Placeholder 10/08/16

Despite best intentions to get back into this, it is clear that the deterioration to my Right Shoulder will prevent any further progress until it is repaired. Because our insurance/medical system is currently broken, this will not happen this year and may be well into next year before there is even the possibility of this happening.

I will be starting physical therapy on 10/17/16, unless the therapist punches it back. Basically, I have to undergo 6 weeks of physical therapy for 2X a week to further destroy an already wrecked joint until I can get an MRI to figure out what's going on and determine if my next step is lifelong pain management or surgery. As it is now, I'm probably more likely courting cirrhosis by the loving combination of NSAIDs for when the pain is too intrusive and the throes of beer I seem to find myself in lately.

It will get better and now that my actual work flow is slowing somewhat due to a seasonal change, I can finally start moving on that, but the lack of updates due to a lack of actual engagement with the activities this blog is around is due solely to injury.

See you in 2017, hopefully...
