I have never actually broken anything that I am aware of, but somehow ended up with a cast on my right arm because of some new drill I tried to do during volleyball camp. I pulled or strained the ligaments on top of my thumb and now I feel so unproductive it's ridiculous really... I can't write, so that basically leaves me without the ability to think. I am definitely starting to understand where my obsession with writing utensils comes from...
This is the view from my front yard - the sunrise was absolutely beautiful the other day - I had to take a couple of pictures of it...
I am reminded today how many people in my immediate family are/were in the United States Armed Forces. It is amazing to me that they and so many countless others are willing to sacrifice their lives, time with family and loved ones, careers, and everything else just to be a part of something bigger. It's a shame that we don't celebrate them more often then just on national holidays...
That being said, I am also reminded how much I take my family for granted. They are amazing, and I am looking forward to spending time with them today celebrating our country and our freedom.
