I was our riding on a trail this evening and the sun blinded me. I hit a small rock and ended up in the ditch and broke my wrist. I'm in the ER right now awaiting a reduction. I am contemplating giving up riding outside, since this is the third injury in 3 years. I nigh be too fragile to continue!

Warm thoughts and prayers gratefully accepted .

Marlene, am so sorry to see this,I was inspired by your ride in the trees and mountains. Bless your heart, prayers for you. Ouch, a broken wrist, and your third injury. I hope that you are going to be okay, recover the wrist, and can find a way to keep riding, a shame you may have to stop riding outside. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers Marlene ((((hugs))))

It will be a while before I can even get on my trainer in the basement. The pain is really bad. and I won't know till Thursday what the prognosis is. I will probably will keep riding. I am more of a risk taker than I knew!

But I won't be outside on my bike till April, unless we move to warmer climes. I will post here when I am able to ride in the basement.

How goes your bike riding? My son, who was with me when I crashed told me I need to get 3 wheeler like you.

Kneedeep told me she also took a fall, but is more or less ok.

The food is "loud" as the GLP-1 users refer to it.Also pressured speech. Which comes out in my posts. Sorry I posted so much. I just need an outlet for my agitated and irritable brain. Just scroll on by my posts, if they are too...

    I haven't been around in a long time. I am admin in a private group, and I would like to upgrade someone else to that position. I thought I knew how to do that, but the prompt has gone missing. Or is it not allowed to upgrade someone else to admin? I just find "ban and demote" under "Edit." I don't get notifications to DS anymore, but I wil come back in a few days to find out the answer. There...
