So today I stepped over the dog, and apparently on some belly hair by accident. She yelped, I jumped. And twisted my knee. She was okay, I more or less got a dirty look, and she went on her way. I on the other hand took a gingerly step to see where I was at. Sore, but manageable. The positive point of this is I was sore for a bit, but no real pain, and no swelling.
This to me is a big positive step. This means I have allowed myself the time to heal that is needed, and am healing well.
It hasn’t always been easy. I am not one to sit. I like to give advice to people about letting themselves heal, but don’t usually heed that advice myself. The way I saw it going in to surgery is I could listen to the doctor and the proper timelines, or I could be back here all too soon.
I have been practicing my horse stance, as that seems to cause the most discomfort right now. Each day I hold it a little longer, and get a little deeper in the stance. I’ve been working at my forms in the physical sense finally. Slow and methodical especially changing stances. Positive steps forward. Two more weeks, and hopefully on the mats!
