Argh..I'm going to go crazy

[bmccasland]

And I even still have an unopened bag. but not for looonnnngg

So CC, I think of you everytime I open the refrig. Although since it has finally cooled off, maybe I can store them in the cupboard.

I'm not nuts yet! I have managed to survive two weeks of forced leave!

Thank you for all your replies & putting up with my crazy q's. To all on facebook, thanks

Beth-i'd send more but they might melt! I can't believe you still have a pack

I found some good books & have had lunch with some friends. A friend is taking me to a club shooting range on sat-i'm going to watch!

Next week is when the fun begins! Back to work & taking work life a bit slower. I took the train today & realize I won't be able to sit down as my leg sticks out too far!

I still feel guilty about being the slowpoke on the sidewalk! As long as i;m not in the way, i'm cool.

Who knew that being injured could be so much fun!

Don't feel guilty. You're injured! Glad you've survived so far. You'll be better before you know it.

I hope you are healing well - and quickly!

Oh heavens - enjoy it! You have the perfect opportunity to act like a crotchety old lady, get in everybody's way and yell at cyclists buzzing you. Nobody dares talk back to somebody wearing bandages and a splint

OK... coz you wants a leeeetle fun, riiiiiight? Don't travel at rush hour if you can avoid it... but DO travel by train.... here goes

DO sit down
DO make sure legs stick out

Watch all the people strying to be considerate as they "cross-country" across you to avoid touching your legs... how far will they contort and put themselves out to avoid giving you any discomfort...

Watch all the faces as people glance at your injury and try to figure out what you have done...

When people do ask you, be a different persona each day... and try and find as many different ways to tell your story as possible... you know... give an "organ recital" where you go into medical detail like a docomentary, another day give a version of someone who can't stand pain but has to go in to every detail anyway, then a version of someone who regularly breaks their body in daring death-defying feats and this is as no more than a scratch...

Could be a lot of fun!

[crazycanuck]

I'm sorry to bother you kids again..Just some observations...

I keep reminding myself it's all about patience. Patience grasshopper..
I am not the most patient person with others, never mind myself!!!

I thought this would be an easy-ish road in terms of time but have learnt not so! I am starting to really miss the adrenalin rush and everything associated with exercise and it;s only been three weeks

I guess if i have patience I will be rewarded(not sure of the right adjective) with the adrenalin rush soon!

I did a very very gentle private session at my regular pilates studio today. It's a start

Thanks for listening

I don't believe it I now have a face to go with the name! You don't look crazy!
It sounds like you are on your way to keep from going nuts. I am sure your pilates people can help. Maybe try yoga as well, staying away from the injured parts of coarse. Walking, walking, walking, really will help a lot! you just write us when you start going to crazy. Hey you knit? Maybe go take a class in something like that. To keep your hands busy. And that way you won't get bored and reach for any tim tams. as a matter of fact just send them all to me! I will take care of them for you! That's what friends are for!
