Bad back - Part II

My pain has improved though has not yet left my body.

I can't believe the week that I have had with it.

I returned to work on Thursday and managed to stay there all day and on Friday as well.

I am not sure who was happier - the people I work with or myself.

My back - still of a morning it is extremely difficult to shower and get ready for the day. I am still in a fair amount of pain but its manageable, thank goodness. By mid morning I can move around quite OK with only a small amount of pain. By the evening time my leg is really sore again. I am trying to be so very careful with what I do so as not to hurt myself again. I feel as though the inflammation is decreasing, though still present. Hopefully this time next week it will all be but a bad memory.

I had a Bowen treatment last Wednesday for the first time ever. WOW.

It was just truly wonderful and I believe it is because of this that I was able to return to work the following day. I am looking forward to my next visit this coming week. If anyone is experiencing pain or discomfort, or would just like to be pampered to the max, ask me for the details.

Work - I have been so worried about work.

I have the best boss and collegues and they have been so understanding, but I just feel as though I have let them down. I have not done anything on purpose and I would never not turn up to work just for the sake of it, but it mustn't look too good from an employers point of view. I have only been there 2-3 weeks and had to have nearly a week off. Plus we also have two people in Sydney doing training for our new computer system, one person on leave and another had a family emergency. So they were terribly short staffed. If I could have got there I would have and I feel dreadful for letting them down.

But the good new is that I am back and doing my very best.

I believe God gave me this wonderful job with these wonderful people, and I truly believe with all my heart that this is where I am supposed to be.
