1) Ongoing Wrist issues

Well these have gotten very bad. I had an appointment with an orthopedist who advised me to try doing as little as possible with the wrist for three weeks. So that's what I'm doing. It's boring and frustrating, and upsetting. So given this I'm not able to meet many of my goals for the month. (Also forgive the lack of formatting, I'm writing this on my phone with my off hand)

2) Post something on [community profile] ladybusiness

This is not going to happen. I can write on my phone, but I can't edit and editing is what needs to happen next.


3) Write fic on 15 days

This is still technically possible, last month I wrote almost 3k on my phone using just my left hand. However I have had neither focus or inspiration so far this month so I expect I'll only write fic a few days if at all.

4) Finish the purple section of the improv rainbow quilt. Stretch goal: Finish the top

Sewing is totally off the table for the rest of the month so this isn't happening. Very frustrating! I'm pretty close to finishing.


5) Do lessons 4-6 in An Introduction to Literary Chinese by Michael A. Fuller

This requires writing by hand to do right and I can't do that either. Still doing daily vocabulary practice on Skritter so at least I'm getting ahead there

6)Summer Excitement

I'm still hoping to do some fun things with the kid. There's a lot I can't do, but hopefully we can go to the beach and for some fun walks and things

7)Celebrate my Birthday!

Still planning to do something nice for my birthday at the end of the month. If nothing else I can eat some good food.

So how is your month going

I'm so sorry; that sounds miserable and frustrating. :(

Ugh, I remember re-organizing my life around a broken arm that seriously impaired my typing. "Do nothing" is incredibly hard! I'd say, aim for completing item #7 and call it a win.

Bummer about the wrist issues. Booo.

Fingers crossed for a lovely birthday!

It sounds very annoying, but hopefully the pain will decrease thanks to these sacrifices.
