I finished the bathroom remodel and now I'm closing the shop for
a couple of months. I'm having rotator cuff surgery on Monday. 6 - 8 weeks in a sling, right (primary) arm. I had bicep tendon surgery on the same arm about 10 years ago so I'm familiar with the overall process, PT, etc. There is some indication that I'll need the left shoulder done at some point but I've got a complete tear on the right side that's really crimping my style. I just spent the day putting the winter stuff away and getting the summer stuff out. Im pretty sore right now. I got the bathroom done just in time. It's a basement bathroom, mostly used by me, so I decided on a wood motif. Always wanted a room like that. Flat pine trim and matching accessories. Sort of a rustic, cabin like feel. The accessories were the last shop project for a while. I need a new toilet-side table, but that's going to wait until I open up the shop again.

The cooler/pump portion is $150, the shoulder pad adds $50. The one on Craigslist just happened to come with the shoulder pad. Sweet! https://www.sourcecoldtherapy.com/ic...-therapy-unit/ |

Sonny I practiced with my left. It's all good. There's a sink in the bathroom, under the medicine cabinet. I'll get the left hand fingers clean. ;-) |

Sweet! https://www.sourcecoldtherapy.com/ic...-therapy-unit/ I had same few years back. Found some things I had problems doing while in the immobilizer: 1: Tightening my belt: Attached a short cord with a loop in the end to a pair of long nose locking pliers. Fastened the pliers to the end of the belt and the loop over a door knob. 2: Zipping my jeans. Put some spare lead junk on a 8 inch nail with a hook bend. Hang this on the bottom of the zipper cover, then zip without problem. 3. Tying my shoes: Bought some of the elastic shoestring replacements. Still use them on one pair of shoes. 4: Answering the phone while Walking the dog: Made an S-hook to hang on my belt. Hang the leash handle on this while answering the phone. -- G Ross |

Crocs are easy in and out shoes. Comfy too. |
