I broke my arm and dislocated my shoulder in a riding accident. I broke that round portion off from the rest of my arm bone and had the ligaments and tendons caught in between the two pieces of bone. It was ugly and painful.<br><br>I certainly understand your fear of being jostled or bumped. The good news is once it heals the pain is just a memory although I know you must be feeling like it's never going to be over so maybe knowing there really is an end to it will help some.<br><br>I'll be thinking of you!Rising Rainbowhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04239592070775412669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8400857785037966628.post-90950888711929085802009-03-24T06:03:00.000-07:002009-03-24T06:03:00.000-07:00Oh Holy Crap Donna!

All the old cliches do seem to fit, but can be somewhat tedious when you're on the receiving end of such sayings, so I will refrain. But...must add one sentiment which comes to mind here: When one window of opportunity is closed, another new and sometimes better opening is made available. Do keep your spirits up and try not to fret (won't change a damn thing anyway), but learn to pray instead and keep in mind that whether you realize it or not; things always have a way of working out the way they're supposed to.C-ingspotshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17744931697050670013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8400857785037966628.post-25073406536883571782009-03-17T11:33:00.000-07:002009-03-17T11:33:00.000-07:00That sounds really painful. :( I am so sorry.

The job market generally picks up starting end of March - April anyway so I am sure you will be in interview mode by the time it's right. Sounds like platitudes but I am sincere. I wish lots of good luck your way.Venushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00113465404424921074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8400857785037966628.post-68884978115109903982009-03-17T07:42:00.000-07:002009-03-17T07:42:00.000-07:00It never rains but it pours, doesn't it??

I have to say, though, that this really does sound like the Universe is telling you to slooow doooown, that things are going to change <i>no matter what you do</i>. <br><br>We depressives don't take change well, do we?<br><br>Could it be possible that this is right what you need? That work - while necessary, because, y'know, money = food and hay 'n' rooves over heads - that that particular job, is not where you need to be at this moment in time? That something better, something different, is headed your way? That this is a time of unprecedented opportunity?<br><br>I don't mean to sound all Mary DolphinsAndFairies, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong, either...<br><br>...also, it doesn't mean bitterness and cursing isn't allowed. I mean, c'mon. Bitter is my middle name.orodemniadeshttp://birchandmaple.blogs.comnoreply@blogger.com
