\nHow I’m doing?
\nReasonably well. When I think how last week I couldn’t move without blinding pain. The doomsdaysayer in me was proclaiming how I’d never be okay again, that I was irreversibly broken. Show’s what I know.
\nWell, I’m still not sure I won’t have lasting problems. But I’m glad for the improvements.
\nI am verrily missing goat time now though. I’m not sure the last time I went this long with this little goat time. First the ribs then the back. I was toying with the idea of going today, but ‘funnily’ enough the fact that I’m feeling better has made me decide to wait just a little. When I thought that oh I would never be okay then I figured I should just go as soon as I could possibly drag my hurting body out the door. But now that I actually feel like I’m healing.. I feel like giving my body the chance to heal as much as possible would be smart. I’m a little afraid of going out goating and then waking the next day with blinding pain again…
\nI will probably wait 2-3 days. A little extra healing. And then going. I hope the goats are okay. And that they haven’t forgotten me. I bet they haven’t forgottne my bag of treats.
\nWhat a year it’s been. Starting off with some of the worst depression in a long time, then allergy testing then rib injury then back injury. Meanwhile the world in the grips of pandemic and uprecendted happenings in Denmark and everywhere else.
\nHorrible news out of Canada just now too.
\nThis world.. I really need my goat time soon.

\nHow’s I’m’s doing’s?
\nNot too bad. I went out and did a little shopping. The two previous times I did that I couldn’t walk around with feeling a bit of jabbing pain in my lower back. I didn’t feel that pain today. I don’t know if it’s because I stretched better beforehand. Or if i have healed some more. But hey, any improvement is welcome. My back is sore, but no sharp pain. Some movements still cause a little pain, but it’s much more manageable.
\nAnother couple of days rest and then i’ll go see the goats. My dad is going to come help me get a bus ticket so I don’t have to do the whole 2 hour walk. The weather is glorious right now. I just want to sit on the bench in the sun with the goats, tra la.
\nHope you’re all doing fine out there. Once again, thank you all for the support. It’s been a forked time, but I know everyone is dealing *flails arms*. Stay strong, fight the powe, turn off the lgihts when you leave the room.

\nGood goat times today. Yes, I made it out. So good to be back. Seeing the goaties rushing towards me. My brain and heart feels a lot better.
\nHow is my back feeling? A little sore, but otherwise okay. The big question is how it will feel tomorrow. When the injury happened I felt fine on the goat day too, it was the next morning that I couldn’t move without blinding pain. So. Slightly nervous about tomorrow. But we’ll see.
\nIt wen okay. One little mishap. Nuller managed to jump up on my back. Dammit. Can’t keep that kid down. Let’s hope it won’t have any bad consequences..
\nMy dad came and helped me get a bus ticket. I walked home. Hopefully that was an okay balance. I hope I haven’t overdone diddly did it.
\nBeautiful, sunny day. Warm and summery, 20C\/70F. That’s legit summer for Denmark. I remembered to bring a drinking bottle to stay hydrated. I don’t know if dehydration had anything to do after all with what happened last time, but better safe than sorry.
\nI stayed about a couple of hours I think. I really wnated to just stay longer. Sitting with Mia next to me on the bench in the sun. Perfect bliss. But I thought I’d better limit myself.
\nSo hey we’ll see. Just so happy to see my goat pals again. Let’s hope we can have a good summer.

\nFinally, back where I belong. Good for the heart, mind and soul. Let’s hope I don’t wake up tomorrow with blinding pain in the body again.

\nMia at the gate. Sigh. She still doesn’t quite understand how come I’m not letting them out in the morning. I wish we could start going out again soon.
\nOn a funnier note, a couple of kids came to the fence to look at the goats and they were asking me questions. Questions like “How come you’re in the goat pen? And aren’t you afraid the goats are going to eat you?”. I’ll take my chances amongst goats over humans any day.

\nOh, and if you’re having trouble keeping track of my goat pals, here’s a video where I introduce them all (yes, I can talk. It happens. Rarely).
\nNuller and Lily. Milo and Sky. Mia. And Sassy.
\nFrom the last time I was goating, which was also a beautiful, sunny day.

\nAlright, I’m going to shut it down for today. Feeling fairly okay. Big question is, how will I feel in the moninr? Still improving or back in pain? Tune in tomorrow for further adventures of That Guy Whose Always Something Wrong With.

\nHow is I’m doing?
\nOkay. My back and legs are a bit sore. But the important thing is. I did not wake up with blinding pain every time I move. So that, that’s good. I was a little worried.
\nHopefully this means I’m on the road to recovery. And that I can get back to normal, regular goating. I have to be careful about my back of course, ease into it. But when you consider that two weeks ago I had myslf convinced that I’d never be able to move without pain again, this is.. better.
\nThank you all for the support and advice along the way. You’re simply the best, better than all the rest.
