Back home

After a very busy summer with family etc. and a horrific accident hiking last Sunday. I am attempting to return in GW2.

 I fell hiking last Sunday, down the mountain, shattered my forearm, wrist and hand, bangged up but alive! lol I hiked out for about 4 hours to the car with Jaz. 2 days later I had plates and screws put in to fix the damage and will attempt to play tonight and the weekend with one hand LOL.... probably wont be able to hear me on raidcall, the tube in my throat from surgery took my voice temporarily hehehe so I sound froggy.

Happy to be back home tho!!! Missed you all =))

Wow!! Hope you're quick on the mend!

Glad you are back. Now stop tripping over your feet. ;) hehe Actually GW2 has less things to push to play, you just won't be dodging much for now. ;) When my left hand/arm is really bothering me, I do a LOT with my mouse, but usually mess up dodging when I do this.

Welcome home! Glad you're going to be ok.

Gonna try mouse-button dodge here. Seems like cooldowns are so long on 6-10 that you could clicky instead of keypress them. GW2 as post-op PT ^^

Well dang!!! Hope you get fully rcovered soon - and the only other thing I will say to that - Attitude and positive thinking are everything when it comes to recovery. One of the reasons I don't hike on hills or near drop-offs is I am one of the klutziest people alive. I have fallen off of sidewalks and anthills so put me on a trail that has a ledge and I'd be a crumpled mass laying at its base within the hour. I fell off a step stool while decorating a Christmas Tree and broke my wrist - I have taken to walking with a cane not because I need it for a limp, weak knees, or a bad hip - just to give me a third leg for stability when I am close to anything with more than 1/2" difference in grade. One of the reasons I game is to feel as graceful in foot as I feel in my mind.... In my mind I am a ballerina leaping to Swan Lake - in actuality I am one of those birds that always crash lands into it's beak - the gooney bird. When gaming - I can leap off tall moutains, jump fences, and do tumbles like an Olympic gymnist. So, good luck with the recovery - and happy gaming. If I see someone acting goofy and speaking in a frog voice I will realize it is you and the pain meds just kicked in. :) Safe journ.

I usually dont fall and am not clumbsy, but this trail was all boulders and large rocks, 30% incline for 5 miles. thankfully it was 30% decline going back down LOL....

Dang Abbi. What a thing to have happen. So very glad to hear you are getting better. So looking forward to seeing you and Jaz again. You have been missed for sure.

Welcome back! *well wishes hugs*
