Ode to Napoleon


I dislocated my left shoulder 2 weeks ago, owwww. My ode to Napoleon is I've been walking around with my arm pinned to my side. Although I think my face looks more dour than his.

I've been to the doctor's 3 times to have it set. It is finally in and now I just need to let it heal (easier said than done). It's really painful and I don't even want to think about how much pain medicine I've taken. However more frustrating than the pain is all the things I can't do. But I am getting by. I wear a sling around the house but not out in public. Not that I've been out much. The walls of the house are starting to feel padded and very white. I didn't have any plans for this monhth so I guess I should be thankful that I can sit around for a couple of weeks and do nothing. I'll be glad when I can move and not think about my shoulder.
