Happy Friday Lizards!

I am on the mend after a nasty fall on Tuesday night. Nothing broken, but definitely pulled muscles and a tendon. Just when I was prepping to begin drawing, sewing and making stuff again after a long pause. I was almost feeling good enough after over a year in pain to go out and begin yard and gardening stuff (with a little assist here and there), but not now. My right shoulder on the back side and my rib cage on that side are sore as hell. No bruising, I think wearing my heavy winter jacket saved me from worse injury. But damn it hurts a lot sometimes. I have edibles, and ibuprofen, and a heating pad and ice packs, which are helpful. I was actually able to drive to pick up a grocery store order today so that is progress, but it’s going to take a bit to get back to where I’m not in serious pain a few times a day.

I hope you all are well and figuring out how to stay safe and sane in all the madness. It’s really isn’t easy so I think it’s ok to give yourself a little hug for making it through another week, and a treat this weekend if you can. I keep missing so much happening here because real life calls, but I do think about all of you here daily, I miss this place. I read threads when I can but replying and hanging out is hard. So, big hugs all around and I hope I keep reading about more and more of us getting vaccinated and putting life back on the mend.
