RESOLUTE

             





February 27: Rain…pouring rain all day.  Over four inches of rain thundering down our roofs as if a team of horses were prancing on the wood.  Simply wonderful stuff.

February 28:  Little need for painkillers if I behave.  Finding a way to read comfortably is the trick.  Book on pillow on tray sounds good but is a slippery scenario.

March 1:  Very frustrated that I can do so little.  Acceptance is hard when even small chores seem beyond me.  Laundry becomes a mountain yet he insists he can do it.  Most books on hand don’t catch my imagination for one reason or another either.  The books I ordered ages ago from ABE Books haven’t arrived.  Probably the back east weather has slowed them down.

March 2:  A wonderful day…and so I overdid here at the computer.

March 3:  Wonderful warm sunshine all day.  My arm stayed raised, resolutely quiet in its black sling all day.  Reading: If the tray you are using tilts, the pillow stays put better as does the book.  One book a keeper.  He did the laundry.


March 4:  Keeping my arm in the sling except for capitols and colons.

  2. Getting to cut down on the pain killers is a great thing. Hope you continue to progress.

    1. George: Amen! Robert's finding that the night-time pain pill keeps his system bogged down so I suggested a 'softener' pill to take along with the rx. pain killer. Or, switch to Tylenol and see how that does. He gets through the day o.k., but the night is hard.
