This week has been some what tough. I have struggled with the pain and been grumpy and impatient. It feels like I take 2 steps forward and start getting into a routine and catching up on life and then wham bam something happens to stop it. I just want to do normal!

Despite all this pointless moaning I am getting better. My arm is less painful and I can move it more. I am now using 2 arms to do some things at least. By the evening it is quite painful again but it is improving. It has remained at just a little bit larger than normal which is fine. My hope had been to be able to get into my t-shirts and jumpers and mostly I can. It maybe that the physio can help me to get back to completely normal we shall see.

This week I have coffee with friends, some shopping, some stitches out, some cooking, some flower arranging, bible study and Chloe comes home for the weekend.

We have enjoyed lovely meals over the weekend thanks to my bible study ladies. Cooking with one arm is very tricky!

My youngest boy has kept me happy with his singing. He is good company and I love hearing him laugh.

I have discovered pinterest which is a site where you collect pictures on boards of all things you love. I love it - it satisfies my creative need when I only have 1 arm and can't create.
