I am a plastic surgeon in Little Rock, AR. I used to "suture for a living", I continue "to live to sew". These days most of my sewing is piecing quilts. I love the patterns and interplay of the fabric color. I would like to explore writing about medical/surgical topics as well as sewing/quilting topics. I will do my best to make sure both are represented accurately as I share with both colleagues and the general public.

Sometimes They Listen
She recognized me before I did her, walking toward me in the pet supply aisle in Wal-mart.
She giggled as she straightened her back and shoulders, “Hi, Dr. Bates.”
StorytellER: I agree with this. One thing I'm known for is my posture, despite the fact that me and Dolly Parton could be twins and good posture immediately highlights this fact! I usually find that my shoulders start to round and droop at the end of the day. And sometimes I find myself slouched in my chair at the computer. At that time, I physically make myself get up and touch my toes. That little exercise soon wakes everything else up...

ReplyDeleteOkay ..I'm lost.
ReplyDeleteBreast implants?
I tend to "lecture" on good posture, CA. So when she saw me, she straightened hers shoulders and back.
ReplyDeleteI need your lecture, too! The shoulders going forward are the first thing to tip-off that I am tired!

ReplyDeleteHi Ramona - Got it thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteI always had good posture until computers. I catch myself hunching when sitting for long periods and I know,looks awful.
Sweet that you made an impression on her.
Good idea Jabulani. :)
