Vain?

I just want my old face back. I want the face that I left up Hobblecreek Canyon on May 30th. I promise I would appreciate it more. I would appreciate every wrinkle, blemish, blackhead, scar and dinky eyelashes. But Most of all I would appreciate my nose. I would appreciate how pointy it is at the end, I would appreciate how scratchy and irritated it gets, because of allergies, this time of year. I would appreciate my cheek bones not being the colors of the rainbow. I would appreciate not looking like a prize fighter (believe me you should see the other girl). I would appreciate not looking so tired and forelorn. I would appreciate being able to run and not be worried that my left knee is going to catch or blow up or something.

But with this sad event that has happened, some really awesome things have happened.
*My bestest friend, Shauna, calmed me and soothed me through every step of this calamity.
*I am one tough woman to keep running/walking/crying/bleeding down the rest of that trail to get myself back home.
*My Mommy Rocks! She just loves me and gives me sympathy.
*My family made me look at the funny side of all of this when I looked the worst (the 2nd day, pic #2)
*I actually didn't say really naughty words when Dr. Beus put hideous objects up my nose to fix it and put it back where it belonged.
*Baylie has listened to me complain, complain, complain and COMPLAIN and she just keeps telling me "It really isn't that bad Mom".
*Heavenly Father listens to me even when I can't fully kneel down because my left knee isn't working.
*Friends! Oh my friends! They are so amazing. They have given me herbal remedies, food, frozen peas, frozen cranberries, ice, nice cool rags, sympathy, sympathy, sympathy and more sympathy. I am truly, truly blessed for people who love me.
*This silly looking splint...it really makes me look wicked tough!
