This morning i went up the back to tidy up some stuff , was pulling trees out where we had cut them down
not big trees but spindly things, and dragging them to a pile out of the way up the back, whilst tugging
on a tree, i fell over a lump of hard dirt went backwards but my BAD leg twisted underneath me at the knee
and gee it hurt, i was holding it and making groaning noises lol, and thinking oh dear if i have to call hubby
and tell him while hes at work im going to be in big trouble for even being up here and trying such things.
So i hobbled along, now ive had a warm bath but since taking off my lymphodema stocking its worse i cannot
seem to put pressure on it, so have taken some pain killers, and imflamatories ,hope its better tomorrow,
doc might want it x rayed if not, so its pizza delivered for dinner as hubby has worked all day long.
But alas i probably still wont have learnt my lesson,i just cannot seem to help myself ,im always trying something.
hope everybody is in good health ,happy and travelling safely, i havent been in here for a while but when i do come in i love
reading peoples stories, i tell you what that glenmorgen place sounds fantastic im def putting that one in my diary.
cheers for now

These things happen so easily. This morning (0605hrs) I was lifting the roller door to my shed to get the car out so as to drive to work some 30klm away. I had my heavy work bag over my left shoulder. The roller door has never been adjusted properly since it was installed and is very heavy to lift. My son said years ago he would come out and help me adjust it, but it never seems to happen As I struggled against the recoil of the door spring, the bag fell off my shoulder and into the crook of my arm. It put me off balance enough so that I wasn't controlling the lift properly. Result...... a strain to the left rear shoulder muscle which gave me curry all day
It's not too bad as I type, but I can still feel it. I'm counting my blessings that it wasn't more serious and caused me to miss the entire shift.
An old friend once said to me that "you have to concentrate to stay healthy" and his words often ring true........... especially when I do something as silly as what I did this morning!!

My sympathies.!!!! As we get older we seem to fail to recognise that our previous abilities diminish accordingly. Something that I USED to do laid me on my back for 6 months, when I could of (eventually did) get someone in to do the same job for $40. Hoping that you get better quickly.Kia Kaha.

of a spasm ,im sure it will get better, and yes you are right im not capable anymore of doing what i could always do
but i was up the back trying to tidy up the yard just a tad ,oh well carry on .
thank you all for caring :)
Queen Kombi you poor bugger, yep i too said to myself this could of been a lot more serious, i dead set thought
gees the way i landed i could of dislocated my knee or leg in some form,as it was i knew i had done something to
it , luckily i had my lymphodema stocking on and i think that helped a lot plus i would have grazed my leg and im
not supposed to get a cut of scratch on that leg.
oh well its onwards and upwards

As hard as it maybe, we all come to a stage where our bodies are no longer as flexible as they used to be - doing up the house for sale has my body protesting that "we don't do this s**t any more" :)
Ah well, only a couple of more weeks LOL

Della, time to get out on the road and then the whole country is your back yard so you can settle down and the most you need to do is collect enough rubbish at a rest stop to fill a rubbish bag then sit back and enjoy.
I am glad you are progressing with your health and I will be waiting for your announcement that all the sales are done and the work on the Van FINISHED and you are FREE and on the road.
Keep going forward and just be careful as the bones and muscles are not as strong anymore. That old fella God designed us back to front as we should be feeble and stiff whilst a child at school and then be suptle and agile when we wish to get around this country and enjoy the sights.
Too many people leave it too late to get out there.
