Saw the surgeon

It will be another 5 weeks before I can begin strength training so still no carrying anything really heavy in that arm. I might be able to drive IF I can stand the pain (He's not hopeful of that). He is happy with how it looks but I do have a lot of work yet to do (I.e. 5 more weeks before I'm cleared to even try a 2 pound weight, 10 weeks total before I can do 2 pounds).

I asked about the burning pain and he agrees. It's the cut nerves coming to life. He said 'you don't look like you tan (ha!) but the scars need to stay out of sun. I like this guy. He calls me Doc.

Mom and I went to Tangier outlets and I got another pair of black clarks for work (none of the brown ones worked). I hope they do better than my last pair.

Went to the casino for dinner and play. We did the buffet.I feel like a Roman in need of the vomitorium (yes yes I know that's not what it really meant back then but let's pretend the myth is right).

I didn't win but a neighbor of ours won 100$ in freeplay. Nice.

What Jana’s been up to

Reading meme

What I just read No. 6#2 and Fairy Tail #24. Two fun manga. Fairy Tail is just for fun but No 6 is shaping up to a dystopia I actually like.

What I'm reading now I didn't get beyond that Richard Jury novel

What I plan to read Crimson Spell #3 and I might start an Erica Spindler novel.

Kind of a decent day, then? Nerves growing back? Wait, how did that happen?

Yay for casino and food.

nerves can reconnect. That's what we were hoping for in my hand and some did. These were little ones

SO much prime rib and bread pudding

Do you still have to wear the arm brace of ickiness?

Ouch for the nerve pain, but I know it's for the best in the long run.

Jealous, jealous, jealous about the prime rib and bread pudding.

And oooo, to the nerves reconnecting. That's a good thing. That's an amazing thing.
