Sitting in the coffee shop getting increasingly stiff and sore thus wondering if I am dying- (melodramatic I know)- caused me to search Dr. Google.

Then it dawned on me. Yesterday I tripped up and fell. I caught myself with my hands as I hit the floor and then got up thankful no one was around to witness my clumsiness. But paranoia struck about my knee worrying about whether it would necessitate a third surgery.

So I sat in my chair praying and asking Jesus to help me. Perhaps I was a bit overreacting to the situation. 🙂

But here I am sitting here in my coffee shop and the realization hit me. The reason I am stiff and sore today is because of my brief tumble yesterday. A much better realization hit me. My new knee is okay. No damage done. That part is not overreacting considering two surgeries and twenty-one weeks of physical therapy were a big part of my year.

So I am grateful my new knee held up.

I love the coffee mug they gave me to use for the day. Reminds me that I will see my friend Indy, my friend Todd’s golden retriever, Friday when I visit to watch college football game. Dogs make such good friends.

Hope your week is going well.

Thank you for reading. God Bless.
