I hurt my wrist somehow yesterday, right wrist. I am basically typing one-handed and doing everything else I can one handed but old lefty is not so coordinated. I have no idea what I did, I just started hurting badly yesterday morning. If its no better tomorrow I'm off to the doc.
In the meantime I thought last night I was feeling kind of bad, sore throat, tired, cold. Yep. I am sick this morning - so far it feels like it'll just be a cold, and I hope its a quick one. I'm sure I picked it up travelling - between getting kissed on the cheek by tons of old ladies, shaking hands and hugging lots of old men, and the flghts and germy airports, it was bound to happen I guess.
I feel like poop.
Food, I am not sure. It hurts to use a fork. I couldn't eat dinner last night because of that and ended up just drinking some milk, which husband had to pour and I had to hold in my left hand.
I might live on tea and honey for most of the day and maybe throw in a protein drink. Or soup, with my left hand. I can see it now all over me!

Put the soup in a mug.

Its swollen around the thumb joint and up the wrist, and the main pain comes from doing anything where I need an opposable thumb. I broke my left wrist a while ago (and my left ankle at the same time). That was bad enough, but the right hand NOOOOO. Yes wiping the bum was an experience this morning.
It sounds like you really did something to it. Are you an active sleeper and maybe did something in the night? I sometimes whack a hand into the wall (when awake), forget about it at the time and then an surprized later when it bruises. I think since I have lost weight, I get messed up about how much space I am taking up. But you'd think I'd be less likely to whack....
My feet are back to hurting - I think it is the cool damp weather we have now. And with trying to increase my walking, I do sort of lurch around sometimes. Me in motion is not the most graceful sight sometimes - LOL!

Sorry to hear about the hand Jenn. Hope it's nothing and you get better quickly!
My brother-in-law broke both his collarbone and both arms at the same time, he couldn't use his hands at all because they were straight out in front of him (cast that way). So he even had to be fed, not to mention wiped. Poor guy!
Pre B - SF NF Eggnog Latte
B - cottage cheese and Splenda peaches
S - nothing
L - Leftover Vietnamese Shrimp roll
S - nothing off to dentist to start work on 3 crowns!
D - depends on how much I hurt, but milk for sure
S - ?

Well feeling sick didn't kill my appetite sadly. I over-ate majorly today!!
B - tea and honey (1T)
S - apple nutrigrain bar (no nutritional value whatsoever, thus explaining why it tasted so good)
S - half of a protein shake (42g myoplex shared with husband who is now also sick)
L - half of a frozen dinner (breaded chicken and corn)
S - 2 small pierogies
S - 2 more cups of tea with 2 more T of honey
D - 2 egg omelet with green chilies, onion, ham, and cheese, about a pint of grape tomatoes over the evening
S - 1/4c chocolate ice cream (you know, for my throat)
I do not want to even attempt to tally these totals. I am not emotionally stable enough to handle it. Here's to a better day tomorrow.

Is it something carpal tunnel-ish? I used to get serious wrist pain around grant writing time due to all the nonstop typing I did while I was writing grants.
I'm worn to the bone. I went in at 7 AM to finish a contract, and I have another short turnout assignment that didn't get done today (because I was in meetings all day), so it looks like another very early day tomorrow, ugh. I came on board at the busiest time of the year.
Eating today was odd again.
B: big azz mug of decaf and EAS protein drink
S: EAS protein drink
S2: EAS protein drink and another big azz mug of coffee
L: lunch meeting, ordered ham and cheese wrap on spinach tortilla. I think the ham must have been honey ham or sugared ham, because I was sick as a dog about an hour later. Without getting too graphic, it was blowout time. Lucky for me, I was near the bathroom.
D: bought some wor wonton soup and steamed dumplings to take home. Ate two dumplings and half the soup, but it felt like it was sitting funny. While I was deciding whether or not I was still hungry, our shih-tzu hopped up on my lap, let out a loud belch, then promply horked all over my shirt. That was fun. Decided I was done with dinner.
Later snack: felt my protein was down, so I had three EAS protein drinks during the evening. Stomach feels less violated now.
