Had a no so great day... I woke with a start and a severe cramp in my knee. Most people get a cramp in their side or in their calf, not me... I get the tiny muscle on the right side of my right knee and it is amazing to me that one little muscle can cause such agony. I jumped out of bed to walk it off and glanced at the clock... it said 1:40PM, which in my bizarro world means just after 1. I could not believe that I had slept the day away and still felt so tired and out of it. I limped my way to the kitchen to get a drink and something salty (helps with the cramping) and I looked at the kitchen clock... it was 7:10AM. That made SO much more sense - I only went to bed at 5:30AM, no wonder I was still tired! I walked off the cramp for the next 20 minutes, drank a Dr. Pepper and then took 2 muscle relaxers and headed back to bed. I barely remember my daughter telling me she was leaving for a friends... and then I truly did wake up around 1 in the afternoon. I have not been able to move my knee too much without it threatening to cramp again, so it has been a fairly stationary day. I have used the time to watch old episodes of NCIS, Castle and NCIS LA. I have done some writing (though not as much as I would like) and a lot of reading. I never managed to get up to feed myself, after the early morning crackers, so I was happy when Scott made me a cheeseburger and carrots for supper! (one of my favorite meals) Now I am just resting and trying not to move my leg the wrong way.
Until next time... write on!
