Down an Out

 
Almost three weeks ago I broke my wrist at a Crossfit class attempting to do box burpees! this has definitely been in the top most painful things I have endured. 3 weeks later it still hurts as bad as the first day.

I started with a nice pretty and sturdy purple cast. However, by day 3 my wrist was very swollen and my fingers were numb. I began having a lot of anxiety over the tightness of the cast. By the time I made an appointment and saw the doctor my anxiety was extreme.

The doctor agreed to give me a Thumb Spica instead of a new cast. So far I think the spica was a good decision. Though when I sleep and move around a lot, I don't feel it is as secure or sturdy as I may need it to be.
 
So that's where I have been! It is not the easiest thing pecking out all my words on the keyboard...but, it will do!
 
For fun, here is a short list of fun two-handed tasks that are hard to do now:
  • Butter toast
  • Button my pants
  • Brush my teeth
  • Curl my hair
  • Shave my left armpit
  • Open the lid on kid's cups
  • Open pain pills
  • Open doors
  • Cut with scissors
  • Change the radio station in the car
  • Buckle my seatbelt
  • And last, but no least, push a grocery cart with three kids in tow while others stare at the poor mom with a broken arm.
  •
