Update On Injuries…
Almost Five Weeks Since Surgery… Thanks, everyone, for all the great well-wishes. Very much appreciated. So here is an update… Things are improving for me and my new titanium shoulder. But still issues. Still sleeping sitting up which does not allow good rest. Still typing with one hand which causes me to get behind at times on things. With luck that will change in the next week or so and my letters won’t be so short. PT folks are nice, but wow is that painful, which drains me especially with the lack of good sleep. I am out of the brace and now trying to train my arm to hang…

5 am…
I’m Up Still Doing Assignments… Typing (if you call it that) with one hand still. Very slow. But the fine folks at PT want me to slowly live a little more each day without the brace. Yay… Progress. And I am back driving. Huge progress… I hope to bring the writing back up as soon as I can type with both hands. Soon. Blogs will get longer when that happens. (grin) And assignments won’t take me until 5 am.

Typing With One Hand Sucks…
Another Week or So With The Brace… Sorry some emails back have been short. Two quick updates… January in-person reading list will go out soon to everyone plus Study Along. Still time to sign up. Write me. 15 spots left in the July Anthology Workshop. Again, write me if interested. PT went well. Exhausted as expected. More tomorrow.

First Full Day…
Beat Way To Describe It… Ouch! Not taking any opioids, so pain managed by regular stuff, and managed is a little euphemistic to say the least. I am in a big brace that Ron Collins came up, and helped me and Kris figure out how to get me in an out of the brace and a garbage bag over my huge bandage so I could shower. THANK YOU RON!!!!! Excited about how well the new special stretch reward on the Kickstarter is doing. We’re trying to get to 160 backers by Sunday evening. Take a look and please pass the word. Really appreciate that. Thank you, everyone, for all the…

Made it Home…
Long Day… Hunting and pecking to make sure I get my blog done. Kris will update you on her Facebook page. Wearing a massive brace on my right arm so going to take some time to set the keyboards so I can use both hands with the brace. My first surgery in 72 years and first broken bone(s) in 72 years. Nurses and doctors were always shocked when they first looked at my age and asked how I fell and I said running a 5K. Seemed all went well. Kris knows more about that. I am home and alive. I want to thank Chris and Steve York for putting up…
