That's easily explained:
I can't start the old lawnmower on my own.
I had to wait for the weekend every time I wanted to mow the lawn, so that my son helped me starting it. Though it was way easier to work with it (it's a riding mower), I prefer the new one, because I can use it whenever I want. And, maybe I'm weird, but I know that I have "done something" when I've finished mowing, because I'm exhausted afterwards.

It gives you a greater sense of accomplishment, then.

Watching the sky. There's a load of laundry drying outside, and there are more and more clouds, getting darker every minute. If it starts raining, I'll have to take the laundry inside.

Looks like the Laundry Monster Rescue Service has swung into action.

Not yet. I'm still waiting, watching and listening (thunder).

Just coming from outside. I've closed my car's windows.

Icing my shoulder after exercising it.

I hope both will help. Exercising for the shoulder, and icing because of the pain, I guess?

The excercises at this stage are quite basic. Their purpose is to maintain flexibility of the joints in the arm while it's in a sling for 6 weeks. The ice is to control any swelling that arises. I'm taking Tylenol 3 for the pain.
