Untitled Suits Me

Life. Am I right??

I dunno. So many things are going on writing about it here would take too long, even if I didn’t care if I bored you. Every day seems to add three new things. A healthy, much loved kitten drops dead suddenly. A pipe is broken in half with no replacement easily available and the tools I need missing. My bad knee went on me catastrophically….

Actually, a note about that last one. YIKES. That knee has been a problem since I little (cause: playground bullies) . “A problem” had not been too terrible. Now? OMG! I didn’t even do anything major, a slight twist. I thought it would be okay. I got my ankle braces adjusted so my limping wasn’t stressing the knee as much, and it improved. But, damn it, I hurt it again last night just dressing after my swim, and this time I could barely walk!

Anyway, my knee is a mess. I spent half the morning trying to figure out where I stored my knee brace. It’s impossible to get it on right. It slides down, or up, but never stays in place. I tightening it until it cuts into my leg and it STILL moves just doing my normal activities. And it’s soooo hot to wear! Here it is, over 90F, and a couple days from now 100F, and I have to wear this damn thing!

But I have to do something. It has to heal before I do a job interview next week that expects me to be fully able bodied. I can’t just rest it. Too much to do, including my first lawn mowing in weeks.** The brace might help.

I’ve tried to squeeze in a bit of sculpting for the 4th, to make a pin to wear, but it’s been a total flop. An hour a night for three night, starting after 11pm (‘cause..busy), has so far left me with three bald eagles that look like angry pigeons.

One day I will be back to “normal” interacting on Tumblr. Maybe.
