As soon I have bookclub (tomorrow) I will make you a little list of books to send Steve to get for you:<br />I have recently read 'The other Boylen girl' and 'The constant princess' (first one was better but second about Elisabeth- a Spanish princess going to England- so had to read it) by the same author and while other books are perhaps better I really enjoyed them as historical fiction, easy to read, exploring the difference in cultures, women in courts, etc. <br />The Shadow of the Wind is another good Spanish book! Have you read A Fine Balance- that is a great read, also the Pursuit of Happiness by Douglas Kennedy is really good, and so is Middlesex.<br />Get better soon!Annuskahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01544282976085336867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1235641598408247148.post-63477165004683146742009-07-27T08:07:16.080+10:002009-07-27T08:07:16.080+10:00Sound advice Kerrie, thank you.

This time is not as bad, as I knew the warning signs and got help quicker. And it seems like the problem is a bit different: not muscular, but joint related. m not sure what to expect in terms of recovery.<br /><br />Ive suspended my gym membership :(<br /><br />Glad you are on the mend now. <br /><br />Yes, reading is good! Just finished the "Cathedral on the Sea" and hunting around for another good book!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03185473644935795616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1235641598408247148.post-7206114526415438812009-07-26T22:07:03.955+10:002009-07-26T22:07:03.955+10:00Take good care Jen...rest and recover fully now an...Take good care Jen...rest and recover fully now and pay careful attention to your activity once you start moving about again. The critical time is when you are feeling better but haven't fully healed, the pain is gone but your back is still fragile, it's easy to overdo it then and do more damage...take care to not do too much in this time window. I had major spinal surgery last November after many years of back pain and not heeding doctor's advice about caring for my back. It's only starting to feel really good now, it has been a long haul.<br /><br />Hope you can get some reading in while resting...remember to take the drugs, they are your friend.<br /><br />Keep us posted, okay..??Kerriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12804791418164361209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1235641598408247148.post-21981269461942182542009-07-26T20:23:35.783+10:002009-07-26T20:23:35.783+10:00Hi Delwyn,

It is going to be a slow process. As I type I am rolling my foot backwards and forwards on a foot rocker the physio gave me to use.<br /><br />Rest up and enjoy the down time..<br /><br />Happy daysDelwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16813713107604750354noreply@blogger.com
