Daily Update (LG Nest) Sunday, April 11, 2010

Very bright light is on tonight.  :-)

Hi Annette,

I know the end of this week we will all be on " first egg watch"  But I hope EJ doesn't  lay her first egg on Friday, because I  will be gone all day. I am having shoulder surgery for a torn rotator cuff and  bone spurs.

I want to see  her  first egg.  After the surgery I will have  plenty of time on my computer to keep everyone updated because  I have to sit in a special   chair with my arm in a passive motion machine for 3-4 hours a day.  When they  deliver the chair   I plan to  tell them  to put it  in front  of my computer :) 

Hey Barbara Jean: I was out to dinner with friends last night and someone was talking about "passive motion" machines for knee surgery!  My daughter had rotator cuff surgery a few years ago - she was the "active machine" that exercised it - it turned out fine. Will you still be able to type on the blog?  :-) 

Huh. The bright light on the nest just went out; now normal, low, night lighting....

This machine exercises the arm with out my help.  It is my left shoulder and I use my right hand to write and  for the computer mouse. I am sort of ambidextrous . I can write  with either hand,  but   use my right hand the most  so that  handwriting is  better. However my left arm  has always been my strongest  so I  carry heavy things with that arm and thus the torn rotator cuff.  They say  which ever hand you can  use a scissors with is  your dominate hand. Well  I can  and do use a scissors with either  hand. My Dad was ambidextrous too. Comes in handy at a time like this :) 

If EJ is on schedule she should be on the nest in about 10 minutes with Odin  in 'HOT' pursuit LOL

Handy indeed!    I see dawn breaking over the nest....

Here she is right on time :)

Hmm. EJ and Odin arrive simultaneously; no need to explain what they're up to; Odin leaves immediately.  Off to get breakfast, one hopes.

I can just hear it as they wake up and one says to the other "Race ya to the nest"!!
