Catching up

It has been a while since we last posted so I thought we should catch up on things happening aboard Paradigm Shift.

Our first days home would be spent washing the hull and the windows to get all the salt off from the two week trip home from Kemah, Texas.  Normally it would be Greg and I working to clean her up but unfortunately we had a small incident that would put Greg out of commission for a bit.  Seems as he was disembarking from the boat he reached back over to do something and “miss stepped” and fell into the water.  He injured his shoulder and knee and could not do anything but wait for an appointment with his orthopedic surgeon to make sure he had not torn his rotator cuff repair.  With that, our grandson, Ian picked up and helped to get the job done.

Our orthopedic appointment gave us better news than we anticipated.  The thought was that he possibly had torn some of the scar tissue and possibly had some inflammation that would take a “Predpak” to help relieve his discomfort.  I am happy to report that we are two weeks post event and doing so much better that we will now just do a little physical therapy to make sure we have full range of motion.

So onward we go to get a few things done.  First would be our name change and making lists of other things we want to do and prioritize them.  For us it is more about efficiency of systems and then on to the aesthetics.  Our goal is to be prepared for a trip this year to the Bahamas if COVID does not once again keep us from going.
