Broke my wrist!

Well, July 3rd I was at the barn feeding horses & I got knocked down by Mister & broke my Scaphoid bone in my right wrist. (yes, im right handed!) Blake & my parents came to my rescue & took me to the ER. Three days later I had a huge "Munster" HOT PINK cast put on for 2 weeks. Boy was that thing hot & itchy!!! It came up slightly above my elbow. Holding Rosebud was really difficult with that thing on!!! But i had a lot of help from amazing friends & family!!! Thank you to everyone who was there for me!!! Y'all are such a blessing! Now i have a shorter, below the elbow, sky blue colored cast that i will wear for 5 weeks. When they take that one off I will have more xrays done to see how the bone is healing & depending on those results I may have to get another cast or a splint. Im praying for the splint!!!!

With my right hand out of commission I have learned to be somewhat left handed now. I think ive finally gotten used to doing the most difficult thing a right handed person would have to do left handed!!! (Lets just say it happens in the restroom after nature calls!) It was funny at first how i would be doing something with my left hand & try to be doing it the right handed way. Example: pouring milk out of the carton. I would pick it up with my left hand & start to pour it the same way as i normally did, only to discover that it doesnt work very well & i would have to turn it around. Just one of many examples.

But overall i'm coping just fine! Learning to adapt. Im just hoping & praying that I will recover quickly!!!

Teething!

Rosebud has been so fussy these past few days it has to be her poor teeth moving around down there under her gums! POOR BABY!!!! This all started right at her 4 month BD. Right now numbing gel, frozen/cooled teething rings, & tylenol are mine & her friends! So far she is still sleeping at night just fine, but her naps arent usually very long during the day. Im hoping this goes away shortly & doesnt bother her constantly for the next few weeks until her teeth finally do come through. Her gums dont show any true evidence of a tooth under there pushing its way up, but who knows, one day i may check & there may be a tooth!
