Ok, so I am back from the doctor with news. I was right all along, I have arthritis in my knee pretty bad arthritis. I was told no walking for a few more days. My doctor said that if it gets worse to let him know. I am going nuts with not being able to do my walking as much as I have been. But I think my body does need the rest.
On other news… I got an unexpected visit today. TOM showed its ugly head two weeks earlier than I thought that it would be here. I guess it is a good thing it is coming more “regularly” about every other month, but I have so much work to do on my classroom tomorrow I don’t know how I am going to get it done. My first full day is always really bad, and the poor art teacher is going to have to deal with me cuz he is driving tomorrow!   So i am thinking that maybe my craving for salty chips earlier this week was due to me getting my TOM. That would make sense. It doesn’t really explain the being tired in the afternoons, but the doctor said it could be due to the bit of depression I have been experiencing.

So I guess I had an ok day. I am glad to know what is wrong with my knee but also sad to know that it is something that isn’t going to go away completely and that will hinder my walking for a long time to come. The hard thing is that there isn’t a lot to take for it  at least for me right now in case I end up pregnant on my own. I can’t be on a lot of the meds.
Well I am off to lay down on the couch for a while, darn TOM!!!!
