Back crap

So I threw out my back last weekend, and I'm still waiting for it to get back to normal. I don't need the cane anymore (which I needed the first few days after it went out), but I still have problems standing up if I've been sitting or lying for more than a few minutes. I just hope it goes away before I leave for Cananda on the 18th. I'm not sure if I'll be able to manage the 10 1/2 hour drive if my back is hurting, but I refuse to not go. Which would mean getting up there and not being able toi do anything.
This should be an interesting year to go anyways. Due to timing this will be the first eyar I'll be up there without any other family there. I'm used to either my folks or my sister being there while I am. What makes it so interesting is that while I can get to the cottage without a prob, I'm not sure how to get to some of the place aroudn the cottage without help. There are places in surrounding towns that I like to go to, but I've never been the one to drive to them, which means I've never paid that much attention on how to get there. Since much of the area is just open woods and farm land there isn't a ton of landmarks to show the way. But I still want to take babushka to some of these spots, like the giant Tag Sale and a great fish and chips place (really great when considering that I don't like fish but will still eat there). There's also an amusment area and , well not sure what you'd call it but it's a place that has long concrete slides that you go down in these plastic racers with lever brakes on them for speed control.
But we don't have a comp or even a phone at the cottage so I have no way of getting direction for them. I mean, I'm sure Babushka won't mind if we don't go to them, what she doesn't know right? But I was hoping to take her and I'll be disapointed.
So cross your fingers that my sad old emmory might jst be able to work better than I hope.
Ok, gotta go, my back can't take sitting down this long.
