Hip is still sore and now left one is acting up, probably because I've been compensating. And my Fibromyalgia is not doing too hot. If had any sick days I would have taken one today for sure. Since yesterday afternoon I've been going downhill, and today it's even worse. Woke up about 5 am and could not get back to sleep, so I'm sure that didn't help.
Ok, I'm a bit crabby at the moment, but trust me if you felt like this you would be too. Sorry.
The good thing that happened last night was that my friend helped me suss out that I can get a scanner and more memory for my computer and that it should transfer over from PC to Mac when I can afford one. That means I can get started at least scanning my tons of negatives. We just have to check out one more thing and it should be good to go! :-) If I can't walk and take pics at least I can work on the ones I have already.

PT Soreness
I'm sitting here trying to suss out what exactly changed last night to create the pain I'm in this morning.
I woke up and after moving around a bit my right hip, especially in the front, was pretty sore and tight. My PT guy stretched me out yesterday because I felt a little tight around there, but that should have helped. Also, my knee bursitis is killing me, and just above my right ankle is very tender as well.
All I can come up with was that perhaps I added weight when I was doing the pulley machine. Not intentionally, mind you, I thought we were up to 15 lbs, and it did not feel more difficult than usual, so I'm not sure if that is it. The other thing is that he added more weight to my right leg when I was doing leg raises with the stim. I thought it was only a pound, but with my body perhaps that's all it takes. He did want me to add a weight when I was doing the side leg lifts, but he didn't get to me in time, but we did add it for my rear leg lifts. Other than those three things I cannot think of what was different from last week. I am stumped.
I guess I will see how long this lasts and report to him tomorrow at my appointment. The stairs at the subway were a killer today. Like I've said before, two steps forward, and then one back.

After a long weekend
I think I did more running around this weekend than I have in a long time.
I do feel a little sore in the right hip but not too bad, but my knees are killing me.
Yesterday we went to the Jazz brunch at one of my favourite restaurants in midtown - Le Bateau Ivre. It always makes me feel like I'm back in France. Although for some reason in the winter it always seems too cold in there.
After that we headed downtown for some shopping and just wandered around Soho for a bit. Out of nowhere the clouds started to get very dark and it started snowing! It kept getting worse so we decided to go somewhere and just get a bottle of wine and relax, but came back uptown just to make sure we were not stranded in case the weather got worse. We ended up at another of my fav places, Uva. I love this place, we just hung out reading the times and relaxing for a long time. After all the walking earlier it was good to just sit for so long.
I am pretty happy with how well I held up. Can't say I could manage hiking in Europe quite yet, but I'm hoping it won't be too long before I can get going again.
