In which I dwell on my wounded paw
Typing is hard with a brace on my right hand, so I am handwriting more. A few days after fracturing my hand, I was feeling pretty bummed about not getting to do the fun stuff. I wrote out a mind map and it helped me feel a little better about being benched and also being forced to rest. I always think that I will welcome opportunities to rest (I fantasize about them often enough), but it never really works out like that.
Not sure how visible the video will be, so here is the final mindmap.
It is so hard to pause. If you haven't yet read Miranda Hart's new book, I Haven't Been Entirely Honest With You, this would be a nice time to read it. Her thoughts on healing are profound, but her writing is funny and approachable.
I'm so sorry to hear about your hand! Love the mind map. Wishing you patience and a speedy recovery.
