Wednesday, March 28, 2007 at 10:34AM Arm of Doom: 87 million and one
Ugh. My elbow has given in to the Arm of Doom's master plan, and I'm pretty much worthless now. I can't even use a pen, so crosswords are out. I'm just so bored.
Some pretty fabrics to alleviate the hurt:
For small, box-like zippered bags. I was going to try to make some to sell at Justin's work's craft fair, but I don't think that's going to happen.
Fabric for Amy Butler's Weekend Bag. This will be the hardest sewing project to date, and I'm not even finished cutting the fabric. The black and white is for the outside, the red for the inside, handles and piping. I'm going to do my best to take my time and go slowly, because I want to sew something correctly for once.
Sorry for the down-trodden post. I have no idea what I'm going to do with myself until I go to see the orthopedist in a week. I'm hoping he'll just volunteer to cut off my arm and we'll be done with the whole thing.

have you worn an arm brace?
i have some carpal tunnel which can hurt in my hands, wrists, arms and shoulders at times.
wearing a wrist brace with a hard plastic or metal support might help..maybe???
Have you ever considered that this is your destiny finally coming true?
All of your wildest occupational aspirations have involved becoming either a pirate or michael jackson. Pirates rarely have all of their appendages and Michael Jackson only requires one glove. I say, cut it off, get a peg arm and then train a monkey or a parrot to do what your arm used to.
