ouch, ow, blast, ow...
Blogging, I regret to say, is temporarily disrupted. Clearly grubbing for bugs in the compost does not work for me. Somehow I've managed to do something nasty to my lateral and deltoid muscles and the shoulder joint per se - on the right side, and yes, I'm right-handed. Now strapped up in a sling for a few days I'm left with only my left hand, which makes typing and pretty much anything else a bit of a challenge. Still, small mercies, at least it's not as agonising as it was on Sunday night.
I'll be blog visiting though, since there's not much more than reading and watching movies that I can do, just don't expect comments. I'll be back just as soon as I'm more mobile - try not to miss me too much ;-)

oh! sorry to hear the bad news! just don't get tempted to un-sling it too soon, now....let it heal properly!
take care and enjoy the enforced leisure time!! x :-)
Your left-handed-one-fingered typing is getting more proficient. You'll be ambidextrous by the time that sling comes off.
Get better soon!

Oh you poor possum. I was just thinking today that when this Clare madness settles down (read while she's partying on the weekend) I owe you a long email! I'll send one so you can read but don't feel obliged to write back. What on earth did you do . .DON'T ANSWER THAT! Big hugs and never underestimate the power of packs of frozen peas!
Take it easy. Good luck on a quick recovery!
Just read your story from a couple posts ago (I'm a touch behind these days) and loved it. Very well done. I wanted to keep reading...
Vanilla..get well soon
I just knew there was something wrong... and there I was fretting that it was poor Bo!
Hope you are much improved soon x
Ooh. Ouch! We will miss you whether you want us to or not :-) Take care of yourself! All the best.

Any chance Atyllah can be pressed into secretarial duties? (No, I didn't think so. Worth a thought.)
Take care, av. rest up.
Ooh, nasty!
Take care of yourself and we'll see you when it's healed.

Nicky. This is similar to what just happened to me. Ughola. I understand. The upside? It's nice to just ENJOY the reading of blogs, without any comment-frenzy. Trust we'll all be patiently waiting, and enjoy unrushed blog and book reading!!!
: )
I will wish your fingers fast healing.
Sus.
Sounds bad, I am both hander.
Ouch! You poor thing, that sounds really painful (and annoying).
I wish you better very soon. Of course you are missed!
oh no! feel better!
Hope you will suffer little and heal fast.
We'll be here when you get back.
Ag, shame. Poor you. Get well soon. And maybe you should leave D to do the grubbing :)
Aaw! Poor AV
Rest-up as much as you can to get maximum healing early on and then when the pain has settled, gentle swimming is brilliant therapy to strengthen up the muscles again.
How well I remember that sort of horrible shoulder pain. Here's something for you to read while you're recupperating...

Ouch! Sometimes we are compelled to just rest. Make the most of it x

Did you get some good meds to go with your sling?
We'll miss you, get well soon.

Take care of yourself and try to enjopy the enforced rest as much as you can.

Still recovering?
Good wishes for your recovery, Vanilla.

It's always nice to take a break, whether you want it or not ; )
Sending warm rubs down the inter tube. Hope it heals soon,
Ah, so that's what you did! Courage, and good wishes.
Ah - I heard about you on Baino's blog! Get well soon, my fellow right-handed shoulder injuree!
I'm told to expect to be in y sling for at least four weeks, probably nearer to six.
Typing is pretty slow, left-handed, huh?
Thanks to everyone for all the kind and supportive wishes, hugely appreciated!
