With my damaged arm, I didn’t sleep well last night. Since I had already decided yesterday not to do daycare today, I took most of the day to ice and elevate my arm and to catch up on the sleep that I lost last night. I feel much better today and my arm isn’t quite as sore.
I didn’t write down everything today, but here is what I ate:
Chocolate Malt-o-meal for breakfast
Berry Burst Cheerios with milk for lunch
Broccoli Cheese soup and french bread for dinner
Not too bad, I don’t think. I didn’t drink any water today.
I plan to return to program tomorrow, including water consumption and going to the gym for a little bike riding or treadmill walking.

:hug: I’m glad you’re feeling better, Shel - that was quite a spill you took. I’m glad you’re okay.
Just go light with exercise - if you take a spill because you’re in a sling and try to catch yourself with your bad arm - ouch.
Hugs!!!

Gosh, I can’t imagine how much your poor arm must hurt.
Be careful and take care of yourself.
It’s amazing how hard it is for us to remember to drink water, isn’t it?

Wow I feel like a loser. You’re broken (sort of) and I’m not (much) and you’re doing a hell of a lot more then me.
Good for you and glad you’re feeling better

I would take it easy on the exercise. Glad you’re feeling better now. Hopefully you’ll get a good sleep tonight.

Leanne and COABM, I think maybe I will stick to the recumbant bike.
PJ, it was feeling pretty good and then I used it a lot to play a game with my kids and then to take a shower and wash my hair. First time since I hurt it yesterday. Imagine washing your hair with your dominant arm bent L-shaped. AGHHH! So it is a little sore after that.
Rachel, You are NOT a loser! Truly. We do what we can.

They still make Chocolate Malt-O-Meal?!
(and how sad is it that THAT jumped out at me???)
I’d offer you some of my Vicodin for your amr, but I don’t think I can fit it through the broadband connection…

May your arm recover soon!

Thanks, R2Ks and Sue.
Thumper, yes they still make Chocolate Malt-o-meal and I love it. Thanks for the vicodin offer, but so far Advil is working and if not, I have some Darvocet that I can use. :winking:

Wow! I hope your arm is better soon! I’m glad you could take some time to care for it.
