A quick update. Sorry I haven't been writing much, although I really want to. My powers of concentration have waned tremendously since the accident. I get little headaches after a short while, plus the lower back pain is always there.

I have, however, picked up a moleskin notebooks (as suggested by my Bro). I sketched out two ideas for a childrens book (gee, I wonder why that is on my mind) the other day and hope to expand them shortly.

My life is almost all waiting these days. Waiting for the Bureau of Disability to decide if I get Disability Insurance. Waiting for the accident insurance to settle. Either of which would allow me to start the career counseling and retraining process. I'm waiting for my back to heal, to see if the latest procedures will work, to see if I will ever heal.

It sounds depressing, I know. But I don't spend all my time thinking about it. Life goes on, even if it is in slow motion sometimes. Plus, little Indigo is on the way and I have new responsibilities to him now.
