I'd try a chiropractor or a masseur, only I have no money and no work to pay for either.

But the future looks promising for you.  Hoping you and your publisher can get you appearances where you'll get publicity.  (Stephen Cole seemed to get events and appearances for his book.)

A place I like to frequent serves tomato soup, and the "croutons" are little mini-grilled cheese sandwiches.

Is that as hedonistic as it sounds?  ("I'll just have a couple of croutons" sounds healthy, LOL.)

Remember that time when the director's "vision" was to interpolate Santa into Fiddler on the Roof?

The humidity is killing me. Since my last posting, I have finished kitty cleanup, scrubbed the bathtub, scrubbed the toilet, taken the garbage to the basement, picked up the mail, and now I have to make the bed. The toiet and tub were not so bad as I feared. I supported myself on the right (tendonitis) hand and scrubbed with my left.

I am sitting in front of the AC. As soon as I get my energy back, I will make the bed.  I may have company later in the day, and I would like to keep the apartment's squalor level at a low number.

They can really really hurt you.

I think you should visit your physician to see what's going on. He'll move your arm around until you yell, but he can figure out what's going on.

I woke up around 2 a.m. with pain in my wrist. I must have had it bent or was leaning on it or something. It's the one I broke many years ago. They told me I'd probably get arthritis in it someday.

Elmore has already done more this morning than I will probably do all day.

The kitty ended up losing a tooth at the vet yesterday. It's a good thing we had her teeth cleaned; the vet said there was some gingivitis but it wasn't too bad. When they got in there, though, the found a bad tooth.

Kristi is about to drive out to Cape Cod, or to just before you'd go over the bridge to officially be on the Cape. Every summer she and a group of writer friends share a beach house there and write for several days or a couple of weeks or however long each person can stay.

Another weird night of sleep, and waking up often from a couple of stupidly weird dreams. I had gone to sleep quite late, but I kept waking up and feeling like it was the longest night ever. A nap would feel great later.

DR Elmore, is your tendonitis relatively new, or had it cropped up before? Is it a carpal tunnel type of thing, starting in the wrist?

I really like plays with music. I'd love another chance at playing Act One again, maybe even with the two pianos it calls for, but I'd certainly do it alone again if necessary.

Well the test results seem to be okay.

Of course I don't know everything I'm reading - but I am sure my doctor will call me in for a consultation about further actions.

I had carpal tunnel syndrome years ago, around 1981, and that was just in my left wrist. I had to wear a strange hand brace. I honestly don't know if this is tendonitis or some other plague dumped into my lap.
