Awesome entrance

for some time i've thought about coming back to my blog...and well look at me, now i have. and oooh do i have awesome timing. i get to come back with nifty pictures of an all too common bi-product of me. it's an injury! and one i haven't had before...yay for new!

i'm sure the pictures explain enough...but for you squeemish people, i fractured my toe. i stubbed my toe on one of mums 10lb weights. it only hurts when i move it...or walk. it will take 4 weeks to heal and if i bump it again, i will most likely end up snapping the bone in half and in the cool fashion that makes it poke out your skin. doc's words...not mine.

all the piggies

all of the piggies together happily, the swelling is a bit less now.

right side

the deep purple bruise is right where i fractured it.

bottom toe

it wraps around the right side of my toe, then just stops.

left side

that's where i hit the weight.

hope everyone else is doing good...and who knows maybe i'll throw some pictures up once i'm not in pain.

toodles!

Update

Time flies when stress abounds. The little miss is growing and percocious as ever. Has a constant fight to keep her sniffles away, but such is the life of a munch I'm sure. She's enjoying school and loving learning. I'm wishing her school was more advanced now, since she is wanting to learn much faster then they teach. And I feel stumped on how to teach her myself.

Chris is busy with work. In March (at least the last time I asked) he is going to be on overtime the whole month. Having only 1 day off a week. And working on day shift the two overtime days. I just sort of stared as he explained it all. I'm ging to be looking forward to April. He is working hard to get a promotion this year..I'm hoping he gets it. We are in desperate need of moving out, and the extra monthly will allow us the required jump in rent.

I'm. Well, falling apart lol. It seems that something is always wrong with me lately, I don't know what's up. It stared about 2 weeks ago. Odd pains in my right leg and arm. Muscle cramps, numbness. I figured my body was just "being silly" as it always is. But then I fell down my stairs, twice in 3 days because my leg and arm gave out while walking. Then I awoke from a nap with my right leg completely numb for almost an hour I was unable to walk. Now I've got the constant odd pains, numbness and a bucket of other things going on. I'm awaiting blood and MRI tests for MS, a possible thyroid problem and/or whatever anyone elses best guess could be. For now I'm rocking one of Mum's canes and trying Vallium and some of Mum's muscle relaxiants until my doc can come up with something better.

Beyond that, I've sold my camera. Well as of Wednesday it is sold. The D300 is aimed at being the replacement, of course now with my body crapping out. I'm kind of on the fence until I know what's up with me. It's hard enough to do pictures with one bum leg and arm...sets of each are just gonna be more fun then I care to undertake.

Hope you are all awesome, and sorry about the break in posting.

Teh little miss

Pria gets "camera time" every so often. She's getting a bit better with not needing any supervision and just roaming and snapping happily until I decide to give the shutter a rest.

These are the latest she's done

Training

Waddles

Grate

orange

Walking

flowies

I try not to constrain her, lately her favorite thing is to take pictures with the camera upside down. Or up close with the flash on...we still need to discuss eye damage from that one. She's got some good ideas, just needs a bit for patience....

last pictures

I haven't posted in a while, these are some of the last pictures I've taken.

Aunt Lanny had me come up and do some family picture beore Am left on her mission. I'm still editing them, but they are fine for blog viewing.

2 by 2 by 2

2

It's not a bad number, but it's just haunted me lately.

2 surgeries in one year
2 new scars to remind me that I'm not that young anymore
2 years shy of 30
2 lbs, the max my left arm can lift without pain

But now, I'm gonna make the number 2 my friend.

2 miles to walk a day with my new nike+nano
2 miles i want to be able to run without pain in my leg by Feb 15th (one year anniversary of my surgery)
20 lbs i want to be able to lift with my left arm by July 7th (2 year anniversary of seperating my shoulder)

It's not a New Years Resolution, cause I never really liked those... It's a "I'm just gonna do it" thing. So thanks to Patrick for his posts on the Nike+ it made me go and get it. I can't beat you, but I'm working on it.
