Thanks for the sympathy yesterday. I’m never sick and am so wimpy when I’m under the weather! Today I feel fine. I emailed back and forth with a nurse friend and she was surprised the Prednisone was making me sick and since I’m feeling so much better today, I’m not sure I didn’t have some kind of tummy bug yesterday that just happened to coincide with a full day of Prednisone. I’m glad to be feeling better and having an almost pain free foot. Today I can stretch my foot, bend my toes and have pretty much full range of motion in my ankle and . . I can walk without limping. I am one of those folks who doesn’t truly appreciate good health and mobility til I feel it slipping away so today, and probably for the next few days, I’ll be real thankful for my good health.
Yesterday I slept almost the entire day so I figured I’d be awake all night. I knitted til after 11 p.m. and then went to bed to read and don’t think I finished a full page before I fell asleep and slept like a rock til a little before 6, and that’s pretty normal for me.
Here’s a kinda funny, totally unrelated story: Remember when I was afraid Cat would eat my chickens? Cat is scared to death of them. Maybe it’s the numbers . . maybe if it was just 1 or 2 hens at a time but all 13 hens head to Cat’s bowl as soon as I let them out . . to see if he left any food. I usually wait til Cat has finished his food before letting them out but this morning, I wasn’t thinking and let them out and they chased Cat off from his food and the chickens ate it!
Poor Cat!

Glad you’re feeling better. Prednisone gives me the munchies to the extreme. I always end up gaining weight when I have to take it. At least it’s a temporary weight gain…or at least it’s supposed to be… Different side effects for different people!

Cat knows those chickens are vicious creatures and runs for his life!
I’m glad you’re feeling better today. It seems like there are all kinds of bugs going around now that school has started.
I’m also one who never fully appreciated health, strength & mobility. Now I’m at the age where it all starts to go downhill and I DON’T LIKE IT AT ALL!!!
