9 days ’til launch. I’m feeling stressed enough that I spent some time this morning making to-do lists, which are now all over my fridge. That helped.
The stress is in part because last night, I made a little snowdrop, and that caused my stupid wrist injury to flare up badly — it turns out that cutting out each petal and leaf cost me about an hour of spiking pain. Lots of ibuprofen and an Ambien later, I was able to sleep, and it’s better today (still painful, but manageable). But I basically lost five hours of work time yesterday evening, and I’m particularly cranky because I did it to myself. (I started rewatching Shetland, which is great comfort TV, mostly because Jimmy Perez is dreamy and reminds me a lot of my Kevin.)
I keep thinking that wrist is almost healed, and then something like this happens — it may be time to go back and get another cortisone shot, see if it helps. My right wrist seems almost entirely back to normal, so that’s something.
Anyway, I figured out that I could use the mat and rotary cutter instead of scissors and not aggravate my wrist (I cut with my right hand, but apparently it was holding the paper with my left hand that caused the problem? So weird.) Typing does hurt it some, even though I’m wearing a brace again now, so I’m going to take a break from typing for a few hours, I think. As you can see from the to-do lists, there are plenty of other things to do!
