It has been a week since I threw out my back. Technically, I hurt it a little last Saturday, but Monday Morning, I hurt it a lot. I could barely move for three whole days. Here is Frankie Monday morning demanding I take him for a walk.
Frankie has a habit of sitting and staring when he wants something. It really is effective, but this time I couldn’t help him. How do you explain to a cat who is used to getting morning walks that he can’t go out?
I am feeling about fifty percent better today and was able to take Frankie for a walk this morning and yesterday morning, which I’m thankful for, and so is Frankie.
Unfortunately, my bad back meant that I couldn’t ride in the car today, as my wife went to visit her 92-year-old dad on the other side of the state. He fell on Monday and ended up in the hospital. Now he is in a rehabilitation center and may not ever be able to go back to his house.
In other news, I finished the script for the fifth installment of my Last Healer Mysteries series called “Last Hope.” While I am involved in getting an artist to create the cover, I have decided to release on Amazon a short story I wrote, titled “Repeat.” It is available for free as an e-book today and tomorrow. Click here to get a copy. It is a fifteen to twenty-minute read, and I think you will enjoy it, especially the twist at the end.

Take care of that back now – later on you won’t be bouncing back as quickly – my husband can vouch for that!! Congrats on your latest book – you’ve had great artists doing your previous covers and I’m sure you’ll find someone who can come up with the perfect image for this one too.
Hugs, Pam
Thanks, Pam. I have used the same artist for all my books except for the first two.
Frankie’s face says he does not intend to take “no” for an answer. We are happy you have been able to go for a walk with him the last two mornings. It is probably helpful for you to get moving again. But don’t overdo and have a set back. We are very sorry to hear about Rose’s dad and are sending purrs and prayers.

Thanks so much.
what is it they say, when it rains, it pours. hope things start looking up for everyone at your house, sorry to hear about your father in law. that’s gonna be tough on him if he can’t return home.
Thanks. I spoke to my wife, and she said his cognitive decline is shocking. I fear things will get worse very soon.
Oh, my one thing after another. Glad you are starting to feel better, and I know Frankie is very much happier going for his own daily outside amble.
We hope that Rose’s Dad will heal up. Its so hard when our elders get into troubles like that.
Thanks so much. It is a difficult time.
You can’t rush healing. Prayers and healing sent your way.
Thanks.
I hope your back is all better soon. I’m sorry to hear about your father-in-law, hope he is mending.
Thanks so much.
I will add your wife’s father to my prayer list. And I hope you are back to 100% soon. Thank you for the free story.
Thanks so much. she has a long prayer list.
You have my sympathy both on the back pain (i get it once in so often) and the demands made by those who don’t understand why you can’t.
I’m very sorry to hear about your father-in-law. It’s so hard watching those we love get older.
Thanks so much. It is a difficult time for my wife.
I hope your back is feeling much better real soon…and I bet Frankie does too. Prayers and purrs for your father in law.
Thanks so much.
Frankie does not look at all sympathetic. Glad you’re getting better. Sorry to hear about Rose’s dad. Take care of yourself.
Thank you.
