Testing the Knee
Saturday, I went on a 3 mile walk with Java. It took me 90 minutes at my relatively slow pace.

I wake up each day trying to grasp what’s happening. So far, I can’t. This past weekend, my husband told me he’s filing for divorce. Did I see that coming? No. He’d said something was not right in our marriage about a month ago, but we talked and I thought we were working things out….
It was a frosty fairy tale morning. So pretty. Good thing that something is pretty out there because my gas bill sure wasn’t. Doubled!!! I think I had a gas leak on the gas line going to the outdoor grill that probably took me awhile to detect and then another while to find the valve…
Yes, I can certainly tell that it’s almost Halloween. The gremlins are out and they seem to have something against my mailbox about this time every year. Although, it’s not just me. All the way down the road, there were other dented mailboxes and some must have been knocked clean off as they were bungy-corded…
I saw this Pedigree brand commercial and started crying. Not because I felt “pity” for the shelter animals, but because I identified with them. “Maery’s not broken. She has simply experienced more life…” Too often I think my X broke something so deeply inside me that no matter how strong my will and my spirit…
I haven’t written too much touchy-feely stuff lately. I’ve jotted plenty of stuff down and then thought, “You can’t say that!” But I have a few revelations I’d like to share, although not in one post as I don’t want to boggle your minds (in other words, bore you). And I figured if I threw…
My mind is filled with inspiration and ideas And yet not much to show For all that noodling and thinking

I love the photo of Java by the river. Beautiful!
I’m glad that the leg is loosening up. After way too many bike crashes in my life, I’ve learned that if there’s no obvious serious damage, movement is usually good. From what you wrote, it sounds like the walking didn’t hurt you – so that’s good news!
Keep on writing!
Great pictures!! I hope your leg is feeling better! I have had a pinched nerve somewhere, I think in my back, that is shooting that terrible uncomfortable pain, numbness down my left leg. It is getting better though. It only bothers me when I sit down.
Glad to hear that you have gotten some writing done! Keep it up!
Beautiful pictures! Your soup looks yummy! Hope your leg is better.
I am so glad your knee is feeling better. I pulled a groin muscle runnin’ across the winter wheat pasture trying the head off two freight liner bulls Saturday. Never done that before…..never want to do that again. It’s just very painful. How is your shoulder doing?
Take care and try not to do too much. Haha! Farm life, that like sayin’ don’t eat again…ever!!!
Have a good day!!!
Maery…I could go for a bowl of that soup. Sounds like your knee is improving. Really, those pull up ace bandages that go over your knee would really help…from the drug store…try it.
KB – At times, my leg feels like there is something seriously wrong with it, mainly in the morning. But it does seem to loosen up so I think it will be okay.
Paint Girl – Pinched nerves are no fun. Sound like your sciatic nerve, although that’s more in our hip I think.
Dusty – The soup is good and I have enough to last me all winter I think!
Nezzy – Ow! Groin muscle bad! The should seems to be getting stronger with exercise and not such sharp pains from just opening a door. Your right, the work doesn’t take a break and wait for you to be pain free.
Lori – I tried a knee support I had laying around from a popped knee cap but it wasn’t right for my current injury so I’ll have to see if I can find something less rigid.
The scenic photos are very nice..looks very much like up here! LOL Your soup looks yummy..I guess it is that time of year! I hope your knee keeps improving:)
That soup looks fantastic…(I’m a big soup supporter)
Wow, you are flying by me with the writng Maery…and it looks I won’t get to it tonight either.
Great pics as always, and WAT tO GO on the writing! Go you! I agree with KB– keep moving! I’d had torn cartilage, and a severe stress fracture, so my leg has been pretty messed up. if you don’t have anything actually torn or whatever that needs surgery, you need to keep moving to fight arthritis– which it seems can be reversed with excorcise. (mine was)
Far Side – It was a pretty weekend and it sound like the one coming up will be even better.
Lynn – I’ll be cleaning the house for the next two days for a showing on Friday so I won’t be writing either.
Sue – The knee was feeling better until I started cleaning the house – all those stairs and bending are not helping.
