    I'm not sure I'd say good, but I guess it's better. I went in to the doc's about a week ago because my hand was hurting and I thought I had too much movement in my fingers. The nurse thought they'd give me another cast with more coverage, but no. I could barely move my thumb and index finger because the scar tissue had locked everything down. They put on a splint and I start physical therapy tomorrow.

    I've been trying to use it more, and I do, but it's very painful. I've been working on some cross stitch and might move to crochet as a form of productive physical therapy. I've also been playing Guitar Hero with my son while he's here visiting. I still can't tie my shoes or do anything that requires any twisting of my wrist. Right now I feel like I'll never be able to squeeze a clutch again, but I'm sure that's not true.

    I had no idea it was going to be this painful or last so long. Oh, and the lawyers are beating down my door now. Surgery has added a whole new dimension to the case.

    Thanks for thinking of me.
