the_rckI actually managed a nap Thursday morning. I was kind of amazed because I pretty much never manage that. Going back to bed meant not managing to do my errands, but it was such a great relief to catch up on sleep before the cleaning lady came.
I did a lot of walking yesterday. The Ingress app tracks kilometers traveled below a certain speed, but some bits of my bus trip might well have registered. My numbers for the Trekker badge went up by 7 km. I have to have walked at least half of that. I got two unique hacks and two unique captures. I used up a lot of keys to make some (by my standards) large fields.
My current inventory of Ingress stuff is pretty low. I'm not really sure how best to address that as I use things faster than I manage to accumulate them. A lot of players will drive to portal dense places that have been built up to yield higher level equipment, but I don't have that option.
I can't decide whether or not my Iddy Iddy Bang Bang story needs another chapter. I think it might, but I haven't found any good angle for one, so maybe I'm wrong?
I'm looking for a SPaG beta for the story, but this is nearly 22K words and dark and explicit and comes with all the warnings for trauma and abuse, so I'm not really expecting to find anyone. I just know that, if I don't ask, I'm definitely not going to find anyone.
I'm not sure what to do with next with one of my PT exercises. That one involves holding a weight while doing certain wrist movement. I started at 1 pound then went to 3 and now have gone to 5. Because of the arthritis in my hand, I can't use my thumb to help me grip the weight, and I can-- just barely-- manage holding the 5 pound weight without involving my thumb, but I'm absolutely sure I couldn't manage anything heavier without specialized equipment.
Basically, I can't let the weight press between my thumb and fingers because that pushes on the bone that's wobbly and creates agony. I also can't rely on my thumb to support the weight when it's resting on the thumb proper because that pulls things out of alignment and also creates agony.
I can still make the theraband exercise more challenging, though. My other exercises are stretches rather than strengthening, so I'm not concerned about increasing the difficulty.
