Yes, I have gotten caught up in the CHATGPT phase. It's been a great distraction.
I wanted to come on my blog and explain why I haven't been posting. Well, sort of.
My poor, tiny little mom had surgery, which has taken up a good portion of my time. However, the biggest reason I haven't been posting is that it's too painful to type. I'm not talking emotionally; I'm talking about physically. Around the middle of March, we were having some brisk winds, and I went to let my daughter's large black Lab outside, and the wind pushed the door right as he pushed it open wider. That day, he stepped on my left foot, so I had two joints screaming in pain. My doctor ordered some x-rays of the joints and found that my left elbow is bone on bone, absolutely zero cartilage; I broke it in 1986 when I was bucked off a horse, barely pregnant with my oldest and didn't know I was, it wasn't set right so, it didn't completely heal.
This is what my left elbow looks like.
Until I get in to see an orthopedic surgeon, I will be posting minimally.
This blog is eighteen years old, and I've blogged during my divorce, my cross-country move, hospitalizations, and surgeries, even when my dad was passing. I think it's okay if I take a break for a bit. Believe me, once my elbow is stronger, I'll be posting again. This is where my heart is. I hope you'll stick around until I am back up to speed.
Thanks,
Andi
