Reflections of My Life

[palides2021]

I am feeling really good these last few days. Maybe because I finally took the steps to go to therapy and learn how to manage this part of my life. My knees still hurt. Walking is still difficult. I figure I can deal with that. Just want to keep the swelling down and will do whatever I have to do.

Today and the next three days I am working on my apartment, Spring cleaning. Taking down all the winter weatherizing I did. Make it look bright and cheery for spring and summer.

My knees have been hurting lately also. Got them xrayed. Doctor said I was not walking properly. I was surprised. He prescribed physical therapy but I still haven't gone. Looked up some Youtube videos and started doing the exercises (strengthening glut muscles and not walking with heel first). Doing better. Good luck!

I thought we were supposed to walk with heels first.
Also I understood that to thrust out the foot for a step is supposed to help push water back up to the heart.

Good morning, I will be gradually catching up on this nice thread of yours.

You may have mentioned the answer to my question, but...

Did the new washers and dryers arrive yet?
