The saga of my hand continues...

It's been 2 months now since I refinished our wood floors... My pinky is JUST starting to be usable a little. I'm able to hit the shift key with it now! A vast improvement since even Friday!

A couple weeks ago, Robb tried to straighten my pink and it wouldn't stay put, so he encouraged me to get it checked out by a doctor. I finally went to see a physical therapist today and she gave me a WHOLE bunch of exercises to help me strengthen it up. I now have putty to squeeze and a lot of various calisthenics for my fingers. Who knew they needed to beef up too?!

So, I'm excited about the hope that soon I'll be able to type with ALL my fingers again and spreading facial cleanser on my face won't make me feel crippled... My pinky and ring finger are useless on certain tasks.
