    How does your signature look?

    Stirring a cup of coffee/tea? Total guess on my part - you used to stir it anti-clockwise now its clockwise? *

    *( ... goes to show what an idle mind will think about, lol!)

    Hi Wol
    Don't really know you, but do know that you work hard to help others and always come up with invaluable advice, but came across this and am sorry that you are suffering.
    Good luck for the 25th and I can attest to the values of morphine, you could throw me through a wall and I wouldn't feel a thing :D
    I bet you're a fighter, but even fighters can feel defeated for a while.
    Am sending you a little tlc and hopes that you are being kind to yourself.

    Aww Wol, that sucks. I definitely feel your pain! I don't have a break but I've had a steroid injection in my hand and it's very stiff and one handed typing is a bore.

    Hope it isn't causing you too much hassle!

    Lilac - straightening hair one handed is a nightmare, hence I'm bringing back the frizz look today. Taps are the hardest and cleaning your teeth!

    Yep.you've got it LP..juggle, socks and bra....althought after the dramatic weight loss late
    last year, luckily I have nothing that needs supporting at the moment...went from 36 down to 32:eek: :rotfl:

    Thanx for posting...andhow are you Hun? Well I hope?

    As for hair...No need to straighten..its short and I just let it dry nacheral-like!! (cant blow dry properly even with two hands :o ).....so it will just have to frizz


    but...cant put shampoo on without using at least 3x more than normal..:mad: ...and there are mounds of toothpaste all over the sink :D

    More can' and cant's to follow....but after the watershed;)

    Hugs

    Hi Gemmzie.,..teeth..you're so right...see above! Flossing is now def out!!

    Thanks for posting. Hope you're doing OK Hun. I have to say the high dose, long term antibiotic regime they've put me on (never had this one before...Clindamycin...for animal bites!)....seems to have also dispensed with my other little problem....so every cloud/silver lining and all that..

    Big hugs to you

    just thought of a silly way around the chopping veggies thing , but might need a little bit of more thought (thinkings not my strong piont):o

    put a freezer bag over the plaster cast use some duct tape to tape a fork to it then stab your veggies to hold them stil and slice away , not much chance of cutting yourself either :confused:

    hope thats of some use :rolleyes: :A
