The state of the Liz

[labelleizzy]

Physical therapy appointment today for my hand. It's been a bit clawlike since I got the cast off two weeks ago. No grip strength, well, grip strength coming back slowly.

Orthopedic doc and x-rays yesterday, stuff looked good, I got the referral for today's appointment.

The PT was tall and skinny-strong, and we had a good talk about how to take proper care of my hand. I've got a series of stretches and strengthening exercises to do, and flexibility work. I'm sore in different ways now than I was this morning, and hope for some great progress pretty fast. I've already got a noticeable difference after icing my hand three times and running several sets of these exercises.

Oh, and the annual pagan convention is tomorrow and over the weekend, so there's some fun stuff to look forward to!

Oh, hey! I won't actually BE at the con, but I'll be on-site Saturday for Cynan's wake. Depending on how long that runs and how peopled-out it leaves me, maybe we could do $BEVERAGE or $MEAL after?

Yeah, it would be cool to see u f2f after so many years of just chatting here/online.
I'm just putting Liz on my badge, hopefully it will be easier that way.

I was in too much pain Saturday. I stayed home, sorry. =(

I'm so sorry to hear that! :-( The wake was lovely (for all that singing March of Cambreadth at a memorial was a bit incongruous); I had dinner with friends at Sprigs afterward; and then I spent a couple of hours hanging out in Ops with other friends.

There will be other opportunities, I am sure.
