So ... DH got some discouraging news last week. His shoulder that he'd been having physical therapy on - which wasn't helping - has two shriveled up rotator cuff tendons. The only option offered was cortizone shots 2x a year. Otherwise, just live with it.
So he won't be off work for 2 -6 weeks, but he now has to live with two messed up shoulders.
Ugh.

Two months after writing the check to the fence guy, we have progressed to having the fence posts delivered. No holes dug, no posts put up, etc.
What a lesson this is for us.

I am now down 38lbs from January. 20lbs more and I'll be at my lowest weight in 15 years.
I am thinking of looking for a plant based doctor to see if they can help me figure out why I still have little energy and am still having sleep issues.

I watched the eclipse today. I knew I wanted to do it, but I had no idea how amazing it really would be. I had almost decided against doing it after reading articles expounding the dangers. Then I took a two second glance at a 1/4 covered sun, and was hooked!
I found myself almost compelled to look up, even when I didn't have my glasses on. It was a strange pull.

I'm going to be getting a standing desk at work! I just have to go over to purchasing and choose what I want.
I'm hoping this will make me move more.

Patient Saver - I watched this video today which I think you may like. It's interviews with a number of plant based doctors (Greger isn't included though)

I found it fairly interesting.

Wow on the weight loss! Boo on DH's diagnosis and I hope the shots help.

I'm sorry to hear about the rotator cuff but are you sure it's beyond help? years ago I had a rotator cuff injury after foolishly pulling all my weight forward when I put on a pair of cross country skis. The doctor suggested surgery. I declined. It took a while, but it did heal on its own.
I didn't have glasses either but felt no compulsion to look up. I did go outside and spend time out there just to "experience" the somewhat darker light conditions but we had just the partial eclipse and it wasn't that dramatic.

PS - Two of his three rotator cuffs/tendons are completely shriveled up. He is thinking about getting a second opinion.
I had glasses, but I was sharing them with a co-worker who didn't ...
Snafu - I hope they do the trick for him!
MEC - I think I did sleep pretty well in my 20s ...
CB - Yeah, he's having a tough time dealing with it.

Sorry about your husband's rotator cuffs. Ouch.
