Things I did that I probably shouldn't have but did anyway this weekend:
Shopped for 45 minutes at the grocery store after work on Friday. Non-surgery knee hurt, surgery knee felt tired but didn't swell or anything so guess it was ok? Did use my cane, so not sure it "counts."
Stripped/remade our king sized bed by myself on Sunday, washed sheets & comforters, and did 2 other loads of laundry. Emptied the dishwasher and reloaded it, made myself breakfast, swept, vacuumed and cleaned the bathroom. Hip hurts afterwards, probably from bending/stretching? A little sore today but nothing major.
Ate a huge, and I mean huge, piece of coconut cake. No ill effects on my knee but there may be some on my waistline.
We also had our first "icy" day here. Saturday we woke up to 24 degrees and ice fog. Drove my bf to work and planned on going back out early to get my oil changed but due to the weather/ice I decided to wait until later in the day. I wore my icebug shoes (studded) and swapped them out to my regular ones once I was in the car as the car place you pull right into the shop, so no ice.
Attempted to use the pull on ice cleats later in the day as I thought they'd be easier, turns out the amount of force needed to strap them onto my shoes is just too much torque for my knee. So I'd have to take my shoe off, strap it on, then put my shoe back on. So I may as well just wear my studded shoes, take my indoor ones and swap them out.
Still a bit freaked out about winter and getting around but outside of moving on short notice to a warmer climate I guess I better figure out how to deal.
