The word for Wednesday 14.04.2010 is BACKBREAKING

Today's word is backbreaking! I laughted when l read today's choice of word. Over the weekend, l was doing garden work, for my son in his new house in Rutland! Now you may or maynot know, that a few years ago l had yet another back op and had my L4 and L5 vertabra's fussed. The problem that l have now, is that my back never gives me a warning when it has had too much! I think l am ok and then suddenly BAM..it doesn't work anymore! Anyway, l was bending down to pick up some weeds, went to put them In the green bin and "ouch!"my back went. I had done too much backbreaking gardening. I think my face shows how l feel! When will l learn!
