Thought Points for This Day

Things I am thinking:




  • When things take two to three times longer to do, time passes quickly.


  • I do not think it is possible to put a pillowcase on a pillow with one arm.


  • The site coordinator where I pick up my food on Fridays sent me a get well card. How can someone with whom I chat 10 to 15 minutes once a week, pick out a card so perfect for me that you would have thought it came from my Mom, daughter, or best friend?


  • I was given 5 more exercises to do by the physical therapists and I like one of them so much I will probably do it for the rest of my life.


  • I can drive just fine with one arm.


  • Although My Sweetie can barely crack an egg or make a ponytail, he has been extraordinarily helpful.


  • I no longer sleep wearing my sling and I can't begin to say how much I enjoy sleeping without that strap on my neck.


  • I feel I am progressing very well and for that I am grateful.

I am so pleased for you.
I suppose it is good to see what our limitations really are when faced with the prospect of becoming a one armed bandit. Soon you can go back to drinking with both hands.

Glad you're on the mend. You can obviously type with just one hand too.
