The pain, the pain
I think I'll be so beat down by the time I see the orthopedic doctor on Monday that I'll be begging her to do surgery right then in the office. My left shoulder is killing me. I can't even pick up a jar of peanut butter with that hand. I made the mistake of vacuuming the kitchen floor and then mopping it yesterday. Ouch. Anyway, I have a lot of sympathy for people with chronic pain.
In the meantime, I have so much to fix in my novel that I'm overwhelmed. I'll just take little bites and get it done over the next couple of months, but I wanted to be done by the end of this month. Not happening. Hopefully, I can send it to a couple of people to read in June or July.
Wow, yesterday we had no internet for four hours. It was a nightmare of no TV and no streaming and no Zoom writing class. Three out of four participants would have had to use their phones, including the teacher because it was a county-wide outage. So, not worth it.
My little dog is getting older. She turns nine this year. We don't really know when, but since I got her in May, I always say her birthday is May 9. The only difference I see in her is that if she does go for long walk, she goes to bed early. I can relate. I was almost fast asleep at 8;15 last night. I rallied until 10 just so I wouldn't wake up at 2, but I still woke up at 3 for a little while. Morning Joe is on at 3:00 am in California and more than once I've been tempted to watch. How much news can I take in one day, though, since I watch Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell at night. Everything is so much better since you-know-who is relatively quiet.
