I did tell them that both of them were having normal feelings, and that seem to help make the once feeling sad feel a bit better -- it's always comforting to have your feelings validated.
I am finally almost myself after my broken arm. Healing is rough. I broke my foot in two places (metatarsal) almost 6 years ago, and the healing was no big deal. Not that much pain, and I had two little kids, aged 1 and 3, and yet it was a walk (limp) in the park compared to this elbow thing. At any rate, after a LONG plateau of only 95 - 100 degrees of bend, I now have 150-160 degrees, and I am no longer in much pain. I am using it as much as I can, and it is so much better. I feel normal, although I do ache like crazy today from all the effort and craziness of yesterday and all the stuff I was carrying around.
Today is (another) rainy day. A good day to knit. A good day to knit my friend Rosemary's Verdigris mitts in a bright orange color with my friend Jun's (tricoquelicot) hand-dyed yarn.
