So instead of driving around Texas, we drove straight up to Wisconsin, and then straight back, got home about 11 pm last night. After 12 straight hours in the truck yesterday, I am now fully aware that I have a tailbone, and it feels like somebody hit me there with a sledgehammer. Yay! I have a tailbone. Dang! I have a tailbone...

Hurray for your tailbone to make its appearance while you were sitting for hours

Oh Whit...that is AWESOME!! Don't you wish you could bottle those WOW moments so you can take them out and relish that feeling again when things aren't going exactly right!! Good for you!! I bet your Hubbie enjoyed your Moment as much as you did!!!

I notice my wrist bones a lot too. I actually lost a lot of weight in my wrists, fingers, and face. Sometimes I think my arms look sooooooo long now. lol
