Yesterday's sunset:

Today's sunset:

The weather was kind of nice here today. It was just like summer, with no fog and not too hot in the afternoon like summer is. I hear it kinda sucks in most other places right now though. Sorry about that anyone anywhere else that has sucky weather right now. It will get better, and it will get worse.

After seeing the doctor yesterday, it was decided that I'm supposed to continue therapy and slowly increase my workload until my stamina is the same as it was preaccident. Then they'll decrease the therapy and see if i can handle it. They still want to wait on the hand and arm numbnes issues I have until my shoulder gets better. Right now they cannot tell what's hand and what's shoulder/nerve related, so we'll dael with that hen we know more. I wish I could just tear into something full force right now , but I'll have to go slow and easy for a while, take real frequent breaks, and continually change my body/posture positions. No longer than 30 minutes of work without a break... A bunch of stretching routines...

At least I can be somewhat productive again. And that's good news to me.

After leaving the doctor's yesterday, I came home and cleaned up the factory. It had three months of accumulated neglect out there to take care of. By the end of the day, I had the thatch back up and everything in order, cleaner than it's been in about 9 months or so.
Here it is, all ready for action:

First order of business is to finish the Moai that I forgot about and stumbled across in my garage last week:

I just have to sand him. I did a little of that today.Not much because yesterday's cleaning and moving stuff kicked my wrist's ass.

I also did a short tutorial for Tikiville over on his thread on how I do the designs on the bell of the drum. that was the first time I held or used a mallet in forever. Thankfully, my arm didn't fall off in the process!

I got about 1000000 posts to answer still and i'm too tired to do it right now...

I'll be back.
Buzzy Out!
