Another day in recovery Posted Jun 9, 2009 01:23 AM
Today I spent the day sleeping in late, talking with my husband Lee and my daughter Christina . I also spent quite a bit of my day reading other ladies messages and trying to figure out what I wanted to receive from joining this group of wonderful souls. As I sit here contemplating on that thought, I'm satisfied that whatever I'm looking for, I will find in due time. With so much time available to me as I recover with this broken arm, it finally allows me to do something that I don't normally have time for. And that is TIME - to do what I want (with limitations of course!). You don't realize how fortunate you are to have two working arms when you have them. I will never take having a fully working body for granted again! Maybe this is the lesson I'm supposed to take away from this experience. I do know that once this arm is healed, I will begin immediately to shed the excess weight on this body of mine. It's been hindering so many things in my life. It's TIME for me to start taking care of myself and to take advantage of EVERY DAY that I have. ~Blessings

Hi Linda,
Sorry to hear about the broken limb. Great to realize we can learn something from our tragedies.
Oh that 'gonna do' list, nothing like putting it off tomorrow.....how well I know and understand that. When I was only 23,,,,,yes centuries ago...I ruptured my achilies tendon, I was in a leg cast for over 6 months, it only slowed me down for a month or so., I was too stubborn to just lay around. I find ways to adjust and accomplish much any way. LOL
That of course is AFTER I have exhausted my loafing around lay in bed book reading time. LOL
Hope you have a speedy recovery,
God Bless

Dear Linda,

Life has a way of getting our attention, doesn't it ?:|

The wonderful thing about you... You recognize the message & see the Gift in its meaning.

I recently had a 'similar' experience that woke me up to Finally Listen & Act on what my Inner Voice has been gently whispering for years! I can be a stubborn girl sometimes yet gaining more Wisdom & Trusting in that Guidance more and more every day.

Here's to learning our lessons easily... taking good care of our Self and Living our Life Alive!

I Wish You a Full Recovery as You EnJoy Your TIME :-x

Much LOVE to You*
~Amy

LIVE ALIVE! Community

Linda,

May you have a speedy recovery and have both arms working for you again soon! :-x

Enjoy the opportunity to have some time for yourself and do a few things that mean the most to you. Perhaps the broken arm is a sign of something else that should be repaired in your life. Sometimes things show up in the most unexpected places and ways.

Aloha Linda,

How fortunate you are to be able to see the beauty in being winged while it's happening! I am so sorry that you are experiencing the dull - long - ache of a broken bone, but I rejoice with you in your ability to accept the experience with grace, and realize you will never ever take your arms for granted again.

A while back, I was couch bound for weeks after a car accident. It really woke me up! A colossal drag at the time, when I could once again stand and move and be pain free, I started doing all those things I had relegated to "Someday"

Because... this is Someday!

Have a blast exploring all this community has to offer. As a founding member, who has been here since the get go, I can truly tell you that I have developed so many deep and valued friendships here, and have shared many many experiences with these incredible women that have greatly enriched my life! Enjoy this Linda!

When Ellie Drake speaks... listen closely. She is a gift.

And when that arm is whole again... Woo Hoo! Katie Barr the door! You are going to love the freedom and the new found appreciation!

I look forward to getting to know you Linda.

Let It be Fun!

Linda!
Yes indeed it is the small whispers that mean the most.... when YOU listen.

Congratulations on your discover~

Linda, I hope your recovery goes well and I agree with you that the body should not be taken for granted...realizing that more from the survival of a recent fall.
