…and at least clean now!
Managed to get in the shower all by myself this afternoon…AND washed my hair. It’s a miracle!
I can’t believe it’s been SIXTEEN DAYS since I did this to myself! Feels like it happened just a day or two ago. 😮
But… Well, but it is beginning to feel noticeably better. Far from functional, but a fair amount less painful.With any luck, in another two or three weeks I can get out of the accursed sling.
{chortle!} Take another look at this thing:
Is that or is that not the business? I never have gotten around to schlepping to PetSmart and waypoints in search of one for sale locally. Though I can drive one-handed, it doesn’t seem well-advised. So if I’m going to get any such thing, it’ll have to come from Amazon.
Ruby the Corgi is too small to get on the Queen’s bed by herself. I’m too crippled to lift her up, and apparently will be for several more weeks. So the poor miserable beast has been spending the nights on the floor, in her favorite nest under the toilet, or on a big ole’ doggy-cushion next to my bed. And Hevvin only knows how long it’ll be before I can lift her up on the throne again.
The thing looks like it’ll take up an awful lot of space — and won’t Wonder Cleaning-Lady be pleased to find THAT contraption lurking in her way! 😀
ooohhh well…

I remember how great it was to shower about five weeks after I broke my wrist last year. I’d had my stitches taken out the previous day and decided I was strong enough to try it.
A friend had washed my hair a few times and I’d done it left-handed in the kitchen sink a few times. Very unsatisfactory results. Getting in the shower made me feel like an adult again.
As for Ruby’s staircase, you probably should have gotten that years ago. Post pics when you get it, preferably while she’s using it.
