I am reading them though!!

I still have my fingers strapped up, so typing is hard.  I am usually a very fast touch typist, so am finding it very hard.  In fact I am finding all sorts of things hard.  Until something happens, you do not realise how much you rely on having both hands.  Mucking out the pony and goats is a Challenge, and tipping buckets of water into the goats tubs ......I cannot even write anything.

Unable to work, so employer not happy.  Going back to the fracture clinic on Thursday to see what they say.  I am a bit worried as, although I have been bending my finger, as they told me to do, it will not bend very much, and any movement makes it really hurt.  I know its only been two weeks, but I  am so behind with jobs round the farm, and so much to be done ....suppose I need some patience!

What have you achieved that you would normally would not? Meditation is good when the chips are down. I am waiting to have some major surgery that is going to knock me out of action for about three months, no work, no lifting anything so will be fully empathising with you very soon. Hopefully though I will still be okay for typing! Hey could you get a speech recognition package?

Hope your surgery goes well .....puts my problem into perspective - at least its just mY fingers, and nothing major.
