Hi Silver -
It is good to hear from you. Contact me through my e-mail if you want, and maybe I can visit you soon. I have a vacation just around the corner. Only two more shifts to work early next week and then I'm free.
My next bike wreck "installment" can be shared with you in person. Maybe it would be better to talk about less stressful things though.
Bette Midler's "Mud will be flung tonight!" CD seems to be a better choice. I have a copy. Haven't listened to it for a long time.
You have surely been tested lately. More than one should be asked to go through.
I am sorry.
I hope you got some sleep and that your weekend has bright moments. The weather will be nice. I'm going for a 25 miler on Sunday. May be my last ride for the year?
Thank you for sharing with us.
Barb
Silver, I'm sorry you're down, but you do deserve to feel sad for a bit. I agree with ksh - decide how long you can be depressed and then stick to it. It's worked for me and it will work for you!![]()
Not that it gets you on your bike any faster, but it might bring a smile to you once a day....if you'd like to be on my picture list (one photo taken by myself sent to your email inbox each day), just PM me and I'll add you. I've included a sample....
Heal well and completely, they found that chip for a reason, honey!
Hugs and butterflies,
~T~
The butterflies are within you.

Broken ribs do seem to take forever to heal, esp because they are in your core and so effect everything you do. There will come a point soon where you will be able to start to do more. They will feel strange, but not painful.
& the arm thing just sux greatly. Esp at this point. Rent some movies and get some trashy novels, oh, and get better.
I'm so sorry for your setback.I hope your arm isn't hurting a lot.Yes, you have reason to think poooor me. Good news about your lung though. Take this time to catch up on all the great reads you've wanted to catch up on. Glad your hubby can spend time with you.
Sorry to hear about your set back. Wish there was some quick, easy way around all the broken bone stuff. If you're not one of those types who gets upset with us philosophical types while suffering, "This too shall pass."
Take care.
(((((Silver))))) I'm so sorry to hear about your broken arm. I'm glad they did find the broken wrist though so they could fix it now and not have problems later due to missing it in the first place. Get well and know we're all here for you.
Don't think of it as getting hot flashes. Think of it as your inner child playing with matches
Hey Silver, sorry to hear about your arm and wrist, but better to find all the injuries now and get them treated than have problems later (which did happen to me). I know it sux when you are in the middle of this, but it will pass. Its up to you how to view these experiences. I view my past injuries as badges of honor, of having led an adventurous life. I also found it helpful when I was recovering to do yoga, since it can be both therapeutic (of course check with your doc what movements are safe) and spritually healing. Feel free to come here and vent whenever you need to, with a typing assistant of course!
