Got to watch those familiar strangers you meet on the Internet! I met a bunch of bloggers at Blogstock '08 950 miles from home. It was great, I had only known one of our group before the Blogstock. There may be a '10 version. ..
I'm mending. The real worry and fear of losing power when I can't walk was a huge weight for a couple of days. Once that danger had passed, I was able to focus on healing myself and am making progress.
Today was the first day in a long time that hasn't absolutely sucked butt-and it has had it's moments and I've had to go lie down. Apparently I've turned a corner and can see that indeed I will get better.
My toilet is backed up and the dog room has sprung a leak-that's all the new trauma for today. I'm not using crutches at all, though I'm still wobbly and I can't really sit down-I have to lie down and be propped up with legs hip in the air AND lungs up high too-I look like a pretzel.
I'll be in the house for a few more days-there is a solid sheet of ice under the snow and I can't sustain any more impact-the body parts that aren't already sore for the first one are sore from doing the work of the ones who can't-my whole body is kind of grumbly.

It is uncanny how you can capture a feeling with so few words.

Considering all the people we know on the internet, it is uncanny that they remain unmet. Love this one Debra.
I'm wondering how you are feeling? I am just back from California - just catching up!
