Welcome to Gaia! ::

no worries on the collages aaron if some weeks dont get one they're still in the pages to look up for fun later on. dont wear ya self out! and dang. 2x pay would be hard to turn down!

and ty mag! i went with dolly parton for the celeb look alike lol. i wanted a wavy curly big gold wig and checkered dress or bibs but didnt find just want i wanted so i went with glammed up dolly which she did alot of that too! glad ya like!

ive had trigger thumb from an injury back end of may gardening. my thumb wont bend at that end digit at all now. and i'm double jointed so normall that last digit bends back some too and it barely does that without alot of pain. just getting worse and specialist wouldnt do anything. they gave me putty to mash thumb into few min a day and stretches to keep it moving much as it can but there's a swollen nodule in the pulley they call it that moves up and down your thumb that the musles pull on to contract it. so my thumb cant be moved with my muscle.

i can manually pull it down with other hand slowly and with alot of pressure cuz of the swelling. to look at it it looks fine tho. but the movement is gone in it. i'll have to get a cortizone shot most likely to make the nodule in the tendon finally depuff so that the tendon can slide thru the lil tunnel at base of my thumb and just work normal again when muscles pull on it. or they'll have to do surgery on just thumb like they do for carpal tunnel just more minor.

Ayooo
Hopefully I can get it out tomorrow at some point xp

Got 5 hours last night, specialist appt tomorrow, can't come fast enough.
Taking it easy this evening and just doing my nails, already got a dent in one of them so imma have to go overkill on the glitter whee

I had the same thing with my shoulder, the swelling stops the muscle and ligments from sliding though and doing what it does.
Physio seems to be ever so slowly opening things up, can lift it more.
Still stuck sleeping on my back to protect my rotator cuff but I just can't get used to it, I feel like I'm being displayed at a wake.

Hopefully we three can get all rested up soon , I'm on medical leave for the appt tomorrow so imma try and stay unconscious as long as I can!

Sooo the appt was a total fart.
I walked 1.5 miles each way, the consultant I was meant to see apparently wasn't there.
Got seen by some other guy who said there was nothing he could do today and said they'd be in touch... great.
Never thought 15 months of waiting would amount to nothing.
I was in the consultation for 3 minutes.

Kinda defeated at this point ngl sweatdrop

I just don't get how they can leave people out to dry without any idea of what to do next.
Followed that advice and spent my evening at a pub quiz and somehow me and my bf won 1st place and got a tenner each whee
Imma keep trying, I should have a day off tomorrow but my coworker is sick af so that's up in the air. I hope I do have it off though cause I am exhausted.

You're better than me with the chores because I've been a beast pig from hell lately, the vaccum itself gathers dust.
Yours isn't "just a thumb" either it's your hand, they are vital and are what mark us as so unique as a species, not being able to use your hands properly is quite frankly an evolutionary injustice.
Yeah doctors suck like that for money, I think something similar happened to me, less money cause NHS and more they have to see a certain number of patients a day and fobbing me off was an easy one to hit the quota.
Hope the rockband session was fun!
Tyy for sending the pick me up trade that's so sweet

Dying some is just how you learn to die less overall so it's a net positive whee

Pride in my local town and the stage was once again right by the front door of my store, not mad about it really just got 7 hours of free drag queen entertainment.
Sales were a lil thin tho, another day of screaming about how gold being from a specific place makes it better (it doesn't). xp

Last work day done yeee boiiii
Tomorrow I'm going to be so lazy I will refine the word bedrot whee

Tyyy Rydia! Idk I felt like the feline one background might have been a bit too busy but it was the best one out of a ridiculous batch, nightcafe bad at cats it turns out.
Only found out while editing that Affinity literally has a cat stamp tool just natively and I could have just done a cute polka dot cat background crying

Nothing wrong with helping out that way either, I did all of the home help stuff when I didn't work, wanted to make the house feel like a warm bath whenever the bf came home
