I woke up at 5:40 because my back and neck hurt too much to let me keep sleeping.

It keeps giving me the urge to stretch, and then when I stretch, the pain sharpens and nauseates me.

My appointment to get my back (temporarily) fixed is tomorrow morning at 10:00.

It's going to be a long day.

If you can tell me something good you've experienced in the last week, I'd really appreciate it.

Edited to Add: Later in the day I will give you a list of good things I've experienced, so it's not just you folks being positive and me absorbing.

I got bananas at the store yesterday. Reid wanted one, but they're green, so I was explaining to him that they have to be yellow first. "But that little bit yellow!" No, sweetheart, they have to be *all* yellow.

(Some people might like green bananas, but I don't, and I know from experience that Reid doesn't either.)

Last night, when putting him to bed, he said, "Daddy, it dark now. Bananas get blue." Blue? "Yes. Green now, need to be yellow, it dark, they get blue." Okay then. This morning: "Daddy, banana get more yellow!" Yes, it is, but it needs to be all yellow. "But...sun up!" Apparently the bananas are meant to have a diurnal color phase sort of thing.

It wasn't this past week, but in other happy color conversation news, we were all driving home together, and Laura saw the sign for one of the periodic bluegrass concerts in our town. "Look, honey, bluegrass!" Yay, bluegrass! Reid chimed in from the back: "Grass not blue, grass *green*!"

Boy, grown-ups just don't get it sometimes, do they?

I think I'm very happy we don't have diurnal bananas.

Today may be a day for making banana bread. Banana bread will be made soon, in any case. The browning bananas are lurking.
