As of Monday, April 21, 2008, with the agreement of my surgeon, Dr. Williams, I have returned to work on a part time basis. Part time means half days until May 1, 2008 and then we’ll launch into full time, if I’m up to it.

So far, so good. I’ve been doing mornings only, holding the afternoons for physio and stuff… and so far there have been no major traumas. My physio actually thinks that the return to work may be helping with the shoulder, but after only three days, its pretty tough for me to see much improvement.

Today is going to be a bit of a stretch. A meeting that was scheduled for this morning got shifted to this afternoon. I didn’t notice the change until I was at the office. So, it looks like I’m going to be hanging around for 6 hours instead of the half day. We’ll just see how that works out…I’ve been here for 2 hours so far and the shoulder is being a bit difficult. I need to stand and stretch for a bit, I think. There isn’t any place for me to lounge or lay down, so I may end up going back to the jeep for a little while, knock the seat back and lie down to see if that relieves the building pressure in the shoulder.
