Just three things this round, so please read!
Medical updates, where it applies to my ability to do my job:
(1) Bone spurs & deterioration of some areas on my left hip. No surgery at this time, but definitely keeping up on my PT at home/work, and I’ll definitely be maintaining my current “no more than 2 pedis per day” for a while. I also need to stop doing children’s pedis if they are not tall enough for my regular chair (I am looking into modifications, so stay tuned).
(2) PT continues for my sciatica/lower back. I may need to stand/stretch during our appointments, so please make sure you are ON TIME.
(3) Had my ortho appt for my right shoulder today. Dr wants six weeks of targeted PT (different from what I did already) and he ordered cortisone injections. We’re awaiting approval. If injections/PT don’t help, we’ll do an MRI and possible targeted surgery.
(4) Official diagnoses of ASD/Autism Spectrum, Social Anxiety, and Situational Anxiety. I’m sharing these diagnoses because it comes into play with my need to stay on schedule (have you be on time or even a few minutes — no more — early, stay in your car until I’m ready for you), respond confirm to your text reminders, give me plenty of notice for nail art, etc.
A reminder about nail art:
(1) If you are scheduled for nail art, you MUST send me pics/ideas (preferably pics) *TWO DAYS* ahead! Some of you are trying to skirt by with one day, the night before, or even the morning of. I can no longer do that. It takes time to mentally process what I need to do, as well as physical time to pull all the things needed to do it. Without enough notice, my anxiety goes through the roof.
(2) If you are scheduled for nail art, please also make sure your idea fits into the time I have allotted. Yet another reason to send your pics two days ahead; it gives me time to make sure of that, and you time to find something else or modify if needed.
(3) If you are not scheduled for nail art, and you want something, also feel free to message me *no later than 2 days ahead* to see if I have time, and can do it for you. If I can, I definitely will!!!
A quick reminder about communication:
(1) Feel free to message me at any time/day. Just remember than I won’t answer you outside of my communication hours.
(2) Make sure to check my social media before messaging me (and feel free to FOLLOW me), as the answer to your questions may be readily available.
