I Am Sore Once Again

 Yesterday was clear and cool with a high of -3C (windchill -10C). This morning it is clear and -10C. Today is supposed to be a mix of clouds and sun with a few snow flurries thrown in for good measure. The high is to get to 0C. 

Lifestyle

I did my yoga exercises yesterday morning and I am stiff. I will be continuing them on a regular basis. It was good to do them even if I was stiff and sore. 

I also got the kitchen cleaned up. It needed my attention as I haven't been as diligent at cleaning it as I had been. It is now clean which makes me feel much better. 

I was at the community hall at 1:30 pm and helped to peel potatoes and get the food ready for the dinner which we served at 5:30 pm. I helped with clean up and left at 7 pm extremely sore. We had a good crew helping but it ended up that 4 of us (family and friend) were left to finish the job and I wasn't able to stay until the end. 

At home, I sat on the heating pad to see if it would help. I had muscle cramps and a large amount of pain. I hobbled into bed and fell asleep fairly quickly. I woke around 3:30 am and after a bit of stretching I had a crack somewhere in my right side. A lot of the pain I have been having is from stress and the weather. 

Sewing

None done yesterday.

Knitting

I am working on the transition row. It takes time as I am moving stitches from doing a knit 2 purl 2 ribbing to a knit 1 purl 1 ribbing. 

Thoughts

    Thank you Marianne for the article. I read it and it is exactly what happened. Another person gave us some words of wisdom last night which was similar to the article. At the moment, we know he is safe and we are satisfied that he did that. 

    I am still sore today but not as bad as yesterday. I do know that I am using muscles that are rebelling as I am walking down the stairs correctly. I am going to be doing more exercises to see if it will help me as I may need to strengthen my muscles more. 

Today

I have to do the balance sheet, yoga exercises and a bit of housework. I am hoping to sew on the doll's dress and to knit tonight. I may even try to walk a bit outside on the driveway. 

Until the next time...............................................................
