I have not been able to do a whole lot since January when this all started, but the things that I have done when I can that were either accomplishment that I have been needing to do for years, or fun things include:

Started reading more books, both fiction and non-fiction.

Learned to add gel extensions on my nails and do some very intricate artwork on them. I have even learned to do my right hand as well as my left. This usually takes me several days to do as I can only sit at my table for 10 to 15 minutes at a time. Unfortunately, I have not been able to do this lately due to tremors in my hands, not sure if it is related to the medications or CRPS.

Got rid of a lot of stuff that has just been sitting around unused for years. This is partly due to us slowly moving to our other house in the suburbs.

Met many wonderful people here that start great threads, such as this one, that warm my heart, and take my mind away from the pain momentarily.

I almost forgot, I had a pedicure in May. It was nice to be able to soak my foot in a Jacuzzi pedicure tub, but the pedicurist had to stop early since I could not handle the pain anymore. It was still nice to get out and do something and talk to other people.
