Christmas started out great. We went to a beautiful Mass last night. The kids woke us up nice and early and Santa was good to all of us. Our guests arrived right on time and we had a fabulous dinner. Then we thought we’d take the kids to try out those new ice skates. Need I say more?

On the bright side, having an obviously deformed wrist gets you seen right away in the ER. On the not-so-bright side, I’m having trouble typing with one hand and the sweet medication that was injected into my bone before the closed reduction is wearing off, so I think I’ll call it a day. Say a little prayer that I won’t need surgery. I should know in about a week.

Merry Christmas.

Update 2: The First Street Journal linked – thanks.

It is Monday now and the pain hasn’t subsided. Hopefully in a day or two I will be feeling better.

Update: Zilla linked -thanks! And thanks to everyone for the kind words and thoughts. The pain hasn’t killed me yet, so I guess that’s good.
