One Thing

So, there is one thing that I have not yet officially announced, and it's not necessarily a good thing.
I have arthritis.
Yeah, I know. It sucks.
But it's only in my wrist.
But it's my right wrist.
And yes it hurts, but the ice therapy I'm doing almost hurts worse.

This fate has befallen me as I am about to enter school full-time again to study piano and that sort makes me uncomfortable.

It isn't like I won't be able to play anymore, but I may not be able to do what I'd hoped to do with my skills.
Also, I think I will have to cut way back on the knitting.

My mother also has inflammatory disease(s) and hers are systemic - all over her body. I would be lying if I didn't tell you that makes me nervous. Of course, I know we aren't supposed to worry about the future, but sometimes a girl can't help it.

To that end, I have been contemplating some changes.

I don't know what they all will be yet, but I know that I won't be knitting a bunch of Christmas presents this year. And also?
Sigh.
Also, I will have to start taking care of myself. I mean, you know, like exercising and stuff.
I hate sweating.
Yuck.

So, one week from now, school begins.
Chris will be out of town.
I will be exercising.
I will be not knitting(much).
I will be playing the piano a lot-lot-lot.
And I will be re-focusing on photography a bit.
I thought about dropping the blog thing, but I think I'd miss you all too much.

I think it's time for me to narrow my focus on a couple of things and really, actually try to do them well instead of busying myself with myriad things that look impressive but don't require a mastery of skill to look impressive.

I don't know.
