Another Friday Night

Not sure what is going on with my knee, but this is the second week that I am in pain. It started on or about Labor Day, laying pavers. At first, I thought it was the bending down/over to pick them up, but I thought I was careful to use correct form, you know, use the legs not the back to lift. Maybe what I thought I was doing right, I was doing wrong. I continued doing Boot Camp, because, quite honestly, when I am active, it doesn't hurt. It is when I sit for long periods of time, read: work, that it stiffens up. The suckiest part of this is that now it is BOTH knees that are messed up. Don't get old, my friends, don't get old! This week's Boot Camp still had a fair amount of running, though mostly strength, and today, we did Power Yoga. Don't get me wrong, it was still a workout, still got the heart rate up, and lots of stretching. We had a pep talk, but no sharing. I kind of missed that part. The other "odd" thing I noticed was when we were in savasana, and Carie was providing a meditation, I felt an emotional release. I had to tamp it down. That hasn't happened to me before in yoga. Full moon tonight, and it was HUGE! It started coming up behind the Rincons as I was driving home from Boot Camp, and by the time I got home, it was high enough that I could see it through my living room windows. I wish I could have sat outside, nice cool evening, but being the big ol' fraidy cat I am, here I am, 8:30 pm on a Friday night, with the alarm already armed. Welcome to my boring life! Two soccer games tomorrow, early enough to bypass the heat, I hope. Then on to mom's, whose TV is on the blink. She has asked me to call a repair shop to check it out, but quite honestly, it may be less expensive to just buy a new one. Flat screens are not that expensive any more, and due to the age of the broken one, it may be more economical in the long run. Of course, they just replaced their refrigerator earlier in the week to the tune of $1K, so maybe not! Talk soon...
