Pardon the pun. Today I’m quite literally blogging singlehandedly – as in with one hand – since my right hand has been reduced to a club confined to a cast for the time being. Sigh…
I guess I should explain. I wish I could say I broke my hand working on some awesome DIY or Dreamhouse reno project, but sadly that is not the case. Last night I picked a fight with a set of stairs on the GO train on my way home. And lost. EPIC fail! I’m sure anyone who knows me well probably isn’t surprised. Clumsiness is kinda my thing – in my defence though, in my 33 years this is the first time I’ve broken anything…
The casualties of war:
So it looks like I’m gonna need a new pair of shoes. That AND things might be a bit quiet on the blog for a little while – at least until I get used to left handed typing (or can fashion some sort of stick or poker to use with my club hand, lol). Cause as much as I love my WordPress iPhone app, my left thumb is getting tired already.
Kes will be picking up a bit of the slack over the next few days so it’ll be a slightly different voice but we’re still here! And I’ll still be around on facebook & twitter so drop me a line!
Have any of you sustained a similar injury? How long did it take to heal? What’s the most bone-headed thing you’ve ever done to hurt yourself? We’d love to hear your stories!
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Ack! Smooth and quick recovery to you!
I have to admit I snort/chuckled at “reduced to a club”.

I have to say I gasped at the sight of your….shoes! lol! You can shop with one hand right? 😉 Speedy recovery!
Tash @ thedreamhouseproject
Lol! I know right!! I didn’t see them until I was in the hospital waiting room & I gasped too! My mom was like “THAT’S what you’re worried about right now!?”

Has your arm tottally healed?Hope you feel better and dont have any pain.
Tash @ thedreamhouseproject
Thanks Alex! My hand has since healed – tho I still notice a slight loss of strength from time to time & soreness particularly after long periods of use (not so convenient when trying to undertake DIY projects, lol!) It’s a work in progress tho & for the most part it’s better. Thanks for stopping by!
