Great that you're in no pain! My nail injuries were extremely painful. Funny how many activities we take for granted too, typing, doing up pants!

I broke my left thumb and my collar bone in March and had the left thumb in a splint and the right arm in a sling, completely useless -- I couldn't even type. Nothing makes you want to sew more than having your arms taken away!! Is your hair still long like your profile picture? The hardest thing for me was that I couldn't make a pony tail with one hand and my husband's attempt at a pony tail looked like a pony tail that was out late partying and passed out in a gutter... I'm glad you're able to work on your patterns and get your machines in for service while you're recuperating. Hope you feel better soon!Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14801489818836195754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339722470418175310.post-35968046236271333552015-09-28T02:31:53.467-04:002015-09-28T02:31:53.467-04:00what a nasty fall and how tough not being able ...what a nasty fall and how tough not being able to stitch for so long, the housework I would gladly opt out of but not the stitching.

From experience I can suggest you take care of yourself. Don't think you can do something the doctor has told you not to do. Go to physical therapy and do the exercises. You're young and you'll heal fast but what you don't take care of now may re-visit you in twenty or more years. Use this time to do something you wouldn't ordinarily have time to do.Aunt TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04833458576934375774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339722470418175310.post-581879294166784162015-09-28T00:38:47.936-04:002015-09-28T00:38:47.936-04:00So sorry for your accident.
