WARNING!!!! Stamping is dangerous to your health

[Angela_71]

After many attempts I decided that today would be the day that I would tackle the stamp room(not to self...next time leave it alone) after being distracted by many of the treasures I found in there I started to make some head way...until i bent down to pick up a stamp set and a scream came out of my mouth that shook the house and brought the family running...yep i threw out my back....so hubby carried me upstairs deposited me in bed and brought me that lap top...so be careful and watch as you clean those rooms....lol

And to think I was just about to tidy up (again) myself. Thanks for the warning. I'm sure I can still tap into my creative resources amid this crazy mess! Feel better soon!

I think you mean CLEANING is hazardous to your health. That is why I refuse to do it. :mrgreen:

[Donna Cook]

I would have had to stay in the basement, no way dh would be carrying me up the stairs.,,,without throwing his back out...then we would be in a fix. So you are right...no cleaning....

[jtax]

ouch! hope you feel better soon. enjoy being waited on time until you feel better...

[AddictedScramper]

Oh my gosh! I hope you are ok! Who'd have thought?

Yes this hobby can be dangerous to our health.

About two weeks ago. I was in my stamp room and I needed to pick up something from off the floor.

I leaned over in my Office chair and the next thing I knew I was trying to break my fall.

And boom! down I went and landed on my right hand and arm.

Which wasn't a good thing at all. Cause two years ago I fell on some Black ice and shattered that arm. And it doesn't work correctly anymore.

Yes I laid on the floor in pain for a few mintues...No one home but and the cat. and he was a big help. He ran away from me when I fell.

I quess I must have made a lot of noise.

So now I watch when I am bending over in the chair.

Oh no. You poor thing. I know what it's like to have troubles. My back has not been right since having my daughter 14 y ears ago. The epidural they gave me was not right and messed with my back.

I hope that you get well soon... Take care..

Feel better, and I always thought it was only dangerous to the wallet,

[Kittypaws]

OMG - how awful! The upside is your family can wait on you for a change - enjoy! Hope you feel better soon.

I am stuck in the recliner with my pain meds, heating pad, and my laptop, too. My back went out a few days ago. I can literally "feel" your pain. Take care of yourself and thank God for your laptop!

[wiggynine]

So sorry for all of the pain. It's no fun for sure. Hope you can get back to normal and start stamping again soon.
