What not to do the day before a trip 



I somehow managed to throw my back out in the last 2 days. ouch, ouch, ouch. I think that I carried Davis too long while Doug was away. ("Uppy, Mommy" was perhaps his most-uttered sentence all week.) I know it is not healthy to care a 30+ pound 3 year old around on the hip all day...but he is so darn cute. Who can say no?

Evidently, my back can say no.

Oh well. I'm not worried about the race. I feel fine when I'm walking or running. It's just when I'm sitting or lifting or bending that I end up in excruciating pain.

The plane ride tomorrow ought to be interesting. I'm counting heavily on the kindness of strangers....
