Keep on Moving

On Tuesday, I had an orthoscope on both shoulders, on Weds. we were in ER with my daughter Sherry (d-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria w/mixed disabilities), today I am working on getting those arms and shoulders going, but sometimes I wonder if it is beginning to be as much lack of initiative as it is pain or inability at times.

I played piano, sometimes my fingers don't remember the keys, even to that I've written. Sometimes I am opening the door to my cabinet and finding four new cans of Crisco! Or 6 boxes of Bisquick, or throwing out even cans of things in the pantry if it has been out of sight (out of mind).

I don't forget the important things, like that which I am working on with my daughter, nor my son. Or husband. But, sometimes I forget the short term things. (and I promise a teen will try to take advantage by saying "you just don't remember you said I could..." Even when I know exactly that I did not.

Words come out scrambled sometimes but I am aware of that just as well as I am aware of the word I was going to say!

Thank you CTD for that.

I am frustrated still in seeing a rheumatologist when I get a reminder call that I am due to visit the one here.
I don't know that I am going to keep that appointment. I am going for a second opinion out of town in Dallas which is a little over an hour for me.

Hey, WN being in Spring must know that in Texas we measure distance by hours.

I'll see the colo-rectal surgeon on the 11th to see what inflammation has wrecked habit on this time. Bu;t, for now, I am going to get myself up and take that pork roast out of the oven and check my potatoes.

It is late, having to go pick up lab work on my daughter, and I know that the guys are hungry..I already made sure my girl was fed.

Hope that all has been well. I'm working on it. Right now I am more in a mental/emotional slump than physical.
