Hi!
We returned last evening. I couldn't post till now. I'll explain then.
LB, Good you got to sleep in Saturday morning. And Copper till 10am! lol I'm sure your house smelled good with your meal preps. You make good desserts too I remember.
Uh oh about your day today. Was work rough? You work from home this week .. I think?
Today's quote #3. LOL
Phyl,
I definitely hope you're feeling better now!! Your symptoms sounded rough. Oh my Jim gave you Zicam to appease your anger.
Hey I hear ya and understand about Jim's careless attitude about health.
Example: When in the depths of wearing masks and using hand sanitizer, washing hands etc I had to warn Charlie when we went somewhere to be cautious. When he'd go somewhere without me I'd warn and tell him to be careful and he was not bring anything home!! Well guess who brought covid into the house. Yep! Not only did I get it but so did my oldest daughter and son who were here one evening when he said he didn't feel good. Ugh. We were NOT happy.
Anyway
how are you feeling today? Better I hope or getting better.Well here's another dumb thing I did at the cabin. This is my #3 dumb thing so the saying goes "Things go in 3s" so I consider myself done now. Sorry a bit long.
While at cabin the guys were using chain saw to cut down some trees to clear and are then cut into logs. I decided to help. I picked up logs and carried them over to other side to stack them. Also pulled and carried smaller branches etc to another pile to throw on stack.
I was doing good too until I tripped over a tree root in the ground. Did a face plant. First time for that. Landed on my chest and ate some dirt. Luckily I landed on my right/good knee and braced myself with left hand/wrist because I'm right handed.
Guys didn't see me go down because they were on other side sawing etc. Charlie did but he was way over on other side too.
By the time he got to me I was pulling myself up but the fall knocked the air/wind out of me and I was light headed feeling faint. My son got a chair from the porch. I eventually felt okay with breathing fresh air. Then the pain set in.
Knee and hand/wrist really swollen and sore. That was Saturday. Sunday I used walking cain to get around but on my it hurt knee a lot and couldn't use right hand. Long ride home Sunday evening.
I've been using ice bags since then and today and I'm actually able to type this. Yay. Knee can bend a bit. Both are still sore but swelling going down. Tomorrow I have morning appt for my third knee gel injection in what was my bad knee but is now my good knee. LOL
I'll tell Ortho Dr what happened but I think everything is okay and swelling and soreness will go away eventually.
Needless to say I'm not going to help stack wood and clean up out in the woods any more.
I'm wishing you each a pleasant relaxing evening and night .. and me too.
