Received a Great Surprise This Afternoon

December 22nd, 2006

When I finally got out of bed this morning at ten thirty, Scott was already up and on his computer playing that game that he has been playing since he got here on Wednesday night. My shoulder and arm were hurting and I was just not in the mood to cook so we decided to [...]

Finally Some Results From Physical Therapy

December 21st, 2006

Had my second appointment with the orthopedic doctor this afternoon. He had me touch my nose with my injured arm and then put my hand on the back of my neck. The one touching my neck hurt a little but not too bad. Seemed very simple to me but then he said he was very [...]

More Exercises Mean More Flexibility

December 8th, 2006

More physical therapy today and when I left Green Clinic I was bushed. The therapist took me through four new exercises today in addition to the one with the rod and they all hurt. Not a hurt that I could not stand but I could definitely feel the muscles pulling which was rather uncomfortable. But [...]

Third Therapy Session Today

December 6th, 2006

MY Completed CQ Block From the RR in CQForNewbies Group

December 2nd, 2006

When I got my block out of the mailbox I was in my car on the way to the library.  Of course I had to open it right then and the first words out of my mouth were, "Oh, it is BEAUTIFUL."  All five of the ladies in the group with me did a great [...]

Final CQ Block For RR Finished

December 2nd, 2006

I was finally able to finish the last block of the CQ RR in which I was involved.  I had two leaves to add to the small white flower and the leaves on my signature heart flower and was planning to finish the morning of November first.  Wow, that plan certainly got changed with a [...]

Physical Therapy, Ouch

December 1st, 2006

Today I had my first physical therapy session. The head of the therapy department saw me first and had me do several different movements which he measured with a funny little ruler. After each movement he made notes on a sheet of paper and then he took me to what they call the “gym” and [...]
