The reason I haven't posted till now is.... that I have an awesome husband. :) He has taken me skiing for the first time this winter. Twice now actually. Skiing is a rush that I thought I'd never be able to experience. He's been a great help at teaching me how to have fun up on the mountain. It's a blast!
The problem is... Now I can't go for awhile. I can't really type that well either... It's sort of a bummer... Trying to learn what it takes to be a writer. For someone who has set goals to become better at writing. A person who loves to type each day and just hear the clicking.
One who now is typing with only one hand. :(
The second skiing trip we took I went on a slope that I wasn't quite ready for... (Which by the way was the beginning of last week for the explanation of missing the first weeks post.)
Needless to say I fell and crashed... A few of times. One of my crashes was a harsh one that even popped off my ski and almost broke my nose. It left me in some pain. Which is now pretty mild thankfully. Anyway, my left wrist and thumb is in a brace. I am getting motion back in my fingers which is nice and the bruising has gone away for the most part. My thumb and wrist is another story though.
I've started my physical therapy to work towards getting out of the brace and getting back to using two hands. I never really thought about how much I use my left hand. Like they always say. Sometimes you don't know what you have till you loose it... Well I've decided to be more grateful to my left hand for all it does for me.
So to be perfectly clear on one thing... I've become more accident prone with the passing years. I expected this from my brother, who was always accident prone, not so much from me. I did tell him a few times however that I looked up to him and hoped to be more like him when I grew up. I think becoming more like him in this aspect was not what I had in mind. However I do think that it's the Lord's sense of humor and love for me.
To finish up this weeks post:
I am excited to be starting school. I attended my first class this weekend and I'm already having fun. I'm anticipating starting my writing classes tomorrow! I hope that this semester can really help me to look within, to find the writer in me. The writer that I hope and pray to become.
Thank you for those of you who offer your support and assistance in my journey called life.
The act of putting pen to paper encourages pause for thought, this in turn makes us think more deeply about life, which helps us regain our equilibrium. ~Norbet Platt
