Or what if I posted every single day multiple times? That would certainly be a lot of posts on this blog. Anyways. I'm really happy. My arm is to the point where I can ride. I mean, I don't have the control that I normally would have, and if the horse I'm riding decided to freak out I wouldn't be able to control that very well... Which is why I am sticking to just my own horses for now, and a few others that I know will be safe for me to ride (Debbie's horse Abby and Rhonda's horse Blitz). I opened a can of ginger ale today, with my right hand. Was very excited about that!! I still can't pick up things that are very heavy... for instance, I cant pick up my laptop with my right hand. That's too heavy (I know. It's bad.), but it's getting better because before I couldn't pick up anything, I couldn't even hold my phone in my right hand. So I am definitely improving. My leg is a little bit more difficult... It is to the point now where the pain isn't too bad, but my whole right leg is just stiff and tense, all the time. If I move at all, my leg muscles tense up way too much and feel like that are about to cramp, but then they don't (probably because I stop doing whatever I'm doing as soon as I feel them start to tense too much). It's even little things, like kneeling down or even just bending my knees.. But again, it is getting a little better. Patience is key, right? I certainly hope so. I was talking to Becka about it, she tore ligaments in her hand a while back (Thanks to Molly, one of Meredith Manor's crazy horses), and even now she still can't fully use that finger the way she did before. So hopefully my arm and leg will be able to fully function again eventually, or at least to the point where I can safely train and ride horses again.
