Oh Liz... I can relate to this post SO MUCH. I'm also on the heavy lifting journey. I started during Covid and wrote this post about dumbbells that reminds me of your thought process. Writers can't help but find poetry in dumbbells :) (https://www.ashleyfenker.com/blog/2021/02/24/black-market-dumbbells) Poor sweet girl and her broken leg!!! I can't even imagine. You are SO STRONG and doing an amazing job to love her and yourself through the pain!
