injured

Today was a super busy day. After a day out and about, I got home just in time to walk in the door & do a quick change into my softball gear. If you've ever seen those fast-changing circus acts, I could compete with them.

I stripped & changed in my dining room. We arrived at the ball fields just in time for me to walk onto the field & swing a bat. Surprisingly, I didn't hurt myself by running to first base (I was out, by the way) but the first play of the game as infielder, I pulled/tore my quad.

As the game played on, it slowly got worse & now it sucks big time. I'm going to use the stick and then my husband is most likely going to force me to ice it. I'm the biggest wuss when it comes to icing. I'm a pretty tough chick as long as you don't make me ice any muscles.

So, that totally sucks... and as fun as the game was, I was very aware of the pain down the front of my left leg the whole time. Every play, I couldn't hustle the way I wanted...or if I did, then I regretted it once the play was over & I remembered I had pulled it.

We played a heck of a lot better tonight than we did last week. We're slowly feeling each other out & learning how each person plays. We'll be awesome by the end of the season...we might even win a game! :)
