Old Caterpillar

 old wooden joint

 My back has been hurting for over a year now.

Generally the pain comes from the sacroiliac joint in my lower back.

Since a couple of weeks it became worse.

Sleeping and sitting was getting difficult and last week I wasn't even able to go to my work.

I feel like, my brother would say, "a really old caterpillar"
("een oude rups" in Dutch, "un ouw rups" in dialect).

Meaning "an old hag" but sounding much more friendly :-)

Suggesting the possibility of becoming a butterfly one day ;-)

I won't give up the hope I'll be able to fly someday ;-)
