Topical Arnica
Sleep: just GO TO BED. And let email draft season overnight.
11:30-5. Breakfast. Back to bed before 7 and awake a little after 8. Well over 6 hours total including sleeping through some of the impeachment hearings. I guess I consider that healthy. Woke up when cat decided she wanted to sleep on my pillow where I was. Better I guess that on top of me so I cannot move sore arm.
Had birthday celebration for mom at my sister's. REALLY nice to see sister in good enough shape to do a lot. Carrot cake and salad mix was a hit. Salad had pomegranate in it. Nephew and I have this pomegranate thing going from way back when pomegranate juice was maybe not preferable on apartment carpets. But it will still be time for a whole pomegranate.
Family asked about arm. I can do ponytail but still not french braid. Carrying stuff a mixed bag. I told them about arnica pellets. They asked do I want some of nephews arnica ointment left over from football. He says he won't need. I decide not to argue even though he is doing construction handyman stuff and might. Tried it before bed and decided to skip the ibuprofen. Surprisingly noticeable difference but by seond sleep spell, maybe different position, time for ibuprofen when I got up.
One more thing: nephew now has wheels (thank you "loan" from Grandma. slightly rolling eyes, Cheerlead for better financial decisions than..) Anyway wheels mean ride home. Weird mixed blessing actually: bus is biggest passenger vehicle on road, just less visually scary. Also the walks to and from bus stops are important increments of exercise especially with doing both less walking and les stretchign because of arm. SIGH.
Selfie of the day. Family is relieved that things look much better than last week, but I have to say selfies at 4x magnification are, um, to me a little disconcerting. Anyway even I can tell less red and less flaky but not completely improved.
I do not get the logic of how this displays on my PC but I never look at tit on my phone so...
