Injury Blogging

Last week, I mentioned that I was sick blogging due to a mishap I experienced during the March Storm of '08. In actuality, it would have been more correct to say I was injury blogging since my body was twisted like a pretzel during a fall.

Imagine me, although to a much lesser extent, in the opening segment of ABC's old Wide World of Sports program where a guy loses control on the ski jump and tumbles over and over just as the voice-over announces "AND the agony of defeat."

Yes, for the past week, I have been immobile due to hyper-extension of both knee joints and pulled upper and lower leg muscles. My left wrist was broken so, effectively, three out of four of my primary appendages have been out of commission ... for a week ... and counting. Needless to emphasize, blogging has been low on the priority list.

Improvement has been slow. For example, I can now move from one room to another ... very slowly. And, I do mean very slowly. It will be at least a couple more weeks before I'm reasonably functional just walking around.
