Such a pain in the neck
WRITING PROMPT # 22: Someone Getting Scared
I haven't been very scheduled this week with my daily writing prompts. Like today for example, it's 9:01 P.M. and I am begrudgingly typing out a prompt just to say I accomplished my goal. There is an excuse attached. Around five in the morning on Sunday, I was getting back into bed after feeding Hollie. As I was rolling onto my side, my neck crunched. (That's definitely the medical terminology.) It felt like my spine just slipped out of line and it was excruciating. I missed church. My right eye was blurry all day. If I moved at all I cried. One might say I was someone getting scared. In the evening my vision came back but I am still getting over the pain. Now it just kind of hurts to look left but the kids all know to stand to my right. We're adaptable.
On the positive side, after church one of my kids said, "Mom, we get it if you want to eat a sweet. I did bring home a cookie if you want it."
And I stayed strong! No sweets for me! Not even a wonky neck will break me, September! Although I can now add rolling over to my list of fears.
