A Get Away

…just for the morning.

The day after I hurt my finger I had one of the worst day’s I’d had in a long time. I was boo-hooing at everything that came my way. I was unable to cope with much. Do you know that feeling? Do you ever have those kinds of day?

The gauze I had wrapped my finger in became dried/glued on to my wound with platelets. I had no idea how to get it off and it hurt like… the dickens, I tell you! I tried cutting, pulling and soaking. I was super frustrated and upset about it all. Mad at my self, I guess, for letting it happen. After hours of soaking it I finally managed to pull it off.

The next day I wanted to escape a bit. I headed up one of my favorite canyons to discover this…

    Oh my gosh, Manda! Do I ever know that feeling!!!! The first few days after a broke my finger, I cried and cried at any little thing. I seriously believe that our fingers are tied to our emotions, and when they hurt, it screws us all up. Sorry you’re having a rough time of it. It’s awful, I know, but it does get better!
