Celebrating
Celebrating being back among the living after getting a cortisone shot in my shoulder so that I can now move my arm again! Yey! Survived work yesterday even though I was fairly useless there between being unable to use my right arm, and having stabbed myself in the eye with my mascara wand... because I'm right handed. I knew the day wasn't going to go well. Miraculously I didn't have to cut myself out of the blouse I was wearing when I got home from work (I was pretty sure I was going to have to ... either that or wear it until my shoulder got better...) and there was nothing I could do, so I went to sleep ...for the next 14 hours, with my shoulder surrounded by ziploc bags of ice... which melted ... and leaked... so that I got to wake up in a cold puddle... the start of another great day. But it got better... even though I couldn't get an appointment at the orthopedist, they have a walk in clinic... where I got a cortisone shot and now I am able to function again ... almost like a normal person (but when was I ever a normal person anyway?!) So, I'm not supposed to lift or push anything over 5 lbs for the next week. My camera is less that 5 lbs... so I'm good. (the ammo at my job is way more than 5 lbs....but it's not going to be my problem for the next week. Oh well...)
This is a shot that I have taken before, but going back and looking at it now, I felt the need to reshoot it! I think it's better now! (although I'm not sure about the flowers.... what do you think... better without the flowers?)
