why my thumb hurts.
my right thumb started aching, around where it connects to my hand, bad enough that it's sometimes difficult to grip things. I was all ??? until I thought "hmm, have I done something different with it lately? well there *was* that time I drove TO CALIFORNIA AND BACK oh right." not holding a steering wheel for hours on end for several days and applying warmth seems to help!

that my grandmother was cannier than I thought.
I had assumed I was going to have to get special spring clamps or magnets or something to hang up the quilts made by my grandmother that mom gave me when I went down to CA, but turns out grandma including hanging sleeves on the backs of them, so all I need to do is get some appropriately-sized curtain rods. XD it may have been in the pattern and she was just following it, but still--thanks, gramma!

that uh I'm tired.
not sleepy-tired, but exhausted-tired. even when there isn't a lot to do, rehab volunteering is hard work, and I'm very out of shape for it. so tomorrow I'm going to mostly rest up, maybe go to JoAnn's for Xmas ornament supplies and Home Depot for a curtain rod, and then Friday I'm going to GO DO VOLUNTEERING AGAIN yeeeeeyy *thud*
