Sooooooooo, My knee had been feeling a little better, and my head seemed fine apart from a few headaches, but I get them all the time anyway, so with the help of painkillers, I've been getting back to walking around properly, helping around the house, and shopping.
However, I'd recently broken one of my favorite shoes. So I've now wrecked the two pairs that I usually wear. So, because I have this thing where I hate wearing open shoes, I brought out my old work boots (steelcaps) and had been wearing them.
Apparently though, my injured knee decided that those boots are too heavy, and my whole leg started hurting. I could barely put any weight on it at all.
SO. I went out, bought some anti-inflammatory medication, and bought some new sneakers. The shoes fit great and are comfortable, and the painkillers work brilliantly.
So naturally I got careless, went out to my Youth Group get together which had prepared some fun games that seemed specifically designed to attack my knees. Now, me being the silly person I am, and not bothered by pain due to the painkillers, joined in, due to not wanting to feel left out.
Of course, just because the painkillers were stopping the pain, doesn't mean the damage is gone. And once the painkillers had worn off, I was in serious hurt. My Mum and Grandma have told me not to get out of bed for the rest of today and tomorrow. After laughing a bit and saying that it is just like me to do something like this. I gotta say, I kinda agree with them. Well, here's hoping I've learned my lesson.
Bed rest for me now. And I must go re heat my heat pack.
faaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiil,
what is sanity,
pain is not my friend,
