     Today was a resting day.  It started out sleeping in late this morning, waiting for the clock to turn over to 1115, when I had to get out of bed and jump in the shower to get ready for church.  So I laid there and closed my eyes until hubby told me that it was time.  So I got up and jumped in the shower.  Not our bathroom shower, no, our bathroom shower leaks into the downstairs bathroom ceiling and now the downstairs bathroom ceiling has a big hole in it and we can't use our bedroom bathroom.  We have to use the hall bathroom shower.  We can still use the sink and the toilet in the bedroom bathroom.  Just not the shower.
     So I get dressed in my casual dress and knee high brown boots, and took a sweater with me in case it was too cool outside as this dress didn't have sleeves.  Thought it was a little cool, I was fine and when we got to church, it was downright warm in there, a little too warm.  But I never needed my sweater.  Hubby was pretty warm and the sermon was long, longer than normal.  From all the extra sitting, hubby's back started to spasm, and when it does this, it makes him have to go to the bathroom, it makes him feel like he has to poop.  So twice he had to get up and go to the bathroom.
     By the time the mass was over, I am Catholic so our church services are called mass, hubby was in quite a bit of pain and was sweating profusely.  We got to the car and he hurriedly drove home, thinking he was going to be very sick by the time we got there.  Luckily, he didn't have to stop too much and rivets of swear were running down his face by the time we got home.  He quickly ran up to the bathroom.  After I brought him a drink, his muscle relaxer and a pain pill, he jumped into a hot bath to see if he could get the back spasms to stop.
     Eventually, his back stopped being quite so bad so he got out of the tub and got into the bed with a heating pad.  That is were he spent the afternoon, napping and relaxing.  I stayed by his side, occasionally taking the dogs out.
     We didn't eat dinner until about 9pm and then we had eggs, bacon and fried potatoes.  Afterwards, we went back up to bed to watch tv.
