Not a happy knee today!

The last couple of days the knee has been remarkably good, almost like I am making the whole thing up! I didn’t overdo it at all yesterday, in fact probably one of the least active days I have had since I got the Fitbit, but last night was particularly bad and today the leg has been really painful. False sense of security shattered!
I rarely alter my photos but I have lightened this one as it was so dark and both the cats were on the large cat stand and that is fairly unusual.
I did my usual puzzles and then some of the on line jigsaws before Rose got up. This one seemed particularly appropriate for me to save!
We went in to see Margherita this morning as Rose had bird sitting duties this afternoon. Rose took her birthday cards in to open a day early so that she could open them with her mum as usual and we went and bought take away cake from the cafe in the park to celebrate with her as well. The park was really busy as there were Eid celebrations going one and people having a great time.
Margherita was in good spirits, enjoyed seeing the cards and really enjoyed the cake, then we all did a word puzzle together. I had taken the rollator in with me and I walked into the city centre and Rose headed home, I really struggle with the walking today and was glad of a sit down and rest when I got into a cafe. I quite liked how this nursery had decorated their vehicle.
I caught a bus up to the Brotherhood retail park, and then phoned Rachel. I sat outside Morrisons and they came to collect me. Just had an hour or so with them and they brought me back to Roses. Was able to say a proper goodbye to Skip today! Rose got home soon after me and we have had a restful evening. Mimi was in a box next to me which was unusual as she is mostly high up on the cat stand. So a couple of pics of her to finish.

  1. That's a shame that the leg decided to give you grief after a spell of relief from it! Builds up your hopes then knocks them down again.
    That was a great idea to take cake to Margherita to celebrate Rose's birthday. I can imagine she really enjoyed that. Bet she was really pleased to see you too as it's been a while.
    I'd forgotten about the Eid celebrations. I usually go over to the park to have a look at things like that as they really make an effort and enjoy themselves.
    Nice for you to get over and see Rachel and family again for a while. Hopefully you'll be able to catch up with Anya today (Thursday).
    What is it with cats and boxes?
