The lack of an opposable left thumb has left in me in an under evolved state, unable to complete simple tasks. Buttons for instance. Buttering another.
With no work, mountain biking, guitar, sport and minimal cooking, I am left hoping that Wednesday's assessment with the hand doctor will result in "Oh Mr Down, there appears to have been a mistake (bro), let me take off the cast and you are free to go (cuzz)". And for the aching to stop, at the touch of a beautiful miracle working nurse.
Devising new ways to occupy ones time has seen one:
- Attend a Monet exhibition
- Write and record piano music (for one hand)
- Visit the beach for photography and reading
- Write a short story
- Spend (seemingly) hours creating a pasta bake
- Journey planning
- Look for an office job (for one hand)
- Walk a fair way with an old friend
- Eat, drink and be merry
- Clean the house very slowly
- Rarely washing
There are plans to extend this repertoire in the following week. I had better get cracking.
Publish the story! Or are you saving it for your first book of short stories and don't want to spoil it?
