rebuilding

That was my wrist.. I think about 9 weeks ago now, at Mammoth CA. The unofficial story - snowboarding.. attemping the 20ft jump, 360 spin.. Blindfolded! .. i wish the official story: 3rd day of boarding.. taking it easy... caught an edge and boom! broken radius & ulna. i guess that big chunk of radius that came off also had some little fractures in it too .

So...i've been taking it pretty easy the past two months.. lots of sleep. I had surgery a week later, and am now the proud owner of a metal plate with 4 screws into the wrist, and one little scar.. that when i'm back to 100%.. people who don't know my may mistake for a suicide scar.
But.. i finally feel like i have energy again. I think i'm back to 90%.. wrist probably about 65%.. but that's ok, it's really much better. I just need to finish up with the stretches & exercises & rebuild all the muscle that disappeared with only 3 weeks on no movement.



















Anyway my plans for this fabulous Memorial day weekend, were to do some activities, maybe a hike. Take some pics for this get back into blogging. Well, the weather disagreed with me, no exciting activities. So change of plans: Today is offically reOrg day. I've just purchased some exciting storage items from Target, and when i finish up with this blog.. i will work on clearing up the clutter in my room. I don't know where all this stuff come from :( .. I don't consider myself a pack rat.. i'll throw away old stuff, but i do have a lot of hobbies. Hobbies, that are usually lower on the priority list, so many things in progress with less actually done. Which means bits and pieces of stuff all around. Knitting .. the 98% done sweater etc. so wish me luck, it's me vs. my room today... but i'm feeling lucky :)
