good news

my hand feels better!

thanks to my dad who recommended taking vitamin B, and thanks to my wonderful Sean who got me a yoga pass, and gave me a Priesthood blessing, I can actually live my life normally now! What a blessing it is to be able to have full use of my hand again. I never realized that tendinitis would affect me so much, but I felt SO disabled. ugh. You really truly never know what you've got till it's gone. Having experiences like that every once in a while really makes me grateful for every day of health that I am given.

Is there a band-aid for that?

Well, I haven't been posting pictures and writing about what we've been up to because my hand/wrist gets really bad tendinitis if I use my computer for very long. I'm just too right-handed and my tendons are upset with me.

This week in Salzburg has been really wonderful. Today we went to the house where Mozart grew up, ate lunch at the open air market, went to a jazz concert in a cave-like cafe which was dug into the side of a mountain, and then to a "light show" at the Salzburg Cathedral. We've been having a lot of fun and the boys have been so cute and good lately. Peter seems like he is getting over his "terrible two tantrums" so that's been nice (knock on wood.)

We've been missing good ol' Provo a lot lately and we feel tired of traveling. But we only have two more weeks left! Kind of crazy to be in the heart of Europe and to not be totally excited about it. But after a month and a half of all sleeping in one hotel room and walking around big cities with two babies in search of a meal, we're just tired! I dream of the day a couple weeks from now when the kids will be in a separate room and I can get a full night's sleep. So, yeah... now I've typed too much and my hand hurts :(

I'll post some pictures up tomorrow if my wrist is feeling better!
