Broken Finger Setback

Saturday was my best friend's wedding.  I haven't even had the opportunity to write about yet.  The entire day I was without a computer...yeah, I'm not quite sure how I made it either. The day was picture perfect - and I, of course, will be writing about it soon enough.

That evening while burning calories on the dance floor I pulled off some fancy move that left me with a broken finger. I didn't realize it was broken at the time as after three glasses of wine my pain tolerance was rather high.  Sunday, I woke up to a throbbing finger and distant memories of clutching my hand in discomfort the night before. Even though everyone I asked said it was fine, I decided to visit the ER and get xrays - I just wanted to be rest assured that it would heal properly.  All the while at the hospital, I was feeling rather silly for even coming.  So you can imagine, I was quite shocked to learn that it was indeed fractured. 

So here I am.  My once 90+ word per minute typing (just guessing here) has now dwindled down to about 10.  I am well aware that there's a gazillion things that would be worse than a minor broken finger setback, but I am human.  Frustration does hit me here and there when tasks - such a typing -  takes me 10x longer than it normally would. 

There's a lesson in everything, right? Perhaps my patience needed to be tested some.  Over these next four weeks of healing,  bear with me as I work my way through the kitchen, getting my posts up, responding to your emails, and making the workouts happen.  Tomorrow I meet with my trainer...should be interesting!

In the meantime...

Keep it clean & enjoy the ride!
