lazy monday?
we can actually now see the dining room floor.
nala sorted books, and i managed to haul another bookshelf upstairs without killing myself. yes, me. bum knee and all. i also unpacked another 3-4 boxes of books.
sunday, i unpacked books and then hung the drapery rod in the back window. i need to buy the sheer panel. and the thread to hem them all. oh, and I suppose also starch and iron them. that, friends, is going to be a treat.
but at least now i have the room to do it.
juice and the Vee came over last night for a welcome-home cookout with insanely huge burgers and a fresh salad that was to die for (thanks Vee!). Literally all we had to do was play hosts and serve cake.
My knee, despite the stiffness, I think is getting better. Stronger, for sure. I have these exercises I'm supposed to be doing, and I'm trying to do them casually, when I think of it. They're an inconvenience... but I can do them here at work. I put my foot up on the bottom file drawer and clench the muscles in my leg, pulling my kneecap northward. Repeat 100 times. (No, I'm not kidding). Also, seated toe-touching to stretch the hamstring. 100 times. Yes, again, not kidding.
When in pain, the Vioxx seems to help.
