Defect

Well, after two cancelled appointments, many phone calls, a trip to the emergency room and a big headache I saw an orthopedic surgeon about my wrist this morning. The good news is there is no fracture (duh!) and the bad news is that apparently the two bones that make up your arm: the ulna and the radius, are supposed to be the same length. I have an abnormally long ulna. While that makes no difference at this point he felt the need to keep telling me it was a defect. I wanted to ask for a refund but he didn't seem like the type to appreciate dry humor. So that's over, the cast is gone and I am back to a normal life unless it keeps hurting and then I will have to have an MRI and such. I am very optimistic that things will be fine.

On another front I got my hair cut yesterday and of course the kids all had an opinion about it, thankfully I have learned to let it go and not take it personally. Also, one of the girls wanted to know why I wasn't wearing heals today and I told her that I don't have to wear them everyday - she though they would match my outfit better :-)

It rained today and it is cold, two very monumental things in Yuma! Talent show tryouts after school should be interesting, I will keep you updated!

Ooh - they'd better get used to me not wearing heels. I can barely stand them for the 6 hrs of Baker and that's 2 in the car. I am thinking flats only:-)

Ah come on you guys - you know that heels make your legs look longer. Oh right.... not necessarily needed.:)
