Scary Movie Therapy

For the past few days I haven't been able to turn my neck to the left. And the pain has been distracting to say the least. I made a chiropractor appointment, but as a new patient cannot get in until next Thursday. I could go to my GP, but it's a drive and, really, what would she do? Muscle relaxers maybe....

So a couple of quiet days with books in front of the fire and it's been cold. As long as I didn't move, things could have been worse. Then yesterday our youngest went into town for a sleepover. The three of us remaining took the opportunity to go see the latest Harry Potter. And it was there, during the snake scene, that it happened. I won't go into too much detail in case you haven't seen it yet (and still want to), but there's this snake scene (of course!) and you just think its over and are starting to take a big breath (just like at the chiropractor) and then suddenly the snake is BACK and BIG and IN YOUR FACE. Of course I JUMPED. And there was a crack and, oh the sweet relief of a rib or a neck or a clavicle snapping right back into place. I feel sort of all warm and fuzzy for the $8 popcorn and the big screen today.
