oh! back to typing!
So, a few weeks ago at Wasapalooza we were racing razor scooters and I went too fast and flipped over the top/side? and broke my elbow. totally ruined my record, its my first broken bone ever! luckily, the bone didnt move around once it fractured and just stayed in position so I dont need a cast or surgery, just a sling for the next 4-6 weeks. I havent been to the gym in roughly 3 weeks and jerry says he can tell because I've become this restless crazed person and I have the worst time sleeping. lame.
The first week I couldnt do anything, and Jerry had to shower me, dress me, feed me, burp me .... lol. Now, with the help of beter living with chemistry (heh!) I can at least mostly dress myself and shower alone! progress! although my pride took a blow, when last week I had J&R over for dinner, and R had to cut up my chicken for me.
R: do you want me to cut that for you?
me: no, I have my pride.
me struggling to move arm with the knife in one hand and fork in the other
R: I think you're way past that now...
sigh.
So, next friday I have my third set of x-rays to determine if my bones are healing together enough to ditch the sling for-ever! wheeeee!
can you tell my drugs have kicked in? :)
