Oh dear :(

Well had a bad day at work on Tuesday , got to work at 7.45am and parked in the basement and then discovered both front and back lifts were out of order and if you don't know me I have osteoarthritis in my knees , walk with a stick and I do not do stairs. But stupidly as I was worrying about being late I decided to walk up 4 floors to get to my desk. This nearly killed me I was struggling to breathe and my legs were in agony and I was struggling to walk. Very kind work mates helped me to my seat and got me water etc. I struggled the whole day and also missed my chair when trying to sit down and had to be helped up :(. Was so glad to get to the end of the day and I really struggled to drive home as by this time my knee was like z balloon. Got home crawled up the stairs to my bed and looked at my right knee and the swelling was all around my knee and for at least 6" below and above. So it was time to dose up on pain meds and stay where I was.

On Wednesday I had appointment with the doctor and was still not able to drive so hubby had to take me. Doctor gave me a line for 2 weeks to allow me to recover and take things easy. I took things easy for the rest of the day then mid evening exhaustion landed on me and I could hardly move and my eyes kept shutting , thinks the ME / CFS kicked in and it took every ounce of energy to get up stairs to bed. Crashed out and struggled to wake up this morning when I phoned work and then lay back down and am still lying there . Have some knitting beside me , but don't have alot of energy so don't think I will get much done lol

Think I might blog daily if able to as I might go mad being stuck in the house for days. Please feel free to cheer me up if you can either here or on ravelry, Facebook or twitter xxxxxx
