Did a bit more today, and I'm trying a list of the other things I have to do . That might just be something to beat myself up with though.

Natty - recognising what is going on is a huge step. You know what is happening and you know that you've recovered before.

Don't compare what you could do a while ago with what you can do now. It's like saying "Before I broke my arm I could do this, so I should be able to do it now with my arm in plaster" Just focus on doing the things that make you better.

Managed to hoover the entire house.

Mopping brigade - who has had their mop out since Monday? Going to do mine in a minute!

Ionafan, lovely daffs, I love the smell of daffs and they remind me of when AnW'sMum was on the flylady thread

Going to do HH on here now checking bank accounts, deleting emails (might even reply to the odd one!) etc.

Oh wow I love those boots! Web page saved to favourites for looking at later

Wendy (and anyone else of course) if you do order boots from P£nnangalan, do make sure to order a larger size than you usually take. They do mention it on the site, and I can confirm, their boots are on the small side, so ask for a size larger than your usual size.;) That said, my boots are synthetic leather (it's an option, so I went for it) and I find them actually very comfortable - as far as footwear is ever comfortable on me.:o

Could I possibly request a few Flylady vibes for tomorrow at 11.20? If you could send my doctor accurate aim so he can sort my shoulder out, :eek: that would be great. Won't go into details so as not to wobble people

Then, if the gods are with me, I'll be able to change a duvet cover without swearing:rotfl:

Aww, short bird I've only just seen this; I hope all went well for you.:o

I actually did today's Flying list yesterday (spare room on Fridays here); even managed to empty the shredder, which lives in there!:o So I'm frog-hunting today; see if I can get a few of the little blighters chomped.:D

Thanks, LW. Treatment for frozen shoulder, dagnabbit. A brief panic when GP couldn't find letter from physio but hit had been scanned and put in the wrong folder. Phew.

Yes, all's gone well; so far, haven't had to break out either painkillers or bag of frozen peas. Then again, it has only been an hour:D

So, a little light movement today, things that don't involve moving my arms too high :rotfl:
