Ouch

I've been having a bit of pain in my hands and wrists for a few months now. It has gotten worse in the last 3 weeks though. Pains that shoot up to my elbows, weakness with grip, a bit uncoordinated....MIL says this is carpal Tunnel. Oh joy! SO I've done a bit of reading on it and decided to start wearing braces at night and my magnet wrap during the day. I think I'm going to have to go to braces during the day as well though. I didn't really want to because it definitely limits the things I can do physically.

In other news I had a horse show yesterday. I took Tipping to South farm for an unrecognized horse trial. It was the first one for her and I think she did well. Her dressage score was really good for a first time. She scored a 33 and was sitting 3rd. Three refusals in stadium eliminated us from being scored. Bummer! The course was maxed and very colorful. She gave me a big, "not today Mom" and that was that. We did complete our cross country course though. One refusal at the second fence on course and then she attacked the rest of the jumps. I think it was definitely a good learning experience.

Hannah has yet to start talking to us. She does let us know in her ways what she wants and doesn't want. She makes me laugh constantly. I just love being a Mom....maybe I will retract that statement at some point but for now it's pretty cool.

My friend Laura was supposed to be induced today. I've been wondering how she's doing and if that baby has arrived yet. Hopefully all is well!

We've had a few races recently. My favorite horse in the barn, For Pete's Sake won his first race last week. We had a couple of seconds and thirds as well.

I guess that's it!
