Moving again

It seems pretty fitting that my first blog post be a week and a half away from another move... Back to my folks house!

Now, this isn't permanent or for any reason other than I'm scheduled to have surgery next week to remove a neuroma from my foot.  For two weeks after that I need to stay off my feet as much as possible.  And let's be honest, where better to recover than with Mom and Dad?  The complicated part is that two weeks ago my Dad had a little accident on his motorbike and broke his ankle bone.  So my poor mother is going to have two semi-invalids hopping around her house on crutches for a while!  Let's hope she retains what sanity she has left after raising me and my two older brothers.

I have been in hospital more times and had more operations than both my brothers combined, so I think we know who the accident prone child was!  I always believed my brothers when they told me I could do something and that I'd be fine, and to be honest, I probably would still believe them.  Things didn't always work out as planned and I'd end up with a broken arm or broken teeth, but they were there, so really I was fine.  

To prove my point, here's a photo of them trying to put me in a pair of (police issue) handcuffs!!

So, this adventure is not a terribly exciting one and will be rather painful, but once it's done and healed I can start running again and get out on the road.  Man, I miss it!!  And then more adventures can begin...
