I Blew My Back Out

Late posting this because I've been in bed most of the time suffering. I blew out my back on the 22nd of September 2022. Last week to the point of view of this post. Well I got in my friends car and my back went ouch. It was not that bad at the time, but I woke up at about 2 am in terrible pain. I was actually screaming when I woke up.

I had to call 911 and get to the hospital. They needed to give me a shot of pain meds so I could get to the stretcher. Even with the big hit of pain meds, I was in total hell.

I have to say my back never had this level of pain. It was enough that I was having to force myself to talk. I don't know about you, but my brain does not want to talk when I'm in level 9 pain.

They used a back board to get me on the bed in the ER. I was impressed at how easy it was for them to do it. There was not a hope of me getting up and moving to the bed, there just was not.

They gave me another shot and some pills. In a couple hours the pain was down to a 5. I was then send home with a scrip for pain meds. Being they where not covered and I knew it, I complained on FB and a very nice person came to my aid with a donation of money.

I got my friend to get me some Gummies at the dispensary instead, then when it went threw on Monday, I sent the money to her with Interac. So I'm good until Wednesday for pain management. So this is good. It's Tuesday at the moment and the pain even with no gummies seems to be at a level I can tolerate easily.

I'm hoping it will be back to normal soon, but I'm giving it another week, before I get to cleaning the carpets in my place. The vacuum is the worst for my back it seems.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

My New Cuisinox Moka Pot

1. My friend Earth sent me the Moka pot I had in my Amazon Wishlist. I'm very grateful to have it, as the old one died (seal went) and I could not get parts to fix it. I'm very happy to have this. I was going to get one next month, but it would have been 2 weeks until I could get one and that long without a nice strong mug of coffee is a horrible fate to say the least. The French press makes coffee, but it's very much NOT strong and lacks the rich flavor that comes out of the Moka pot. 2. There she is, it's bigger than the old one but is supposed to make the same amount of coffee (9 espresso cups). 3. Here it is with the water in the base like you are supposed to do. It does indeed hold slightly more water than the old one does. 4. Nicely filled with Lavazza Rosa coffee (espresso). You don't want to over-fill it, just a bit from the top and don't pack it too tight. I wish I had one of those whisk tools for this task, they tend to make it slightly better, as it t
