Day Four

It's a good thing I am only titling this with a day number, or it would never get written/posted. If I were giving it a subject related title it would be "injuries". The word injuries, on it's own, makes me think of a lot of non-injury, bittersweet memories. If I think about it, I'll probably go pace around the house somewhat angrily for a few minutes, until I feel sad. Then, once I feel sad, I'll go distract myself. That's just how it happens.

Anyway, my goal of random blogging every day for a month just for the sake of being open has already failed, but the reason is injuries. On Monday, I hurt my knee doing lunges. In an attempt to let it heal I decided to be gentle with my right knee. So, on Tuesday, when I had to spend an hour and a half picking up golf balls, I bent down from my back mostly, and only a little from my knee. The repeated movements just didn't go over well, because on Wednesday morning I could hardly move. No sitting at the computer for me - too painful. Yesterday was an improvement, and today is much better.

However, I did just burn the palm of my right hand on one of the coils in the oven. Ouch. Ironically, I had just talked with Lauren yesterday about favoring the left side of my body to increase strength on that side. Maybe that was on Wednesday, actually. So, yes, I currently have a few injuries. The end.
