I'm dyin' here
I can't crochet
Got steroid shots
Just yesterday!!!

The doctor said
It's trigger finger
We must fix this now
We cannot linger

So I stuck out my thumbs
Squeezed my eyes shut tight
Prayed my way through the pain
With all my might

Came home really hurtin'
Like a wounded soldier
No choice but to let
My need to work but to smolder

I'm losing my mind
I'm snapping at hubby
Who, God Bless him,
Still continues to love me

So I'm asking my friends
At Crochettalk
To help me through
This lonely walk

Of doing nothing
And losing my mind
Without my hooks
I can't unwind!!!
