Mama Has An Owie

This wrist of mine is wrecked.
It started hurting last Friday, but by Saturday I couldn't use it.
At all.
I went to a "doctor" on Saturday, who never touched my wrist but who alluded to me having a slipped disc in my neck.
I laughed out loud and told him that was not the case and that I would be going somewhere else.

I haven't slept since Saturday night.
Burke is freaking amazing.
It takes a village to get me ready and unready for the day!!

Turns out it is a severely sprained wrist and that the ligament that goes from my wrist to about half way up my forearm is wrecked.

Brace/tape for at least two weeks.
Note: I'll be in Mexico in less than two weeks and I have no time for a weird tan line!!!!

In the meantime, the pain is unbearable at times.
Sleeping sucks.
I'm grumpy approximately all the dang time.
I'm a wee bit triggered because it's my left side.
I don't like not being 100% independent.
I don't like this amount of pain.
I type for approximately nine straight hours at work.
That sucks.
At least my nails are cute.
