Good morning all. I am on the train to Sevenoaks where I can visit the minor injuries unit to get my shoulder seen to.

It’s only 4 miles from home, but I decided I might not want (be able?) to drive after seeing them!

Sjoe Carol, have you made your appointment yet? ;)

Good morning, Linda!
Nice use of the SA word :D I'm glad you're going to get your shoulder checked and didn't absquatulate instead. ;)

Good mornooning, roommates!
Had yoga this morning after a long break. Expecting some muscle ache later, if I did everything right. Also am trying to finish up some work before I get two or three kids for the day. Husband is away in the States for two weeks, so I decided I need another child around the house. :D

A deal is a deal. I have sent him a message waiting for him to let me know when he has an opening.

It’s a rotator cuff injury. Next stop a referral on Monday lunchtime to decide if I need physio alone or an orthopaedic specialist.
Oh dear. In the meantime I take it that they have strapped it up (by the looks of it in the photo) so that you don't use it too much. I bet you that you are hoping for the physio option! The good thing is that at least you know what the issue is.

It’s more to remind me not to overuse it. It also means that when I’m walking my arm isn’t hanging free; the sling thing takes the weight of my arm away from the shoulder muscles.

That is good. Let us know if by this evening if you can actually feel if there is a slight difference after using it the whole day.

Afternoon all, going to try and get to DC Tidal Basin today since we are in peak bloom for the Cherry trees. Calling for rain, wind, possible snow on Saturday which quickly degrades the fragile flower petals.

Here’s this morning’s pix from the local TV news crew

Love the way they focus on the petals and blur the rest slightly. Beautiful pic. Looking forward to more after you have taken some.
