[xrannie]

went & done it this time! not much else i can say- i was showin out for a guest rider- went into turn a little fast- my trusty xr bucked me off- into a pile of wood/rocks- my helmet crushed my arm in between the rocks- surgery to plate/screw it was tues- ouch- still hurts like hell!

my diet right now- sprite & Lortabs!

she's waiting for mama to get better- no injury to Sally!!

dr.s' work-

I know what it feels like to have your arm broke. Got bucked off my horse 2 years ago, broke my wrist completly in half.

Get well & back to ridin!

xrannie: Sorry to hear about your injury, hope you get well soon and get back on the bike! I was checking out the wallpaper on your laptop..... looks like you are into some serious engines although I haven't completely figured out what that is.

britt21: I have been hurt worse on a horse than I have on a bike. The bike has brakes that actually work and I wear more protection. And the bike only hurts me when I am actually riding it, it doesn't decide to reach out and kick me when I am not expecting it.

I broke both bones in my arm in half and had to get 2 plates and 12 screws. Took me about 13 weeks with casts/splints, etc. Yours doesn't look quite as compound, so give it a month and a half or two months and you'll be showin off your scar and riding agian! Good luck on the healing, and I wish you the best. On the bright side, Lortabs aren't all that bad of a diet, I mean lots of people wish they had some, lol.

Thanks All Y'all!!

you are so right!! i got lucky and just had to wear the brace for 6 weeks and now when i ride or drive-
yeah- tabs are good to have and a lot of people i know are in worse shape = pain wise, on a day to day basis and cant' get a script- i didn't tell anyone i had 'em, NO SHARING!!

THANKS FOR THE WELL WISHES- new update to follow!

OH YEAH...

actually rode real laps on tuesday - yesterday i was kinda sore- today- i'm pretty miserable- leg and arm muscles- i'm HAPPY to say- the broke spot doesn't hurt at all- all that ho'n in my garden got it tuff!!

be vacationing in Hanksville, Utah in september- gas prices have us squirming so we're struggling to come up with ideas to save fuel on the 1700 mile(oneway) trip- maybe pull the bikes with a civic- hell, ride the bikes out there would be the ticket- but i don't know if me n Sally(the xr) would still like each other after that ride.......
