Weeks ago, I slipped on the wood floor and fell down the stairs. The fall messed up some of the surgery done to my back at the beginning of fall and I'd been stuck in bed for a while. (Only recently could I get up to go farther than the bathroom.) My mother's here to help take care of the kids, but I hate feeling so useless. The world's been passing me by. I want to be out with my family again! :-(
