Monday? There Was A Monday?

     There was a Monday, and I didn't post anything.  Sunday was a fairly busy day, once I got moving, but action has consequences:  grilling and doing a tiny bit of yard work left my knees sore, stiff and aching.

     Add in migraines and allergy symptoms despite taking the OTC pills, and I maxed out on acetaminophen and had added aspirin by Monday evening.  I have long known I was headed for arthritis in my knees; childhood rheumatic fever did a little damage, my 2006 motorscooter wreck did more (a lot more) to my right knee, and falling hard on my left knee over a year ago added to it.  The bill is coming due and all I can do is take my pills and try to move more.  Might have to go back to physical therapy.

     It was a distraction yesterday.  Who is this old person I'm riding around in, and why is she having so much difficulty standing and walking?  Oh, right.  Still me.  She's gonna have to keep at it.

     Current events keep on currenting.  I note with interest but without much comment that the President's "Liquor Cabinet" has shed another member.  All women so far -- but remember, "Women and children first," leaves plenty of leeway for SecDef, the FBI director and possibly the Secretary of State to hit the lifeboats in the first round.  There's probably a betting pool -- but don't you have better things to do with your money?
