Reaching toward full range of motion

The infection is in my left upper chest, of course, and I am in some pain from it, along with the tenderness that comes from a nicked nerve. I worked almost sorta a whole day in Mill Valley today (ate Marshall's turkey chili, he's such a good cook!) and the pain did not make it hard to concentrate at all.

Sooooo, I keep tenuously lifting my left arm to the sky, determined as anything to keep at it during my entire recovery. I miss yoga and can't wait to go back - but my pain has to abate, and it will.

After work I picked up Heshy at school, dropped him off at home, then proceeded to San Leandro Hospital to visit my dear friend Channa (most people call her Anna) who is in the transitional care unit and getting a lot of physical therapy after a couple of serious breaks from a fall. I'm so glad I went - she had made some major decisions today, together with the hospital social worker, and she wanted to talk. A lot. I do love her, everyone does, lucky me that I arrived just in time to hear what she had to say. I'm a good listener and a good rememberer.

Thank goodness the great weather is back. It reminds all of us in the Bay Area of how bad the rain made us feel. That got really old.

Can't wait to see Emma.
