Sideways

[billroper]

The snow outside is moving sideways across my field of view, because the wind is fierce. daisy_knotwise has gone out to do a little shopping in this mess -- at least the snow isn't currently too heavy.

The wind is whipping a piece of the aluminum facing over a board on the side of the house back and forth. There's nothing to be done about it until the wind stops -- the facing may or may not still be attached by that time. It's loose because it started out loose. The nail that held it came out of the now thoroughly soaked and rotted corner of the board, so that'll need to be replaced. *sigh*

Meanwhile, I managed to do something to my left ankle late last night. The poor ankle has taken a fair amount of soft tissue damage over the years and what it feels like is that I popped a very old adhesion from some old injury on the front side of the ankle. The ankle bears weight with no problem -- it's just that when I flex it in certain directions it says, "Don't do that!"

So I won't. As long as I remember. :)

At least you're not in Minnesota. Have you heard what happened to the Metrodome?

We didn't get as much snow here as they thought we might, but it's very cold, and there's a lot of slide-offs and accidents because of the slipperyness. We're supposed to get lake-effect snow the next couple of days.

I'm sure you know a lot more about the subject than I do, but isn't popping adhesions a good thing? If you can work through it and heal correctly? I'm basing this on novels where the hero had this problem and I don't know if the authors researched it enough so feel free to tell me I don't know what I'm talking about.

And sorry about the pain.

Oh, yes. Popping the adhesion is a good thing in the long run.

It just meant I was walking funny for a while. :)
