My morning

I'm working on day four or so of a badly spasming/sore back. Not the worse since I first threw my back out, oh eight or so years ago, but definitely in the top five. This morning, while I was grinding coffee (Equator's Breakfast Blend) I didn't hear a client come into the kitchen. He spoke, startling me, causing me to tense, causing a spasm. I screamed, startling him, so I guess we're even.

Not that I want to fill up this space with whining about my back (well really I do but I won't) but yesterday, after having it spasm all night I finally gave up and started out of bed at 6:00. By the time I got out of bed, dressed and shuffled in to start the client's breakfast it was after 7:00. Today it has been the sneezing causing me the most pain, but at least it feels on the mend. But Hilary just crawled up onto my lap and gave me a big hug, making everything worthwhile.

So to thank you for putting up with the "poor me" whine, here is the sky this morning, around 10:00. The photo doesn't really do it justice but it will give you a small inkling of the range of colours, now that the sun is gone.
