Good news. Bad news.

Good news: Left arm almost as good as new just very weak and tender still.

Bad news: I broke my right arm last Thursday. Serious. Monday the Ortho Specialist said it looked good considering they did a horrible job casting it in Urgent Care and he knew I was a lot of pain. They should have set it with my hand in a 'natural' position and not straightened out like they did. The cast kept constant pressure on the injury and didn't allow any swelling to go down. He kept saying to me "I am SO SORRY!" he is so sweet and gentle. (in his late 60's!! so don't read anything into that!)
He will check it next Monday to determine if I'll need surgery...right now he's thinking not. : )
Feeling awed by God's grace and goodness to me (Body cast came to mind) and grateful that I am never alone and without defense. God is on my side.

Have you ever had something happen that made you scratch your head and wonder? Most of us have! Well, I am wondering now. Is God sending me a message or is it pure coincidence? The wall clock in my bedroom stopped three weeks ago while the kids were gone. I replaced the battery. This weekend it stopped again. It's still stopped 'cause I'm one armed and lefty at that! Tuesday when I got to work the wall clock in my lab was stopped. Grrr.. I cannot reach it. All day it bugged me when I looked at it and it was still 7:45. Then when I arrived home Tuesday evening I noticed the dining room wall clock had stopped... What is with time standing still??
