I was brought up with that idea of duty and honor. Anyway, I have always had that work ethic in me and have always tried to do more then my best.
Don’t have pity on me, that is not what this entry is about, it is about the stubborn, male ego or what ever it is that drives me to doing stupid things. As usual, I will be okay in a day or two and be back to my “normal” self. Worst case would be a week, but I don’t think I pushed that far.
All that I ask is have fun. I will be thinking of you folks as I sit here and watch my Star Trek marathon. LOL I am already being made fun of, so trust me, I am used to it.

You can do much to it and though it might hurt, it always goes back with time and care. When you want something done sometimes, theres no stopping til its done.
