Well, it's official.
There's a few torn ligaments and what they're thinkin' is a messed up rotor cuff.
Uh huh.......and if I had some exciting story to spin about how himself managed to do all this, I'd spin it. Unfortunately it's simple. He reached backwards/awkwardly to get something from the bookshelf behind him. End of interesting story. LOL
Voile'. One screwed up shoulder.
*shrugs*
Hey....I blew out my back by emptying compost from a large can. Dumb things can create dumber problems.
He's feeling dumb and I'm naggin' cuz he's doing stuff he ought not to do.
But I had cheesey potatoes for dinner tonight.
And the laundry's done!
And the dishes are all done and put away.......he oughta not work more often, don'tcha think?
Ummmmmmm......he WILL not work more often. He doesn't GET to work for a while.....period.
And he's not extremely happy about it.
He assures me that this doesn't define his 'manliness'. ROFL
Riiiiiiigggggggghhhhhhhhhttttttttt!
Then hows come he get so uptight when I make note of the 'baking with a towel in his pocket' Dear Liza moments!
We've done cortisone in the shoulder and that's given him a reprieve--which actually is a good sign and hopefully decreases the need to do some kinda invasive surgery. He ain't no spring chick who oughta be laid open to mess with the innards. *chuckling* He's 'old peoples'! LOL Face it, stuff just is NOT gonna work like it used to!
And besides---do I sound the least bit upset that himself is home doing home-ly things? Absolutely NOT.
I rather like him traipsing around with his widdle towel in his widdle pocket. LOL
He's meeting and greeting me at the door with a fresh cuppa java, forcryingoutloud!
What's to NOT like about THAT?!
*shrugs* I guess we see where all this takes us.
Personally, I think retirement looks good on him.
And I really will get him a cute little apron next time I'm out and about.
I'm a woman of my word, dangit! ;-)

that's so funny I think of him as in his mid 20s. . .
:-)
not funny about his shoulder tho, would hug him - but don't want it to hurt!
*wishing it better*
One can get fooled and do TOO much when those cortisone shots kick in. That cortisone can make one feel so good that one just might over-do it. You might remind the Brit about this...hmmm?
I got the warm cozies when you mentioned being greeted at the door with a fresh cuppa joe.
Sweet!
:-)
pobricito....hope he takes it easy to heal quickly!
(ya know...they have halloween type of aprons...I bet you could find a matching towel...but don't tell anyone I told you...)
i'm sorry to hear the brit is broken. i heard baking is a good remedy for torn ligaments. maybe he should do more of it.
Well, maybe now he'll get some rest (the forceful way)!
My father in law did this a few years ago. He did end up having the surgery (I think he was almost 70 at the time), and though it was painful at first, his recovey was swift.
-t (who votes for an apron with lots of spidery critters)
