Keep Your Eye On the Ball


Well You can't see too much yet, but I am going to have a black eye. David and I started to get ready for our softball season today and to make sure I would be able to throw the ball. The first ball David threw to me got lost in the sun and when I didn't feel it in my glove I knew I was in trouble.

BAM! Right in the eye. This is not what they mean when they say keep your eye on the ball. haha.

Well I am pretty sure that I will be able to throw. I tried lefty too and felt pretty awkward.

David's advice to prevent this from happening in the future is to catch the ball. Good advice babe, thanks!

Well I will keep everyone posted on our softball season, we are set to start practice next week and should start sometime in March.

Getting On Board

Well I see that a few of my family members are starting blogs and thought it would be a good way for people to keep up with me. Also a good way for me to keep up with me, I always forget events that happen when it has been a while.

I have been living in Texas for just about nine years now and I LOVE it here! I do miss the mountains and getting to see family all of the time, but I don't think I could live in the snow anymore.

I would have to say the biggest thing going on for me right now is my right elbow. I broke it when I was two and had to have two surgeries done on it. Within the past few years it has been starting to hurt and last year I got it evaluated. I found out that I have arthritis, bone spurs, bone fragments floating around and the ends of my bones didn't form all of the way. My arm hurts worse when it is cold or if I am doing heavy and repetitive movements. The doctor did say that a surgery to clean out the joint would probably help.

I am working in a physical therapy office with a chiropractor and a massage therapist and I love it! Chiropractic has really helped me and wish that I would have been introduced to it sooner.

Well that is all I have for today.
