Torn tendon in my arm... wanna get back to wrenching!
Man I really hate posting this. I've been sidelined for a few weeks now with a torn tendon in my arm/elbow. Classic "tennis elbow" as the doc says. It is amazing how painful and debilitating it is. I was trying to finish up a big project on the ol' honey-do list when I tore it (long story) and now I'm struggling to get that job done and heal so I can get back to wrenching on the car. I crossed 40 a couple of years ago and everything seems to be falling apart!
I know I'm not the first person to ever have this. When I was talking to the doc about what kinds of activities I do and said that I enjoy turning a wrench for fun he was not very encouraging. Said something to the effect of "just be glad your livelihood doesn't depend on it." I know somebody has some good advice so let's hear it!

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.
