Ah, another year gone by without getting to go to Stitches. Such are the perils of moving a billion miles from anywhere.
It's been another slow week in the world of post-surgical recovery. a lot of ups and downs -- days I feel like it's never going to feel better, and days (like today) when it actually doesn't feel so bad. over all i'd say i feel better today than I did a week ago, and I was able to work more this week than last week, so that all suggests a promising trend.
In other news .... it's cold cold cold here in anchor-town. lows tonight in the 20-below range. brrrr. This weekend is "Fur Rondy," which means sled dog races through downtown and other exciting events. But somewhere around 15-degrees I lose my interest in watching sled dog races.
Speaking of races, next weekend is Terry's first foray into ski racing. it's the 20th annual "Tour of Anchorage", which offers four different races between 25K and 50K. Of course, because he's a nut, he's beginning with the 50K. Stay posted for all the details of this glorious premiere!
Oh, and speaking of crazy stuff we're doing now that we're Alaskans, several friends and I have all registered for a weekend seminar offered by the Alaska Dept. of Fish and Game on "Becoming an Outdoorswoman". I'm registered for classes in fly fishing, spin fishing, fly-tying and "dutch oven cookery."
There are also all kinds of hunting/gun-related classes, and outdoor activity classes (skiing, snowshoeing, etc), all of which are pretty much out of the question for me until next year when my shoulder heals. In the meantime, I'll be learning to fish, and cooking up a dutch oven storm.....
