Day 1 - No family for me...

Day 1 of my "21 days to make a habit" here's hoping...

So, I didn't go to my family reunion today because I woke up way to late. I'm still hoping to make it to the one in Des Moines next year though. That's family that I've never met before :)

On a weirder note, the last few days the fingertips on my right hand have been tingling. Like I fell asleep on my hand or something. There's no pressure that I can see on them so the only thing I can deduce is the pressure is coming from inside my hand. Leading me to believe that my CTS (Carpal Tunnel Syndrome) is acting up yet again.

Normally, I'll have some pain in my wrist that I can dull with an Ibuprophen or two until I wake up the following day feeling better than new. This time is different. I've never felt tingling before. So I did some research and the thing everyone keeps telling me is to continue with the 1 or 2 IB because it's an anti-inflamatory and to wear a wrist brace for about a month. That should immbolize the wrist enough for the swelling to go down. It shouldn't mess with it too bad in the sense that I won't be able to type but it will be awkward to work around. Let's just hope that works. The tingling doesn't hurt, it's just awfully annoying.

Anyway, I've started on a new book. Not sure if this will turn into a short story, a novella, or a novel. We'll see how it comes along. I'm debating posting things about the book on here just because I've always been told that it's best to keep things like that to yourself if you actually want to get published (meaning no one else can steal your ideas). But the way I see it is there is no such thing as original thought anymore. Anything you can think of has been thought of before. Anything written has been written before. The same goes for music and movies. It's all the same. We're just taking other people's ideas and twisting them to fit our own thoughts of how it should have ended. But, I digress...

To post or not to post...
