Shout out to everyone who is having a flare up during the holidays or because of them
Yes I know my limits
And yes I went past them

A photo of the other thing I’ve been working on: crochet market bags! My brother wants to make a bunch to give as christmas presents this year and I needed something very mindless to craft to keep myself sitting still so I can rest and recover from this darn cold, so I’ve been helping with the mesh portions of some of the bags
#crochet wip#I get antsy if I haven’t crafted anything in a while#and oh my gosh I just realized that’s a trait in the sims. huh. what a thing to realize about myself lol#anyway my brother also crochets! he’s making the majority of these#but just like last year he decided to crochet everyone gifts in like. November.#so I’m chipping in to help get them all done in time :P#he could get them done I have no doubt#but this way saves him repetitive motion injuries from crocheting too much#and lets me reinforce the ‘crochet without looking’ muscle memory I have from when it was my primary craft#and gets me to SIT STILL so I don’t iron and cut a whole bunch of fabric and overdo it#which is not what I did today (okay it’s totally what I did today)

Despite everything, it's still you.
#me#ive cut back on lifting a lot due to injuries and struggles with my joints and instead picked up lane swimming in march#i had never used a public pool in my life and never swam with intent before#it was new and kind of terrifying but i needed to move my body again in a way that didnt cause pain#the first few times were pretty rough- i couldnt swim well or hold my breath and struggled with the repetitive motion and breathing#one day beams of sunlight shone through the airy space and large windows and cast shining watery reflections on the pool's bottom#i had been learning water caustics for 3d art and i loved to watch them#its gotten a lot easier now and i can let my mind wander and enjoy the sensations instead of worrying about drowning#the cool water on my skin#the muffled amniotic sounds of bubbling fluids#the mosaic tiles and patterns#the sunlight and caustics#every time i go its a social stress test- but I've gotten better at handling it and it helps me connect with other people in a tiny way#i dont know what the future of my body's training will look like as i plow into middle age#but im proud of myself for doing something totally new and finding joy in it

Did yoga with play friend for the first time in like...2 months and boy howdy was it a workout
#reminded me of all the casual tight spots that are very possibly repetitive motion injuries or similar#i always forget how weird my left shoulder is until i have to do a yoga pose#and then im like 'oh. huh. that is probably not great.'

i know the answer is just that i have a disability but i don't understand how people knit without hurting themselves.
#i don't think it counts as a repetitive motion injury if i knit 40 sts and i'm already getting nerve pain#knitting is so much more relaxing than crochet.... why does it hurt me so much more#i just needed a small square for a project and i'm just gonna have to switch to crochet#i even did knitting stretches! i looking up tutorials of how to put less stress on your hands! it did nothing!#personal#i can't wait to go to physical therapy. it won't fix me but it can't make me worse.

Putting myself in knitting/crochet jail bc I strained a muscle/tendon but I’m currently hyperfixated on it so I’m like.
#it’s almost like I have a disorder that causes frequent injuries from repetitive motion in my muscles and joints#it’s almost like I should be careful about that#it’s almost like I also compress nerves extremely easily but will go ‘just one more row’ even when my hand has started going numb#it’s not MY fault I compressed my right radial and ulnar nerves once and now they do it again after more than five minutes in the#same position

i love talking to people without it about chronic pain
like “yeah, anything under a 7 is a good day”
*screeching* “Seven?!! a seven?! out of ten?! I go to the hospital when I’m at a 4”
“oh well my baseline pain is a 3-5 daily. I just smoke some weed pop some ibuprofen and go on my day if it’s higher than 5, and if we get to 7+ i just lay around smoking weed till I fast travel into tomorrow”
i have a few fun stories about getting injured and straight up just walking it off, driving myself home, and patching myself up. I got my eagle scout and half my family are nurses and doctors, we just never went to the hospital. and everything they’re gonna do at the hospital I can do at home. while high. I can even stitch myself lol
chronic pains a bitch but so am I
#sprenposting#chronic pain#it’s either fibro or arthritis or repetitive motion injuries actin up. sometimes all 3

really lucked out with a job i kinda like that pays sorta okay cuz why do all my friends have jobs that sound like comically sinister medieval tourture tactics
#he works 4 days a week 12 hours a day from 5 am to 4 pm the first two days and 5pm to 4am the other days#his sleep schedule is in ruin hes horribly sleep deprived#and he stands in one spot for 12 straight hours and does one repetitive action like hundreds of times over and over and over and over and ov#and he doesnt even make a livable wage#capitalist hell#who fucking made this schedule??? the joker????#IMAGINE the repetitive motion injury#i got irreversible debilitating chronic pain from working at a Thrift Store like i can only imagine how fucking bad this s gonna jack him up#and his feet??? and legs???? standing in one spot for 12 hours?????#me when capitalism does exactly what it was intended to do#capitalism is capitalisming!

I got one of those ergonomic computer mice that are supposed to be better because your arm isn't tensed using them but I've had intense pain (and subsequent migraine) because of it. I feel like it's probably because it ended up being too large for my hands they said it was small so now I've gone back to using my old and faithful.
#almost of the belief maybe just repetitive motion in general is bad#I have a weird pain in my left hand from an old injury that means I have to be more careful with repetitive strain#I also sometimes use my mouse with my left hand which you can't swap with the ergonomic mice#just to keep things different#makes my brain feel fresh#okay this is funny I can feel exactly where the pain was coming from with my middle finger because it's still not relaxing with the old mou#mouse*

Me: hey I can't put weight on this because I injured it and putting weight on it feels like I'm injuring it further
The smartest person in the world: you had better exercise about it
#doctor at least had the decency to tell me to my face that they dont know what the hell this is#which#do repetitive motion injuries just go away on their own this doctor seems to be under the impression that they do

Wow, okay, the crowd has definitely spoken.
I’m not actually prepared to write anything now since I’m technically banned from doing any work that involves writing, stitching, etc until my new setup comes in. It should be here by the end of next week and then I will excitedly regale quite possibly nobody with tales of Grace Kelly’s wedding dress and the finer points of lace style names (again)
I may have misjudged the popularity of trivia on tumblr
And I might have possibly posted this now because I thought it would get, like, three notes max
Was I the only person who didn’t know that Grace Kelly’s wedding dress had needle lace on it and it’s so famous it has its own book or should I write a review?
#antique needle lace#needle lace history#I really just post for my own pleasure#every time people interact with me I am amazed#anyway fell down a research rabbit hole and even though it was enlightening#I’m not sure if I’ll end up actually using it anywhere else#so I thought#maybe I will post it to tumblr’#as an unnecessary kind of offering#anyway lesson learned#please curse repetitive motion injuries and ageing on my behalf
