Adventures!!

The past couple of weeks have been filled with adventures for me....physically!
I think I have run into a streak of bad luck!

First, I started going to physical therapy for my back....I think it is an SI joint problem, which causes pain to shoot down the back of my leg.

Second, I had some gum surgery to do a gum graft...which meant that I couldn't ride my bike or swim for a few days....and yes, the weather was gorgeous during that time.

Third, while teaching sewing lessons to some 6 & 7 yr. olds, I cut a piece of my finger off on my left hand index finger.  It was quite the dramatic scene, but I held myself together (except for crying) so that I didn't scare the girls.  My finger was a gusher!!!  I made Amy Harmer go in the sewing room and get the piece of skin so that we could take it to the hospital with us and hope they could sew it back on.  They did sew it back on.  While I was in the bathroom with my finger in the water...thinking that would stop it from bleeding....Amy went in the sewing room to retrieve the girls and call their moms.  She walked in and they were saying a prayer for me.  Isn't that the sweetest thing!  And a child shall lead them.  I have never been so calm and not get sick or nauseated before...I think it was the faith of the little girls and their prayer that got me through it.  I had to get about 10 stitches and I was back to not riding my bike or swimming for a while. Ugh!  Well, I went to the doctor today after 11 days and he gave me the go ahead to ride. yay!

The pictures that I will post are of me in the hospital....I'm not sure if I should post the day 11 pic.....it's gross!

Hopefully I am done with this bad luck streak!
