Wednesday Morning

Well Tuesday was a busy day that found me on my feet for most of the day and by late afternoon after walking in Walmart for over an hour I caused more discomfort in the knee and once again aggravated the Bakers Cyst or Popliteal cyst. It was pretty much a sleepless night in Seminole with my leg raised up and ice packs in place. Oh well I must slow down and make sure the knee is completely healed before once again overdoing a continuous exercise. Any how I will be laid up once again for a couple days but even this morning the knee is feeling remarkably better than last evening.

The day start with my usual 6'ish roll out and then my few quiet moments and the posting of this ramble before my light breakfast of an apple. I had lots on my schedule of small honey-do jobs since I was foregoing any pickle ball the rest of this week. The knee was fine and despite some lack of range while bending I never gave it another thought as I replaced window screening, painted around the outside lights and did some garden work. I never sat down until it was time for a sandwich for lunch. After lunch I jumped on the bike for a ride to the library. That was my first ride on nearly 10 days. I even walked up two flights of stairs. I thought this was a good test for the knee and was thinking about maybe going back to the rec on Friday for a workout.

Well after Amy, GG and Eliza Faye left to pick up the other kiddos from scholl we headed out to run some errands and then some major shopping at WalMart. I never felt any discomfort until we were about half way through shopping and then it progressively got worse. Well here we are again with another regiment of laying around, ice packs and ibuprofen, LATER
