back to the blog...













Hi Everyone! So, since Facebook got so big, I kinda slacked on my blog. But my friend Paige has inspired me to keep it up so...here is my quick update from 2008...to NOW.

Life is good. Life is better than good..I have been very blessed the past few years. I was able to finally become a homeowner...and I have been doing a job that I LOVE..and able to perform as well. Some highlights include playing Martha in "The Secret Garden " and the Narrator in "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat"...teaching at DPAC camp ( this year will be the 5th year..I can't believe it! ) A dream visit to NYC at Christmastime..Great shows with eLeMeNO-P and Broadway Rocks....Several trips to Kentucky... all is great!

I have only one kind of yuk thing right now...my dreaded KNEE. UGH!
In August, I hyperextended it. Doing something dumb, like walking. ( I am sure this surprises no one. ) And true to form, I ignored it..because I thought it would go away. After Joseph, I finally went to the doctor...and got this news.. I have a torn MCL, a stress fracture, and pretty severe arthritis and near bone on bone on my left knee. I have since then tried every remedy...KNOWN TO MAN.


Here is a partial list...
Traumeel ( a homeopathic anti inflammitory cream)
Glucosamine
Walking in the water against the current
low sugar diet
stretching
vitamin D
Neuro muscular laser therapy
NSAIDs ( celebrex and naproxen)
Icing
Elevation
Chiropractic


and...and....anything else??
Probably trying acupuncture next week..and i am open to suggestions! :)

I will try and update my blog on a regular basis..and post pictures too!
