Flare is slowly dying down - body not as sore, and joints starting to be less swollen. Migraine type headache. Icing my knee, because simply walking/bending down to do things like pick up a sock I dropped makes it hurt incredibly - don't want to deal with it, so I'm going with the RICE method before I add more doctors visits. Stealing one of Kelsey's knee braces. =)
Got my work phone, which is pretty cool - no need to get out my laptop for emails and meetings, the whole company directory on there, everything is so much more efficient than how I had it "fudged" before. Still - kinda strange carrying two. And the jokes abound (although I think many are not jokes) about how now I'll never look at anyone face to face again.
Have to make an appt for Buddy - he's having issues with his rear right leg. Limping a bit, trouble jumping up, trouble on stairs. And Pixie has suddenly become completely unable to go up and down stairs, even the three to the front door - I think she fell and now she's scared, and if she can't handle the three in the front, she definitely cannot do the whole flight in the back to the back deck. Annoying when she goes out then barks to be picked up and let back in. (*knee pop*)
