Frailties

It would have been nice to have had three days of well-paid full-time work, but I know what my body does when presented with that scenario. So I gave away four hours of my shift today, and it made no difference. This morning left knee decided to do its Gloria Gaynor 'I'm gonna crumble, I'm gonna give out and die!' routine, as it did in August and for exactly the same reasons. And as I did in August, I shall see the acupuncturist about it day after tomorrow, and maybe once again it will clear up in a few days.

Is a nuisance still. Also percocet does nothing but make me sleepy.

(Using my carpet of gold icon while there still is a carpet of gold out there. Most leaves fell in yesterday's high winds following night before's frost.)

Much sympathy on the knee, and I hope it does clear up in a few days, or faster.

Thank you. Mid-afternoon I started to go downstairs at work and thought suddenly 'Self, you're walking downstairs normally.' 'Oh' said Self, 'work stairs have lower risers than home, remember, so you can get down them even when you can't at home.' But it may be a sign of recuperation.

I'm crossing my fingers.

Aw :( Hope you feel better soon!

Thanks. Some progress seems to have been made: or maybe that's the heavy-duty NSAIDs talking.
