Good Morning!
No that is not a picture of me, but I do love its polevaulting portrayal...
As many of you already know, I do not sleep well... (Nor was last night any exception to this rule). Having been sleeping quite lightly anyway because of a nasty toothache, there was not really a comfortable position with due respect to my mouth, (and the heartbeat that has centralized on my gums)... Knowing that this too shall pass is a relief in and of itself- And had I taken the vicoden for it, I know that I would too soon become addicted to that as it, (dammitallanyway), just hurts that bad! And so I am being stubborn and not taking it. Maybe Santa will bring me a dentist? (And no, not the guy from Rudolph)!
And so, I gave up that fight... As I also gave it up yesterday as I had begun to write out my little cards.
Having taken a nasty spill polevaulting in the backyard about 5 and a half years ago, I have had many problems with my hands not working... (something about breaking my neck rings familiar on that matter). And my right hand has been nonfunctional and downright frustrating for the past year and a half... Its thumb and index finger sorta stuck in the "hold~up" position; although the joints nearest my hand did work, the top bend/grasp has not. (I have already gone through this twice with my left hand).
Getting back to my letters and cards... I found out that it hurt so badly to even hold a pen... Not deterred, I began to write anyway- and to my horror, my penmanship was completely illegible. (Call me 'doctor'); it WAS that bad, and so I decided to wait until I can even hold a pen decent. (You will ALL understand, won't you)?
Yet, in the middle of the night here, even my hand was killing me; and as I opened the fridge door, my hand tingled and throbbed. (What the ...)??? Upon closer inspection, I see that I can actually do this...
You cannot know the pain of phalanges that do not/have not worked... (That it almost made me forget about my stupid tooth)... Almost...
And then, to my complete and utter amazement, I can do this too...
I have been 'teased' with having them function again, but it has not happened. It's a veritable pain in the *** to be trying to type too, (and I never was Speedy Gonzales in that aspect anyway)... I know I am just 'hoping' now, but I think it would be pretty fandamtastic to be able to type normally again, with ALL of my fingers! Yet, since I am clearly bending them both, I need to believe that "this is it!" That they are coming back once more... As God as my witness, I will suffer ANY pain that this might entail to have them return. (Right now it feels as though I have pummeled my hand with a sledge hammer)!
I am right~handed, and I have even had times where I have had KC writing out the bills because of my hen~scratching and all... (And I know this is surely NOT life or death, but should you think of it, please say a little prayer that I am right in thinking they are coming back)!
THIS IS GOOD NEWS!!!!
AND I COULD EVEN DANCE ABOUT IT TOO!!! But I don't want to scare the neighbors!
...And now you know the 'rest of the story' of tonights "wonderful, terrible" experience!
Yesterday then, having decided not to have to write in hieroglyphics on my Christmas cards I came back on here and had the most amazing 'laugh til ya die' communiques between CaseyAnne, and DeeAnne too. Too funny, and yet I could not keep up with their young wit and faster fingers. I am glad that Casey will be coming home today- Seems she has been gone so long already...
Jenne and Aaron will be getting married on Wednesday, December 13th. And I would give almost anything to be able to attend... Call me "Doubting Thomas" here, but I would have liked to have seen the ceremony anyway. (And might I say that it's about time these girls are digging in and loving forever)!
I had almost given up hope; mostly because they have never seen ME happily married, (and I believe that is ever so important to be setting the example of a good and solid marriage). More importantly, given the fact that Jennifer and Aaron have been best friends throughout the past 7 years, they already know each others quirks etc etc etc...
Please wish them ALL the happiness and peace in the world! For I surely do!
I also hope you all have a wonderful Sunday. (I think I am going to find that sledge hammer for my tooth)!!! hehehe 'ouch'
XOXO
Anne
