Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

Routine doctor visit this morning. I have tendinitis in my right arm from the overwork end of last year. Picking up some meds after work, not supposed to use any garden tools or work in the house for 2 weeks.

tendinitis in my right arm from the overwork end of last year.

Not much they can give beyond pain & inflammation. Mine responded to OTC and some salve I made with plantain & comfrey. Sadly, it's subject to re-injury from our own same overuse, continual use. esp repetitive moves.

Yeah, we don't listen but, I hope you find a way to do better. Almost impossible to not use the arm. And it hurts when you do. I know, unfortunately. I did slow use a few days, then careful a few more....but, job & chores still need to happen. It's much, much better, not 100%. 3 wks out & prob needs another week or two.

Massage helps & hot water in shower.

Wow if I had to take 2 weeks off from chores the place would implode.

When I had knee replacement surgery I hired a friend to come take care of my animals for a month, just so I wouldn’t do something stupid. By the third week I was able to do some of the feeding, by fourth week I could take care of them in the mornings and feed dogs in the evenings. At end of the month, I was able to do it all by myself.

Too many opportunities to get hurt and screw up that surgery. I sure didn’t want to do that!

I'm wasting daylight!

Morning feed chores and off to work. TGIF

Next week I'll be home 5 of 7 days. Lots to do

...foolish things...
today i bought four stainless steel washers. they didn't cost much, but they are probably too small for what i needed them for, but dang it i'm gonna try anyways...

they did work, but i had to grind the centers out a bit to make them big enough. mission accomplished. cost fiddy one cents. also since i had the Dremel tool and grinding attachment out i could get the chips smoothed off the three glass bowls and small glass plate that have been sitting on my desk for a while. clearing up valuable horizontal organizing space for the next rounds...

My son and DIL started selling amway— so many people we know have been down this road,, so we will encourage them. That’s all I have to say about that,,,

lol, oh yeah... *wry grin*

time to go on vacation...

personally, deep tissue massage very carefully, small dose of ibuprofen at night before bed and light duty, but no heavy stuff for a while.
