That was my fortune platitude cookie from lunch today. Okay, then.
Ankle doing better. Wore the air cast brace yesterday while cutting the grass, but it was really annoying for most of the time I was doing that. Of course, that's mostly because our yard is not very flat, I'm guessing. Didn't finish the yard yesterday, though, as the mower wouldn't restart after I took a break. So, I gave up and came in, took a shower, and iced the ankle. It started to get pretty sore, but not nearly as bad as it used to after cutting the grass, so I think the last couple of weeks of wearing the brace, stretching, and Naproxen have helped. After icing it on an off for a couple of house, I put the brace back on and the pain stopped completely.
This morning I was subjected to the Proximity Effect - a service tech from the mower dealership dropped by to look at the lawnmower, and it started right up. Of course. So, I spent 15 minutes this morning cutting the last part of the back yard, and have been taking it easy today. I have a wedding rehearsal to attend at 7pm tonight for a wedding I've got to shoot tomorrow afternoon. Toni's (hopefully) going with me as an assistant.
