I stopped using the walking sticks during the weekend at home, though towards the evening my knee gets tired and I use the sticks a bit... I also moved on with my physiotherapy and do now more exercises. No pain but some of the exercises feel on my knee, and the feeling isn't nice. I'm taking it easy and I'm not too hard on myself.
I went to visit work last Friday and it was nice. Santtu gave me a ride and when I got to our corridor, some of the laborants gathered around me and asked how I was doing and then they insisted me to drink some coffee with them and they brought my mug, poured me some coffee, gave me coffeebread and washed my mug for me :) So nice. Then I worked a bit, had a chat with my supervisor and coworker and went for a lunch with my previous coworkers. They were hilarious and I had a good time :) Then Dorota gave me a ride to my hairdresser who made my hair gorgeus ^^ After that I walked back home, then we went for grocery shop, watched House and ate some ice cream (it was Tarmos nameday). Then it was weekend and then it was over.
I have started to cook and since I don't need to use the sticks all the time anymore, I can do more and be of more use at house too. We cleaned yesterday and I cooked for us on Saturday! I also changed the dirt for the plants we have. And on Saturday we went window shopping for paints and stuff.
Here's my ugly knee after three weeks:
I'm going to see my therapist tomorrow :)
Oh, and I kind of have forgotten to take any painkillers, so now I'm eating one pill for the night and I need to ask the doctor if I can stop eating them already or if I should continue still in case of inflammation... Which I doubt because my soles have started to look normal again :)
Well, I have been working hard today and I'm proud of myself. Now I can go back to planning house things :)
