Back In The Saddle Again!

[RolliePollie]

Those nerves aren't firing for no reason, they're excited! they haven't been stimulated like that for a long time. As Martha Stewart says, it's a good thing

Zen, I hope it's a good thing!

A few more hours have passed and my foot isn't swelling up like a balloon, so I'm hopeful. I swear my foot is possessed. I think of it like a foreign being attached to my body. It gets angry for no reason and punishes me with strange sensations, swelling, and skin color changes. It seems to be very inconsistent about what gets it riled up. Last week at work, I had to squat down several times to pick up files out of boxes and my foot went berserk. So I never know what to expect. And, even though I work for County government, my health insurance is a joke and my deductible reset on January 1, so I really can't afford to go back to the Dr.! Today was a big test to see what my foot would do. So far, so good! I have my fingers crossed very tightly!

Now...the not over-doing it thing will be my next challenge! Maillotpois, I may have to ask you to remind me about this every now and then.

And Starfish, I'm so glad to be back!!!
