GOOD morning, everyone :D
8:21 am

Morning, wleki.

Scrabbler
Hello all. Welki, how is your recovery going?
8:26 am
welki
hi scrabs - it's coming along. overdid it on wednesday with a big shopping trip, i have to be mindful of my limitations
8:27 am
Scrabbler
Our mind wants to return to pre-injury/surgery faster than our body gets there.
8:27 am
welki
so i took it (sort of) easy yesterday - found luthier just about an hour away and brought one of my instruments to him for a repair. was like visiting with pete seeger :)
8:28 am
Scrabbler
What is a luthier?
8:28 am
welki
you're 100% on the mark with your comment, scrabs - it feels like, by now, i should be fully healed and ready to go, when everyone tells me recovery will take up to a year
8:28 am
welki
someone who repairs/builds stringed instruments
8:29 am
Scrabbler
I have had 5 abdominal operations, a concussion, and a broken ankle. Recovery is tough. Being a patient sucks.
8:29 am
Scrabbler
New word for me.
8:29 am
BzznBea
What stringed instrument did you have repaired, welki?
8:29 am
welki
you forgot the paper cut :D
8:30 am
welki
a guitar, bea
8:30 am
Scrabbler
That hurt SO much and bled for over an hour. Stupid papercut.
8:31 am
BzznBea
Have you been practicing a lot following the operation?
8:32 am
welki
trying to get back on track, bea. it's been a while since i've put some serious effort into playing
8:32 am
BzznBea
My best friend practices every day. She loves it.
8:34 am
welki
i give her kudos for discipline. i procrastinate - have to re-string another and i keep putting it off
8:34 am
BzznBea
Now that she is retired, I'm trying to talk her into "practicing" in assisted living places or the hospital lobby.
8:35 am
welki
that's a great idea! when my kids were small, they would perform at nursing homes and their karate teacher would corral them all for
8:35 am
welki
'in-house' demonstrations
8:37 am
BzznBea
She does a lot of playing and singing in a group, but she isn't comfortable doing it solo.
8:38 am
welki
then you should join her - page turner, accompaniment, moral support
8:38 am
BzznBea
I'm off for the day...Stay warm, ya'll...bzzz
8:38 am
welki
have a good one, bea
8:41 am
Scrabbler
I passed halfway. Time to accomplish housecleaning.
