Broken Tailbone

Since Mt. St. Helens started acting up I've been very busy, I apologize for not writing sooner. I am about 70 miles south/southwest of the volcano, but no matter what she does, the greatest danger to me is ash. I had asthma as a child, and my lungs are still sensitive. Anyway, on to new news. My blood sugar has been behaving for the most part, until I fell last week and broke my tailbone. I slipped on the bathroom floor getting out of the shower. I did have a towel down so I wouldn't slip on the floor if it was wet, the problem was that I slipped on the towel. It has been pretty painful, especially trying to sit down and get up. Even bowel movements are painful. I've had a Fibromyalgia flare since then because of the fall. I am trying to ramp up in my knitting efforts to find the perfect hat for my brother that he wants me to knit him for Christmas. Sorry this is a quick update, but sitting for periods of time hurts quite a bit. I was answering email from my bed on my stomach, but I can't do that for long either.
