Oct. 16th, 2018 02:50 pmWell, I didn't finish all the exercises in my shoulder class, but got many more done than last week. Plus, the physio kept stressing how well I'm doing. He makes me smile, he's so enthusiastic and encouraging and great at pushing your shoulders into the right position. I find keeping my shoulders pulled back surprisingly hard while using the hand weights. The exercises themselves are doable, but painful on the bad shoulder on occasions, but getting the right form is another matter. I did side-eye the exercise that involved using a huge blown up gym ball as I could see it either bursting or skittering away under me. One for next week I think.

Five Things That Have Made Me Happy In the Last Few Days
BSB on Strictly. Admittedly it wasn't the most exciting performance, but it was lovely to see them, especially so as popslash remains one of my most favourite fandoms.
Seeing the leaves change colour. I love autumn, it's my favourite season and I love seeing all the trees with their beautiful colourful leaves. I love kicking at the leaves that pile up on the pavements, and that nip in the air.
Company Shop. This may be a weird one but Company Shop is a shop that's just opened locally. Only NHS workers can join, and the premise is they sell on surplice stock from the big supermarkets at a much reduced price. I'm talking bottles of milk for 20p, fresh vegetables and fruit for 20p, fresh meat for £1. Because it's surplice stock they never have the same core items, so you have to keep your eye on the FB for that days bargain -- like today is three tubes of Colgate Whitening toothpaste for £1, but it's already saved us so much money. And yes, I'm that sad that I get happy over grocery shopping.
Getting feedback for my fic. I love getting comments, it's such a good reminder that I am actually capable of stringing words together, even if I haven't actually written anything in a really long time.
My cats, I have four of them and love each one. Tinker and Freesia who battle to sit on my knee on a night, Milo who sleeps on my pillow and Pansy, my little scardy cat who will never be a lap cat but always comes to sleep between me and James on a night for all of five minutes before taking off on some unheard signal.
