Its Come to Crawling


There seems to be little I feel I can do these days, and with that I can’t help but feel like every minute I am getting further behind.  I had these great plans and goals at the beginning of the year and have modified and changed them as needed but somehow now I feel like there is little I can change that will keep me going in a forward direction. Surgery on my hand = no hand and arm movement & no lifting, okay not great but I still have my legs and can get some extra km’s and running in.  However, it would seem that in my effort to stay moving and keep a little bit of sanity, I have over done other body parts. Intense pain on the base of one of my feet have me walking off balance and with a limp which is throwing my knees, hips and other foot all out of whack. I now find I’m going to a number of appointments and am limited in all movements that include using my feet. Fabulous! I’ve had my share of injuries and discouragement and I have always tried to find some positive, some gift and to keep some semblance of a smile but to be honest, it’s getting harder. So as I sit in my pity party, going through photos (because I don’t need my legs or both arms), I found this quote I had taken a screen shot of at some other time in my life that I must have seen as a significant note to self.

 

Well I’ve never been able to fly, not able to run right now, walking is with a limp, pain and in circles, so I guess I’ll try crawling in a slow effort to keep moving forward, at least till my knees give out!

I took this pic at the vet clinic this week, just cause it made me smile!
