this is becoming pathetic

I was hobbling around on my crutches and I stooped down to pick up some kid laundry laying on the floor; I felt a sudden burst of pain in my lower back and I fell to the ground in pain. My back has been alternating between dull pain and spasms ever since. Yesterday I had to attend a referee clinic for Karate in MacKenzie. That was very difficult. It involved lots of standing, making calls during a kumite match. I made it, but I was exhausted from dealing with the pain all day.

you were doing what?

I was participating in a secret form of martial arts exersize (basketball game for warm-up), when my right ankle folded over and down I went. I didn't even think to do a proper break fall. Now I have an ankle the shape of a softball, and bruises on the back of my head and my butt cheek. What was I saying in my previous posting about agility, flexibility...etc? I think it will be weeks before I can train as I can't even put any weight on the foot. I am using crutches to get around...it is very frustrating for me as I am always busy doing something. Sigh, this boredom shall crush me.

Where have I been?

I apologize for not being able to blog recently. There has been a lot of illness in our family. We are on the mend now.

Year End

I am not in the habit of making resolutions that I can't or won't keep, however, I do like to take inventory, make sure all my personal accounts are up to date, and forgive any bad debts. Tomorrow I will write a new number on all correspondence; 2005. This symbolic act gives the illusion of a fresh start. This year, I have decided to concentrate on keeping a good balance with all that I do, stay in the black, and even put a little away for emergencies, if you know what I mean. Whatever you do to on New Year's eve, may it be every bit as refreshing.

Easy Start

This is my first post. I have no idea where this blog will go, I just have a sincere desire to express in another medium. It is part of a new year resolution of sorts.

For everyone out there enjoy your holiday. Think about all the blessings in your life. Mine are the love of God, family, friends, a purpose...and a home in this country of Canada. It is a blessing to live here.
