Moving around while in pain.

This morning (20/05/2019) I woke up in crippling pain. Just standing on my two feet hurt enough for me to fall over. The pain is more in my spine, but for some reason goes all the way down into my legs and heels. I have been grabbing onto furniture in order to move around the…

Drained.

  So, I have been drained lately. If you read my previous post (Bursting Sponge) you would know. I don’t know why that is. It could easily be the pain taking a toll of my body. Or finals approaching. Schedule changes. Even a mixture of all the above. There is one thing that has caught…

End of Season

It has been over a full week since I ended my 2018-2019 Figure Skating year. This was also my 20th season on the ice. As you all remember last season was a disappointment after coming off from a season high the year before. Well, this season didn’t start off so good. And to be honest…

Blindsided by a Nagging Injury

Why yes, it has been forever since I have updated. Basically since the site showed my last school assignment.
