Thursday I went to my Yoga class:-) Yesterday I was snowshoeing out to my car with TONS of errands and stuff to do before the Recycling thing today. The skinny part of the road is just dirt and rocks its southern exposure no snow for just a little ways all the run off washes it off there, well I clipped a rock with my snow shoe and went down HARD on my kneecap on a rock. This was WAY vcry scary (it is my less than perfect knee to begin with) take my breath away pain and then it seemed to go away so I was almost out I just figured I would continue my day. Well I had to run up to Rays in Weed to verify my spot and the whole way it was swelling, by the time I got back to about MT. Shasta I couldn't even think straight the pain was so bad, what all I was suppose to be
doing. I went to my friend Adamines and she had all the supplies, I put arnica gel on it and Tylenol (I NEVER take anything for pain) it has to be bad and sat with it elevated and iced. At this point I didn't think I could even get home. After a couple hours I felt like I wanted my own couch I went and bought all of my own supplies and had it elevated all day yesterday and I am going to attempt to hobble out to my car to do the Recycling Fundraiser at the Weed Rays this morning. Soooo I just go into this whole fear thing about being behind AGAIN with my training.
Two of my three Spiritual Nags (SNAGS) said to ask my knee what it wanted. Whatever? I thought that sounds a little kooky. Well this morning in my morning Spiritual Exercises, I got, Slow Down, Focus, and stay out of fear.
Another story, The woman that was my nurse 10 years ago at Mercy Mt. Shasta, Nancy, just sent me $200. Her sister had died of breast cancer and she also had a bi-lateral mastectomy. I haven't talked to her in years, she wrote me this long letter, she called we talked for hours laughing last night. We were in the paper (10 years ago) for starting that Breast Cancer group, I still have the picture I am going to find someone with a scanner and post it here:-) Thanks Nancy for really lifting my spirits, she also said she had some ideas of people she was going to hit up for $$$ for me. My friends Eve and Jay sent me a check Thanks sooo much for your support:-)
