    Oh you poor woman. I will need some time before I can put a positive spin on a broken wrist. Are you in much pain?

    Hell, I blame him for the ice patch AND the broken wrist and the failure of world peace too. Wishing you fast healing Lisa! Love you.

    Lisa, they say we are vulnerable to accidents when we are stressed and traumatized. So I will gladly blame him. I am so sorry you missed your day skiing with your son, and now you are dealing with a broken wrist to boot. I hope it isn’t your dominate hand? And I hope you don’t have to ask for too much help from DW? As if you didn’t feel vulnerable enouugh.

    Take care, Lisa. Weekend’s almost over…

    Oh Lisa I am so sorry about your wrist. Damn that sounds so painful. As if you didn’t already have enough going on. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Take extra good care of yourself. xoxo
    p.s. The image of your son singing while he skiied is just so cute. It lifted my spirits. 🙂

    Oh Lisa! That just sucks… It’s all that motherfucker’s fault. Enjoy the pain meds and forget about everything else for the time being. Gentle hug, Liza

    Oh Lisa. You didn’t need that at all. I bet it is your dominant hand because thats the one we reach out when we are falling. Really sorry about that. I hope it will not interfere with your music. 🙁

    thanks for the sympathy sisters. it was my left arm, and luckily i don’t have any gigs for three weeks (thats unusual). by then I’m hoping i’ll be able to play with my left hand a bit, and those are improvising gigs (in amsterdam), so i’ll just make up right hand dominated stuff.

    the cast will be on for six weeks. funny when i was a little girl, i thought it would be cool to break a limb. i’ll just have to get my son to draw awesome pictures on it for me.

    didn’t need this. and i really would like to be having fun skiing with everyone instead of staying alone in the cabin. as if i needed to be more isolated..

    and i hate it that i have seemed to have a lot of health problems and injuries in the last ten years. i hate it that my son has seen me hurt or sick a lot growing up. it will be interesting to see how that changes once i’m single.

    so funny that you would like to blame DW. for that and everything else. i’m sure stress and poor sleep contributed. there’s my wake up call, I’m going to try even harder to get enough sleep… i haven’t been sleeping well for a month now. (fucker)

    its sunny here, i’ll do some work, have a hot tub, shower
    (that will be a challenge!’), maybe walk into town.

    Hope you meet a fascinating stranger in town, one you wouldn’t have met on the slopes. Hope that one meeting brings blessings for the rest of your life.

    (DW can’t take credit for that, at all.)

    There…Lynn has it. The positive spin. Broken limbs are always a good starting point for conversation!

    Just catching up from taking the weekend off from SOS…so sorry about your wrist & your trip, Lisa! Don’t know what I can say that someone else hasn’t already but just that I’m thinking of you and wishing you a speedy recovery!

    hey girls, i’m back in vancouver. still in pain.. learning to do things with one hand. that sure was a shitty weekend! i think i may have gone through some deep grief and identity/negative self talk issues that i might not have faced if i didn’t go. i detach so much when I’m here, i don’t think i always feel everything. which might be a good thing. but also good to ht it hard every once in a while. so sad to be with those wonderful families with the thought that i may not be able to do that anymore..

    good news, DW pissed me off on the way home (typical narc stuff, he felt entitled to listen to ‘his’ music, even though my son and i didn’t like it, because poor guy had to drive the whole way home.. um… and refused to drive down the street to the next bathroom, made me walk. um…).

    glad he did it though, because my anger returned, and i’m back on track to reclaiming my life!

    xo,

    Made you walk to the bathroom when he could have drove you what an asshole. These dicks get off on the most trivial shit. Refusing to drive to a bathroom andante you walk. TOTAL DW. Lisak can I kick him in the nuts???

    I’m glad you’re back home? Mostly I’m glad you’re pissed and back to reclaiming your life. I tore the tendon in my left elbow almost all the way through a couple of years ago and had to have it surgically repaired so I had 6 or 7 weeks of using my right hand (I’m left handed too). It sucks but you do adapt amazingly quickly. Love you right handed Lisa!

    Let’s break both his wrists Nap so he has to beg Lisa to help him unzip his little panties to take a pee. Nope. Busy.

    Lisa, I think there’s a song in there somewhere:
