Hey Babe,
Had to take an oxy last night, my knee was keeping me away, but I had a good night sleep and was able to sleep in a bit since I didn't have the PT guy coming today. I felt pretty good in the morning, so naturally, I overdid it today. In addition to doing all my exercises at one time, and taking my walk, I drained and refilled the horse trough. During my walk, I did all the standing exercises, so essentially I did all my exercises in a short period of time, which was probably a mistake. I had learned last time I was better off spreading them out through the day, but ignored that advice and overdid it. I ended up having to take an oxy in the afternoon. It's definitely a tradeoff. If I want to keep working on the exercises,which I know will advance my recovery, I have to take the pain pills to be able to do that. If I don't take the pain pills, it's very hard to give the exercises justice, because it's too painful. I know that the pain will only diminish as time goes on, but I also know it will take a long time. But overall, it was still a good day, even though it ended up a little painful, and as they say, no pain, no gain! Looking forward to it diminishing, and eventually heading north again! Good night, sweetie! Love you!
