Heh heh whoops...

So those of you who have known me for any length of time know that I'm typically really bad at keeping up with these "talk about my life" sorta things, be it Facebook, LJ, and now apparently FA joins the list. Whoops. To my credit, though, I kinda have good reason.
For those of you who haven't seen me recently or heard through the grape-vine, I had to have surgery in early March. Tennis elbow and ulnar nerve problems in my right arm (the dominant one, of course!). Recovery has been going well, though I've got a gnarly scar. Unfortunately, in the meantime, tennis elbow has popped up on the other side because of over-use while I rest the operated side. Wheeeeeeee. We're hoping I get healed up good and can switch the stress back to the right side before I end up doing permanent damage and needing surgery on that side too. Only time will tell, though.
Needless to say, my computer time has been fairly limited. The recovery process hasn't been easy, and by the time I'm home from work, I've been flat out exhausted and hardly able to stay awake. It's getting better slowly, but I'm pretty limited in what I can do with two bum elbows. So this means no knitting, no writing, no sewing, no nothing. I've managed to do a little gaming (though I have to be careful what games I pick up), but for the most part I've been doing nothing but reading. Hence the radio-silence.
I don't know when I'll be back to crafting. My hands are itching to do something creative, but I just don't have the strength yet. It's really frustrating, because my trial doll has one foot completed and I was getting ready to start on the leg, and I have a gorgeous sewing project just waiting for me to get started. Oh well. Hopefully my posts will get a little more regular again once my life consists of more than "got up, went to work, came home, soaked in hot tub, read book, went to bed".
