nice to have

Yes, it's nice to have someone who cares and really shows it rather than a "I Love you" lip service. I did a good deed last Friday and helped load a moving trailer for my sister in law. Well the big strong young guy had to work so it left me and a 45 year old little fellow to load including washer and dryer and couch that makes into bed among everything else she owned. We got it all done and felt ok . Later that evening I went to hug my daughter who was sitting and when I straightened up I had a sharp pain shoot up my right side back. Next day my lower back was killing me, so heat pad, laid around didn't do anything, and was by myself for that day and Sunday also. Sunday it hurt even worse.. Took pain pills I had stashed away, heat pad again. Monday the wife came home from a trip so I went to chiropractor for first time. Got home and after 200$ bill now I can't hardly move.
 My wife really came thru. After traveling for days, and I know she was beat, she cooked dinner for me, and later when I couldn't take off my pants cause I couldn't bend to reach them, she came and undressed me. Next morning she dressed me. As she was leaving for work she told me she would go out for lunch and don't do my usual morning things for her, she was fine, and not to worry about supper tonight we would figure something out.
 I am the guy who usually helps and does for others , I am the guy who likes to help and fix things. I can't fix or do for myself right now and it's a funny feeling to have the shoe on the other foot. It is super nice to have someone doing for and helping me during this time. This is love in action. This is love with feet and hands in motion not just saying it but doing it.  I can't rightly express how thankful I am. This is the kind of thing I do without thinking twice for others but when it is done for me it seems really funny/weird to have someone helping or doing for me.
  I am sorry I couldn't wash her car while she was gone but I simply couldn't move around without pain to do it. She understood.
 So today I am on pain pills, muscle rub and using heat for 30 minutes then cold pack 30 minutes and trying to move around a little. I hope I the pain eases soon.
                Today I am thankful I have someone who cares and does something about it as she can.
