Worn Out Gloves

The fingertips are usually the first to wear out on my work gloves, but I was perplexed why it was my ring finger this time.


Then I realized that I have been compensating for my shattering my index finger on my right hand since last summer.

My index finger and grip have come a long way, but still have a long way to go.  Which means the compensation will continue and I will likely wear out at least one more pair of gloves this way.

Pain is an incredible teacher about such things isn't it? Two years ago I broke my arm tripping over one of the dogs. I spent 9 weeks with my arm in a sling because I could neither straighten the arm fully or bend it more than that without being in excruciating pain. To this day, I start getting distracted, and I find myself carrying that arm tucked up against my side, as if its in a sling.
