A wonderful Easter to all who celebrate. I hope you're having a wonderful day.
I had such grand plans. I was feeling better. I was going to regularly post once a week, be on social media...all the things.
But the Spring weather has been swinging from 40 to 80 back to 40 and it hurts my everything.
I'm also at the stage of healing where I'm given Tylenol to solve all my problems.
But here's to a new week. Hopefully, it will be far more productive.
I love podcasts. I listen to them while I work, while I drive, and while I craft.
My favorite podcast genres are:
History
Investigative podcasts that are NOT about murder
D&D podcasts
Investigative podcasts that ARE about murder
My least favorite kind of podcast are ones where people just chat.
In Ill Advised Bill Nighy answers listeners' questions, posts a playlist and makes a book recommendation. It's not the usual kind of podcast I listen to at all, but I find it utterly charming.
Perhaps it is because I'm both clumsy and awkward. I struggle to even do social media very well.
I did find his advice on how to attend parties when you don't really want to go to be very insightful. So I'm very excited that Season 2 has started.
Give it a listen and maybe have a dance. In the comfort of your home.
It's been almost a full year since my last post. In that year, I've had two more surgeries with all the recovery and PT that goes along with them. I'm still in physical therapy. I've finally progressed from lifting a broomstick to actual weights. They're 3 pound weights but still...progress has been made.
In my last surgery, they cleaned scar tissue off my nerves, and now my left hand works a lot better. My fingers are still slow and heavy, but it no longer hurts to type. That numb, pins and needle feeling went from permanent to an intermittent "your hand is tired of working and needs a break." As I continue to heal, I look forward to being able to write much more often and with a lot less effort.
I may never be as fast as I was before my accident, but it finally feels joyful to write again.
