My recovery from this latest round of hand surgery is right on schedule. It is always slower than I want. I am doing the usual post surgery hand therapy several times a day. Now that the stitches have healed, I am also working on minimizing the scar tissue.
I am at the stage where I have big plans for the day. These plans go as scheduled until my hand gets tired, sore or both. That usually means stopping progress dead in its tracks for a rest until my hand feels better. John and I used team work to make an awesome turkey chili for dinner. I love how the onion is cut in perfect squares. He is also on opening cans and bottles right now. The best part is we only made 1/2 a pot so it’s a 2 night meal.
I also managed to wash and fold almost 2 loads of laundry and get it put away. I say almost because I ran out of bend in my hand to finish folding the socks. I put off load 3 until tomorrow.
Tomorrow I plan on warping the loom before every chore but starting laundry. If I wait until I finish my chores, my hand is too tired for precision work. That way if my hand is too tired to spin, I can always weave while watching television.
