Still hurt!!!

Ok this hurt hand thing is really wearing me down. Typing with one finger is also annoying. I hate to complain but it seems like I'm getting really good at it lately. Funny thing is...complaining seems to make my hand feel better! Isn't that strange? When my hand is really hurting and someone is around me, I get very verbal about it. I don't know why that is?!? Is it because I'm looking for simpathy? I don't think so. Is it because I just want everyone to know that I'm in pain? I don't think that's it either. I really think that being verbal about the pain some how relieves the pain a little. I almost always feel a little relief almost emediatly. Isn't that the wierdest thing? If anybody out there reading this blog has any input on this, go ahead and give me your thoughts. And no I don't want to hear "your just a big baby" either. I mean real honest to goodness information on how being verbal about pain may actually be psychosymatically helping me some how to release some of the pain. I think it would be interesting to hear some real opinions on this matter. Meanwhile I guess my family and friends will just have to put up with my whining:)

My Injury!!!

OK I thought I would be well by now! But apparently I was mistaken. I am just as injured now as I was when this whole thing started. I have done everything the doctor has asked of me. I keep my hand taped up and try not to use it. It's hard but I'm training myself to be left handed. This sucks very badly. I would like to go back to work but I just don't think that's possible. I cannot use my right hand ready for use. Oh well, I guess I'll give therapy a try, hopefully that will fix it!!!

I'm injured:(

OH NO! I have an injury. I have been having problems with my fingers on my right hand an am now off of work for 2 weeks. Seems I have tendonitits in my fingers. This Sucks because I love my job, but the Doctor seems to think I may not be able to do my job anymore. She said I may have to find a new line of work. This is so upsetting because I really really love what I do. Soooooo I had better start finding other things I love to do just in case I can't go on with this. One thing I'm trying is photography. I seem to have a knack for it. As soon as Shutterbug.com approves my photos you can see them by picking one of the links at the bottom of this article. Let me know what you think:)

Swine Flu???

My eyes are watering, my throat hurts a little, and I have a curly tail...should I be worried?
Seriously this swine flu thing, aka H1N1 virus has me a little worried! I've been watching the news and reading the paper and I'm really concerned about our safety. Thank goodness I don't have school aged children or else I'd really be freaking out. But still, I don't want any of my loved ones to catch this thing. My youngest sons girlfriend is still in high school and she comes straight over to our house when she gets out of school. Can she bring it to us? I kind of wish they'd close her school district just to be safe. Her school borders the Fort Worth School district that closed every school down for almost 2 weeks. I don't think that virus avoids crossing borders or won't avoid jumping from school district to school district. Some people think that the Health Dept is jumping the gun by closing schools and canceling large events in the area, but I think they are just trying to nip this fast moving virus in the bud. If people keep congregating and continue passing it around, hundreds of people could die. I think It's better to be safe than sorry. So I hope everybody pays attention to the news and does what they advise. Lets stop this thing NOW!
