Niagara Falls in September

A few more pics from our visit to Canada and Niagara Falls, 

it was quick and amazing and I'd definitely would go again.

A-ma-ZING!

The sheer majesty of Mother Nature.

Oh Canada!

Niagara Falls is behind those trees somewhere, I can see her mist!

And the Canadian Falls at night!

More to come...

It was a glorious day

in the mist and spray!

Well at Least I Am Not Claustrophobic...

So, still out on STD since my niece's wedding in early July.

After getting that pretty hot pink cast removed, 

I went to PT for two weeks.

Wrist still not very flexible,

swollen and still hurt.

Last PT appointment was followed by my 

follow up appointment with the Ortho doctor.

My wrist was bothering me during PT and I was glad

I went to doctor appointment after PT instead of vice versa.

As is SOP, I went in and had an X-ray done.

Well, as my luck would have it, there on this film was

yet another broken bone that did not show up on previous images.

Sooooo....

Doctor wanted an MRI so he could better see what was going on and...

he signed me out for another month.

Yesterday, I had my MRI and found that I am not claustrophobic,

at least when you go in head first, laying on your stomach and your

injured wrist laid out above your head.

I almost fell asleep since I decided to close my eyes.

Never knew that the top and bottom of the MRI machine were open. 

I thought you went into a closed bottom tube (kinda like the body refrigerators

found in morgues).  

The technician was very pleased with my lack of movement... made for great images.

Waiting for doctor to get results and analysis to find out what the path forward for my injury will be.  Could be anything from recasting to splint to who knows what.

At least I am off until September 29 for now.

Had I known I'd be off from work this long, I would have scheduled a get-a-way.

Coco is 12 weeks and my STD is holding at 6 weeks...

And counting.

I won't be back until September at least.  

YAY!

This break due to a break is working out rather well.

Now to find a new place of employment to start going to, 
how wonderful it would be to walk back into the office in September,
and hand in my letter of resignation!

Ah, what a dream come true that would be.

But I've not heard back from any of the job applications I've submitted...

I'll keep on applying though, I really need a change.

One More Week Then It's Bye Bye...

To this hot pink cast.

One more week then it's off disability and hello to the job.

Hope the doctor says one more week after removal so I can 'exercise' my wrist...

What do you think? Yeah or nea to one more week post cast?

So I needed a break...

then I got a break!

Shame it takes a break to get a break.

Whaddya think of the hot pink?

Reach and Raise Yoga on the Steps

Particpated in Reach and Raise, 

fka Yoga on the Steps today.

Really a nice time spent with my daughter

and one of her closest friends.

This was my first time participating

and its 15th anniversary.

I think I'll do it again next year.

I think I'll get back into doing yoga too.

BTW, for you Rocky fans, it was held on 

the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum.

Of course the BEST part of the day was

the Mimosas post Yoga!

wink, wink! ;)
