Appreciation

You never really appreciate how important certain body parts are until they stage a revolt. In my case it is my right shoulder/arm. I knew I would be in bad shape if something ever happened to my hand(s). I never anticipated the trauma of a bum wing. The simple things; brushing my teeth/hair, opening a bottle, lifting even the lightest things, writing...... Wish I'd have worked a little on being ambidextrous.

The physical therapist told me to do nothing this weekend. Surely, I decided, she didn't mean nothing nothing. She meant, of course, nothing strenuous (right?) No, and I knew it because she specified - but I am stubborn and needed to clean my house...how bad could that be? Well, pretty hard actually. Vacuuming, for instance, with a bum shoulder is torture...and my left arm is totally uncoordinated.

So I stopped and my house is still a mess

Think I will head over to SG's house for some basketball and gettin' spoiled....

I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous.

Ok, ok. Sorry about that. Hope you feel better soon.
