Ah, that's lovely. I needed a smile today. What a beautiful little girl.

Somehow, some time between Saturday night and Sunday morning I managed to strain my lower back - while I was in bed. The only thing I can think of is that, unusually, Rudi wanted to lie near me and I moved into a slightly awkward position so he wouldn't jump off the bed. I must have fallen asleep in that position, but the result is that yesterday I couldn't walk, I wasn't even able to move enough to get stuff out of the fridge. Today was slightly better, but I had to pass up my yoga class tonight.

How TF do you injure yourself just by sleeping?

I don't know how you injure yourself just by sleeping but I did it a couple of weeks ago. I woke up with a pain in my left foot that felt like the muscles were trying to break the bones. Heat, muscle relaxants, hot bath, and slow movement finally helped but it was sore for 3 days.

Maybe we all need to convene at a convalescent home....

The Home for Broken Bunnies.

For real.

I've woken up in the middle of the night in agony when my arm starts killing me. (I have a tear in my left rotator cuff and I've had tenodesis surgery on the right). I guess in my sleep I'll fling an arm over my head, or lie on top of it, until it starts screaming. I can completely understand your pain when you woke, Senyar.

Bubble wrap. We all need heating pads and suits made from bubble wrap.

I often wake up in pain from my shoulder (tear in two tendons, plus bursitis) because I stupidly keep rolling over in my sleep and lying on it. I used to be able to sleep in any position, but now I need a careful arrangement of pillows just to avoid hurting myself in my sleep!

I can't believe that little girl wasn't scared of the "beast." Amazing--

Gentle hugs to all the aching bunnies. I feel ya.
