So here's my latest award --
1100 Lifetime Miles -
(I started tracking in 2013)
Took Sadie for a long walk around Freestone Park this evening. It's 78 and breezy, perfect for walking! I could have walked another couple of miles, but Sadie gets to panting heavy after about a mile. That's ok, it gives me time to take pix!
Today is Friday, and I started it off with a real bang. I was getting dressed, putting on my pants - which I do one leg at a time like everyone else. Only I have it in my head that my balance is as good as it was when I was in my 20s..... Yep, you guessed, it's not what it used to be! My right foot goes in just fine (as I am "left footed" ) and my left foot got all tangled up in the pants -- kaboom, down I went to the floor - hard - one my left knee and tried to catch myself with my right hand. My foot stayed tangled, so I strained some muscles in my foot, my toes were sore all day. My left knee has a knot on it, and my right shoulder is aching like crazy. My oddest thought? Was "Oh no, what if I can't get up??? Will I have to wake my son and say 'come help me, I can't get up' ??? Yikes, I didn't want to be doing that. lol I scootched over to the dresser where I'd have something to anchor myself too, and managed to stand, to get into my pants, put on my shoes and hobble around the block with the dog.
As I hobbled my way through the day, I decided that my response to anyone asking why I'm hobbling would be "I must have slept funny." lol No way would I admit that I couldn't even put my own pants on!!! hahahahhahah
Ahhh, what a way to start a Friday!
*laughs*
