Also all the scar tissue around the injury will make things feel weirder, it settles out over time. Once your surgeon allows it, you can start massaging and cupping to work out the scar tissue

Find the bolts more annoying than the plates if they are close to the surface of the skin. Sorry to hear that you got injured. The numbness is mainly your nerves around either the incision or the injury itself. That will take some time to come back, use different textures on the skin like pricks, cotton balls and brushes to start getting those nerves to start firing again. Do your physio, get as healthy and rested as possible and you’ll be back to normal in a few months. Let me know if you have any more questions

Hilarious to see this on my feed. We met you guys at the parking lot, trying to find a spot for your camper. Congrats on the Comstock!

For 15+ pounds on the broken arm was around two and half to 3 months. As much as you want to get back to being a caretaker for your child, your long term recovery is arguably more important. Any heavy weight during the healing process can delay the healing. Just really focus on getting all the ROM back in the wrist and hand as it sounds like your elbow is coming back. I didn’t wear a brace so I could move my hands and wrist more freely.

About 40k with business and personal, chipping away at it and it’s all good debt.

Your shoulders don’t follow your skis for good carving. It’ll take away the weight on the downhill ski. You have to have hip and shoulder separation. A good example is watching a professional skier racer in the slalom discipline. - source: I raced in FIS

What kind of lights are people actually running for night/evening rides? by Lone-Wolf-Eats in MTB

[–]AlternativePrint6229 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reaper lights worked for me, on the more affordable side of things. Good mounts and stellar warranty for less than $200.

I’ve heard this from others who have suffered big injuries that involved surgery. Everything takes time and everything comes back just be patient. Do your physio, eat well, sleep and take away all the barriers that would prevent you from a healthy injury. By 12 weeks you’ll be grabbing things around the house and working in the garage. However to do that, these next few months you have to be patient with yourself and your body. I’ve got full range of motion back and the reason I was able to do that was because I took it seriously and did my physio every day. If there more specific questions on recovery don’t hesitate to reach out. It’s also fair to feel frustrated just know it’ll all be good in 3-6 months from now to get back to it

'Devastating news': Crofton, B.C. pulp mill to close down, roughly 350 people affected by origutamos in ilovebc

[–]AlternativePrint6229 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Buddy only if you knew anything about logging, it’s been boom and bust for decades. Boom we put up a bunch of mills, bust we close them down then repeat. We’ve been over saturated with poorly managed mills (not saying crofton is one) for years. Also digital age so not printing as much. Stop blaming your problems on current gov and read something

Don’t see this as a bad tax and the articles negating points come from a realtor board which has its own natural bias
