I left your name off in my yell.... but you know the brain is not what it use to be.... sorry my fingers were to blame....

You must have been reading my MIND....

No keeping score... with my hands so bad I would loose in arm wresteling... so I would cheat... make you laugh and then I win... LOL...

kath

Kath, Maybe I should arm wrestle. Better chance of winning than if we did cartwheels. LOL LOL

No cheating, we got this far - can't stoop to cheating at this point. You know better. LOL
Sharon

Sharon.......what kind of bone stimulator are you talking about in your earlier post? Is ie estim or what? Just wondering for possible future use for my son.

Hello!
I'm here...and very excited about going to the BIP picnic in Pennsylvania tomorrow morning!!
I'll be meeting Kathleen and Nancy...as well as Francine and the other mom's and kids...
Oh, I've waited 52 3/12 years for this!!
Feeling excited and a little...anxious!
Opps! I'm forgetting my re-introduction. I'm left OBPI.
Also been so busy working full time and getting my son's, who are 19 & 22,lives in order that I don't get on the board as much as I'd like.
I found this message board last summer, have made lots of great friends and aquaintances, WILL SEE SOME IN THE "FLESH" TOMORROW!

Tina, I'm glad you're back. John, nice to meet you.
Sharon...hello!

Welcome back Tina. i am answering the call to come back and play. Just started back to work subbing. I am not use to standing so long. O.k. to re-introduce myself I am 41 robpi and live in Florida. A big hello to all the newcomers to the board. I guess I am no longer MIA. hey guys I ran into willy's cousin while mowing yesterday.Gave it the name peewee. Thats is what i did when i saw him. And yes the gator is still across the street.

I guess I've been gone so long no one remembered that I'm MIA too. Actually I find myself lurking more and more and posting less, maybe I should stop that. Lets see where do I start or about a year and a half ago (age 19) I started having a lot of pain due to a damaged rotator cuff (OBPI bonus!) and looked around to find the boards and I've been trapped here ever since!! I'm 21 and 5/12 now, so long as we're going with fractions, a Fine Arts NonToxic Printmaking major at RIT and I just got up and need to shower and head on off to the studio. Nice to see you back around Tina, we missed you too. Even us lurkers.

Thanks Lurkers and MIA's...

Glad to see I am not alone... Carrie... sorry I missed you... did not forget about you was not sure thought you were to busy to check here...

So where is Michelle and Ann and Carolyn and Katrina...

Thank goodness for John he is a stand up guy... Steve L.... and Michael... do you need a special invitation???? LOL...

Judy now you have two snakes... for those who don't know Judy has had Willy the snake in her yard and she cuts the grass... now she has two snakes!!! I on only have foxes in my yard... too bad were not neighbors...LOL... by the way what is the alligators name?

I met Stephanie, Francine and Nancy yesterday in Pennsylvania...I also met so many of the moms and cute adorable children...
OK do you think being OBPI makes us more adorable?????????? it was so nice...
of course I am still the odd ball because Nancy & Steff are both left obpi and I am right...
It was amazing to see how many compensations we have and we all clapp alike except.....
Nancy and Stephanie do it backwards... LOL...
Instead of hiding in the photo's we posed with our arm showing... I did win the contest for the longest arm... and that's not saying much because I have short arms to begin with... LOL...
It was a great day...
Support and meeting others with the same injury has been so healing for all of us... It truly is empowering...

Kath

It truly was the highlight of my day at the OBPI picnic when it was time to clap hands. I was sitting next to Nancy Birk and Kathleen was on the end...I looked over and saw two other people who couldn't clap "properly" either and just cracked up.
Then Nancy and I put up our "good" right hands and slapped them together a few time for a proper hand clapping. LOL!

Now there was a missed photo opportunity!

-Stephanie

I am busy, but I'm busy with a tech school's ethernet connect! It's so sweet. Ok, I was going to post something but I decided to start a new thread, so go read it!!
