It's only funny because it's not true

Hey there!

I'm still unemployed, and loving it more than I should, I'm sure. My son and I are having a blast; I'm getting lots done, helping lots at school, and even making new friends. I'm actually working this morning, as I get called in every week or so for bookkeeping tasks.

My back has been acting up for the last three weeks, which is never fun, but par for the course for me sometimes. It actually went a year with no problems, so I'm thankful for that. Yesterday it was doing a little better, but this morning, after being at my desk for an hour, I can feel it reverting back to its previous level of soreness.

Last week I got a filling in my tooth. I have very few fillings, thankfully, especially after this latest one. I don't know if my body didn't like the novocaine, or what. My cheek swelled up for a day and a half and was sore, and days later, I still have a large bruise on my jaw slightly larger than a golf ball. We had some new friends over for lunch yesterday. Last night, hubby asked if I had told the wife about what had caused the bruise on my jaw. I said no, that I had forgotten it was there. He said "Oh." I asked if he thought they thought he had hit me, and he said "Possibly." I laughed it off, and said "At least my back was doing a little better. If I had trouble moving around-" Hubby then finished what I was going to say exactly "It would have looked like I pushed you down the stairs, too." Yes, I know domestic violence is no laughing matter. I guess it's only funny because we know it's not true.
