Aren’t you all dying to know how kickball went?!
It was so fun! I was VERY nervous about messing up, MISSING the ball, dropping it, etc., but once I finally RELAXED, it was a lot of fun — and quite a workout!
The bad news is that I am 100% certain the I sprained or dislocated my finger — I actually had to lock/pop it back in! But I almost caught the ball! The team lost (only by one!), but I’m certain that the next game will be better — since I’ll be a pro by then, and all ;)
I think I surprised the Mister with how hard I could kick the ball — I just have to focus on keeping it lower to the ground. Like I said, I didn’t earn my black belt in karate for nothing!
In other news:
I think I might have sciatica ;(
See the red area? Mine feels like tiny gnomes are STABBING me with knives. Not cool.
My leg had been bothering me with shooting pains for the past month or so, but last night I must have done something to really set it off. Needless to say, I am HURTING today.
Has anyone out there had sciatica before? Any helpful suggestions?
I’m seeing a Chiropractor at 5:00 today, so hopefully I’ll get some insight and aid from them.
Wish me luck 
ouch! Sounds pretty painful. Ive never had it, but I really hope you feel better!! Take care of yourself!!
Nooo!! Feel better soon, my dear friend – call me! My mom can suggest some things.
Ouch! Hope you’re feeling better soon.
Oh no! I’m sorry about your finger and the sciatica. I hope you get bettter and can continue with your awesome kicking!
Oh my gosh! I hope all of your battle wounds heal up!!
ahhh i really hope you feel better!!!
