NICE TO HEAR SEE RED WING BLACKBIRDS BACK
I didn’t stray too far from inside our house today. As it turns out I couldn't have done much outside anyway. About 5 days ago while in the driveway wrestling with our heavy utility trailer in our pea stone driveway I pulled the muscles in my left arm. However being a typical male instead of resting that sore arm I continued doing yard work, lifting heavy rocks and stuff plus hooked and unhooked the utility trailer two more times. This morning when I woke up I could not straighten my arm out without a lot of pain so that was the end of my plans to wash the Motorhome. Moved it back into it's spot and came in the house where I remained for the rest of the day plunked in my recliner in front of the TV. Came to the conclusion the only thing worse than nighttime TV is…….daytime TV!!
At the time of publishing tonight I still can't straighten my left arm all the way out. Discouraging because I know how long it takes for muscles to heal now at this age. And right in the middle of my Spring clean-up too. Oh ya then there’s that little hospital thingy in the morning. Gadzooks what a bummer:((
GROANER’S CORNER:(( Some years ago, Michael J. Flanagan, a successful New York contractor, was standing on the deck of the Staten Island Ferry when a car got loose and sent him into the river where he drowned. The following Sunday his widow, all decked out in deepest black, was standing on the church steps after Mass, receiving condolences and enjoying every minute of it, when an old friend of the contractor came up. "I'm sorry, Mary, for your trouble," offered the friend. "Did Mike leave you well fixed?" "Oh, he did!" she said. "He left me almost a half million dollars." "Well now, that's not bad for a man who couldn't read or write." "Nor swim either," added the widow.

Ouch, that is not fun, hope it gets better soon for you and that hospital things in the morning too boot.
ReplyDeleteGet the arm all better soon and you be good as new. Day time Tv really sucks. I would much rather read a book.
Take care! Sure hope the arm is better real soon:)
ReplyDeleteThat Spring clean up will be waiting for you when your arm feels better :-)))
ReplyDeleteOh dear, sorry about your arm. Are you actually admitting that men are stubborn? Hmmmm. :) Hope it is soon on the mend.
ReplyDeletePulled muscles at this age are a pain in the ass - literally in my case! Hope today is relatively painless!
ReplyDeleteAl, don't feel too badly...we were at our daughter's home Saturday for dinner when the 11 month old STOOD on a chair and was ready to walk off the edge! Grandpa DOVE onto the floor to stop him and hit his right arm. He has a HORRIBLE, UGLY bruise there and he says it hurts, but he did prevent the baby from falling onto the floor!
ReplyDeleteSometimes life gets in the way of having fun. Take care, hope you heal quickly.
