Arthritis Sucks
The test results are back and the big news about the knee is - arthritis. You would think with all the pain I've been having that it would be a cartilage tear or something but no, just arthritis. We are talking 40% deterioration in one spot and 50% behind the kneecap so I guess pain is to be expected. No surgery, at least not right now. I start physical therapy Monday. I also have to lose weight, take glucosamine, exercise regularly (lightly) and No Running! That last one isn't really a problem for me.
I think the glucosamine makes me sleepy. I've taken it two evenings now and both times I was sleepy-tired within a couple hours and slept like the dead. (permanently dead, not zombie dead).
The new computer should be here today. The monitor arrived a couple days ago and ZOMG! the thing is huge! While I'm really not in the mood to spend the weekend setting up a new computer, copying all my files and stuff, I will probably do at least a little bit. It may take a while before I'm back to normal though.
Not much else to share. On the reading front I've been reading anthologies lately. Roman and Egyptian mystery stories. Lots of fun to read but nothing I feel the need to review.
OK, this work isn't going to do itself.
