olddust1 Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Last weekend I fell and fractured the top of my left shoulder. No surgery needed but will stop my scrolling for 6 - weeks. That is a bummer as some of you know that I do scrolling as a fund raiser for the Arizona Lions handicapped camp. Over the years I have been able to raise over $50,000 for the camp and now here it is the Winter visitor season, the best time, Well it is what it is.

JimErn Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Rough turn of events, take it easy and don't push it. But you do have time now to collect patterns or make some, and those estate sales just might have ..... OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCtoolguy Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 So sorry to hear of your bad turn of events. Like some here have said, you'll mend and the club folks will understand. Actually, maybe you can learn the art of one-handed scrolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RabidAlien Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Prayers for a speedy recovery!!! Hmmm....wonder if Travis would be up for making one of the monthly scroll challenges a "Second-Hand Lions" challenge and see if folks would make a project to donate in your name? What sort of stuff do you cut for your fundraiser? John B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
