Ugh. This Happened …

Posted on Oct 5/22 by Kathy Steinemann

On October 2, I broke my right shoulder during a Fitbit walk. I’m right-handed, so this impacts all my keyboarding activities. Sorry, folks, but I won’t be blogging for a while.

I am so sorry! What rotten luck!
Please accept my best wishes that you recover soon and can spend your time convalescing peacefully and eventually with fulfilment and joy.
I wonder if you are encouraged to try a dictation programme? Just a thought.
In the meantime, I shall miss your useful and entertaining posts.
Looking forward to your return – when you are fully recovered.
Sending kindest thoughts.

James Milson on Oct 5/22 at 12:21 pm said:

I went thru a similar thing last year with severe carpal tunnel issues and surgeries on both hands the same day, losing feeling and sensitivity in both hands for nearly a year last year followed by rotator cuff surgery on my right shoulder four months later, so know how you feel. Best wishes and speedy recovery, Kathy!

Stupid FitBit walks! xxx

Have a speedy recovery.

When I had shoulder surgery on my right shoulder, I used dragon speaking naturally. It wasn’t perfect but was 85% on the spot. This was years ago, I assume using voice to typing is better now and might be a solution for you.
- Kathy Steinemann on Oct 10/22 at 4:02 pm said:
  
  Thanks, Z. I tried it a while back, but it isn’t suitable for the types of posts I create. 🙁

  Thanks, Anne.
Tom Austin on Oct 5/22 at 10:45 am said:

Does this mean we can look forward to a new word list? 1001 ways to say “ARGH”, or “these pain meds stink, where’s’s my martini?” Get better Kathy.
- Kathy Steinemann on Oct 10/22 at 3:58 pm said:
  
  😉 Maybe … Thanks for the ideas, Tom.

Alicia Butcher Ehrhardt on Oct 5/22 at 10:34 am said:

Eeek! So sorry to hear. We can be patient – you need to take extra care of that shoulder. Do NOT come back until it is properly healed.

Then you can tell us the details – I doubt I’d forget them if I were you. Bummer.

  Thanks, Alicia.
