I'm falling apart!!

I went to the chiropractor today...The two problems areas I had he also found were the areas. He also found a spot in my neck too. Apparently my falling down the stairs twisted my left hip bone so my hip bones aren't exactly centered, which is why I have the pain in my lower back. I have to go in for another adjustment tomorrow. Right now I'm icing my back. The spot between my shoulder blades and my lower back hurt, with my lower back being the more painful area. No reading in bed, crossing legs, or sitting on soft couches or chairs. *sigh* So I'm sitting at the kitchen table right now.

Thursday my class ring should FINALLY show up. It'll be 7 weeks. The lady misinformed us. She said 6 weeks (or that's what we heard) and it's really 6-8 weeks.

June 7th is the Belmont Stakes and Big Brown will go on to try and be the 12th Triple Crown winner. The last one being Affirmed in 1978! So...it's pretty exciting. I'm hoping he can win, but who knows. In the last 11 years, 6 horses (have tried to go and win the Triple Crown and have failed. The Belmont is 3 weeks after the Preakness. The Preakness is 2 weeks after the Kentucky Derby. The Belmont is the longest of the races at 1.5 miles. 1.5 miles is not a "normal" racing distance and these 3-year-olds haven't raced that long before. Should be interesting!
