inch by inch

life's a cinch, or so they say. still working primarily one-handed, but have tapered off most of the pain/muscle spasm meds. they wreak absolute havoc with my digestive system, it's a toss up which is worse. best sleep in nearly 2 weeks last night. cannot yet sew or consider work, but that day should come eventually. heating pad is still my BFF, that and hot showers. reading all the quilty blogs drooling, wishing i could also sew. i did iron some strips today, right-handed, but rotary cutter and hand sewing out of the question for now. i also finally finished last sunday's paper just in time for another, but it made my arm ache holding up both sides of the newsprint. in spite of continued limitations, it is better than last week; will be overjoyed once pain free altogether.
