Break Out the Thesaurus

Okay, ankle news.   Wednesday night, I was frantic.  The swelling hadn't gone down, the coloring looked worse, the pain was no better.  I was going back to the doctor Thursday.

Except when I woke up yesterday, the swelling was way, way down.  I could walk pretty well.  The coloring was better.  My last doses of doxycycline were for today, so I took a deep breath and decided to wait one more day.  And this morning, my two ankles looked very much the same!  There's still some discoloration, but that, I've learned, can last even after all the other symptoms are gone.  SO, one doxycycline left, and we'll see where things go.

Big game here tomorrow.  Lots and lots of traffic outside.  Time to hunker down.  Not this

but this

Hope your weekend is comfy and cozy, too!

...Christmas Eve!  My favorite day/night of the year.  Everything slows down, the world goes quiet, and we can follow Santa around the world...
