Happy Late Mother's day to all the ladies. I've decided to brave plinking a short entry in tonight. My youngest daughter says that if you aren't sporting scars from stitches, have stories of casts and hospital/doctor visits, you aren't living a life of adventure. Well, tonight my hand is sporting it's new brace, I'm knocked up with some hydrocodone and well, you know, life is feeling good and fuzzy now.
Because the why is irrelevant and isn't anything to claim a great story by <all right, all right ok I'm embarrassed> we'll just say, I made it a few days out of pure stubborn victory on my part, and didn't let alittle broken something ruin my weekend. Never!!
In true Rebecca style, I've eluded having any sort of cast placed on my defunct parts. I'm 4 for 4 now. The last 4 things I've broke, I've tossed such a pathetic fit, that everytime I've managed to get a removable brace instead of a cast. You just can't fish with a cast on your arm, you can't wade in a river with a cast, but you can fish carefully if you removed your brace, and with a robot boot of a cast you can strap it around your waders.......you get my drift.
Ok, plinking and drugs is making this tough. I'll just say, it was a great weekend that even alittle pain, and a whole lotta rain couldn't ruin. It was good for our friends to get away from town, and let nature add it's own token of healing to a time in their lives when things were so dark. I'm speaking of the ones who lost their daughter just a few weeks ago. <I will write more about it as soon as I think I can get away with not wearing my brace for a few minutes of writing>

Take care of yourself!
Taking your friend's family with you was an act of kindness this Mother's Day weekend. That you did not let your accident spoil the fun, but instead, endured the pain until you got back home is a great testament to your nature. Rest up and give us more when you are felling better.
Sam
What did you do girl? Hope you are fully healed up soon-NO taking that thing off to fish ya here?!!!!
I am glad you had a good time, but are you saying you WENT on the weekend with something broken?? So glad you could be there for your friends, and a happy mother's day to a delightful mother.

Hydrocodone....you don't even want to see me on that med! Sorry you broke a bone, but it kind of lives up to the badass image I currently hold of you! LOL! Enjoy the fuzziness and hopefully you'll be fishing like your ol' self in no time. Glad the weekend met the much needed escape for your friends. Their pain will heal in time, with friends like you how could it not?
Take care :~)
Tammy
Oh man! Hope you feel better and get well soon. Take it easy and rest, so it'll heal. ;)
Ari
hope your arm starts feeling better.......that is a beautiful pic....for someone who was fuzzy you sounded pretty clear!
LOL
ahhh, the brave Rebecca. :D
your right it's hard to fish with a cast on.
but, make sure it heals properly though.
you don't want to have to get it re-broken and
casted again.....ewwwww. just the thought of it.
::shivers::
all this talk of fishing makes me want to go fishing dimmitt.
take care rebecca :)
Glad to hear your weekend went well... NOT glad to hear you broke something... <shaking head> you sound like me. I always tried to get a cast or wrap that I could take off so I could still perform or at least exercise the horses, and it shows now in the breaks/injuries that didn't heal as well as they should! So, leave the brace on and let yourself heal!!

Oh my... This is plinking at it's finest! I hope your hand heals without complications. Glad to see your spirits are high despite the pain. ...but darn it, what did you go break some bones for? (said with a stern voice and finger wagging.) I'm also glad to hear your dear friends joined you. During the saddest of times, sometimes it's simply the hope in the hearts and the faith in the souls that comfort those we love the most.
Best,
Judith

I hope your hand get's better soon. I agree with your daughter. Scars make for interesting stories.
Tami
You and I sound so much alike on the injurous side of life..... ah, the trials and tribulations of a few broken bones! lol Anywho, hope you're feeling better! Even after the drugs wear off! lol And hope the bone heals back right..... **ahem** wear the brace, ma'am---at least part of the time! lol :-D

I like reading your journal. Can I put a link on my journal to yours? Hope your are healing well.
Broken? Stitched? OMG I am so sorry! I was wondering where you've been!! I am very impressed that you are even typing at all! I have never broken a bone. OH, wait. I take that back. I broke my dang TAIL BONE during my daughter's very long, painful journey into the world. It was months before I could sit appropriately again. Happy belated Mother's Day to you as well. I thought of you and your friend who lost her daughter. I can't even begin to try and imagine that pain. Well, take care and don't type to long...Michelle :>)
HOpe you are on the mend and feeling better soon!!...they do give you great drugs for busted stuff dont they!! LOL
I broke my face last year.....Fell off a wheelchair ramp..went head first into Fuddruckers parking lot...busted my glasses, 4 teeth and my cheekbone in 3 places....not to mention the lacerations and bruises...right in front of the main window too..bet that was appetizing to look at while they munched on their burgers!!
IF you feel like reading...the next chapter of How I Came to Be in TN is posted LOL
