Tired

I have been feeling rather worn out lately.  I am now at a week plus with limping around and it sort of sucks the fun out of your day.  The intense swelling which kept the pain pretty centered on the knee has gone down a little bit.  However it feels like the IT band on that side is sore now which sends the pain radiating up and down the side of my leg, all the way up to my hip.   If this was the first time this had happened I would have a lot more concern but I have been in this rodeo many, many times.  The only cure will be time and consistent stretching.

I made a pit stop on the way home at Sam’s to grab a couple items.  The store was not busy.  I was in and out of there very quickly.  However going that direction during that time of day meant I got dumped into the quagmire which is Immokalee Road rush hour traffic.  I didn’t get home until around 6pm after patiently inching along for the first couple miles after leaving.  The new year marks the start of true snowbird season in our area which means pretty much anything you want to do requires you to wait.
