The Pain in Blogging

So I have been absent from the world of blogging lately. It is not entirely my fault though. I really wanted to be on here and share some of the things that I have been up to, but alas, my doc told me that was a BIG FAT NO!!!

You see, I have been blessed with some serious tendinitis in my right arm... It has been a persistent problem throughout my college career, and now that I am in my last year it seems to have gotten a lot worse than it was even last year. Pain, tingling, and numbness is not helpful me being a part of the blogging world at times. There are days that I can't write so I have to record my classes. I have to wear a lovely little compression glove every day, and a "tennis elbow" band on my arm a lot of the time.

Recently I went to the doc. She told me that I had to take a break or risk some costly physical therapy or surgery if i mess up my arm more. So what does that mean?? No golf *sad*, no taking notes (use a tape recorder now), daily exercises, and the hardest: "as limited computer use as possible". I was allowed to type a paper if I had it, but other than that I wasn't on the PC. And I was having some serious withdraws from my favorite sites. I mean how did I survive without Facebook, Myspace, WeddingBee, The Knot, and Gmail . Well, now that I have been released back into the World Wide Web, I will have to update some recent progress....

Has anyone else had some unexpected issues arise in the midst of planning a wedding using primarily online resources??
