Greater tuberosity and other fun things.

Greater Tuberosity.

Doesn’t that sound like it should be a name of a roller coaster at a super fun amusement park?  “Step right up people and have a ride on the death defying GREATER TUBEROSITY!  A feat of engineering, a marvel of adventure!” 

The reality is that “greater tuberosity” is just a fancy name for shoulder.  Which I fractured last week.  Oops.

Considering I’m scheduled for knee surgery next week, my timing is spectacular and this has put a damper on the ski season.  Just when I’d managed to rekindle my love/hate relationship with skate skiing…  Plus, I get total FOMO when it comes to skiing with my kids – I don’t want to miss a thing.  It drives me bonkers when they go without me.

I’m front loading the surgery with as much running as I can as I am not sure when I’ll be able to get out there again (super graceful, one-armed running).  I devastated that I can’t swim (total lie).  Garage biking is happening. I tried snowshoeing but almost died of boredom: I would have been a terrible coureur des bois.

Coming soon: road trip recap!  In the meantime, enjoy some random photos.

               This is the aforementioned roller coaster.
shoeing
Snowshoeing. This is about 7 minutes after I started. Notice the boredom yet?

                        Did you know that fractured shoulder = no shoveling. Perk.

“Someone” may have told him that spies dress up so that they can fly business class.

  1. So sorry about your poor shoulder. Was it icy? Still it’s a heck of a way to get out of shoveling. I’m also worried Jay may do in his knee skiing with Anja on his shoulders. No mean feat! You guys take care.
