Has it really been so long?

I’ve been so bad about blogging this year. It’s mid-March and so much is going on! First, an update on the wrist. I’m weaning off of the wrist splint and doing some strengthening exercises. As I type this, I have no splint on. It makes typing MUCH easier! I am able to write better, draw [...]

Tripping

So, I tripped Thursday evening. I thought it was nothing and that I just bruised my knee. Well, by Friday afternoon, I had swelling in my right hand and realized that I’d broken my fall with my outstretched hand. After a day of keeping it in a brace (which I had because I use it [...]
