Flare up?

It's weird how so many things are going off at once. I can't sleep on either side but can't sleep for extended periods even propped up. The right knee still threatens to go out even with all the KT Tape and since I'm walking in careful little shuffle steps, my left calf has a knot. My feet keep feeling like they're going to cramp now and then and things just feel ODD. Maybe it's an actual hypermobility flare up?

It make sense with what other folks report here

Well I hope I can get it to resolve soon. I have too much to do both inside the house and with work.

In better news, did make the soup yesterday and it does taste similar to the one I paid too much for. The broth is a bit dark in color since the pregrilled chicken from TJs was pretty blackened. Also, I wish I'd have bought another bag of the frozen grilled corn since I didn't realize that the bag I had only had a little left in it and I don't have any other corn. Still, at least it's good and with the contents, I'm getting about three servings for nearly the price of the one serving from the farmers market. I also found a big local beefsteak tomato at TJs and I did make the tomato sandwich. It was delicious. Even with adding a slice to my breakfast burrito this morning, I have enough for another later today.

WTF body?

I haven't the slightest clue what happened but the back is being unpredictable and now BOTH knees are being wobbly and weird. The right knee - my "good" one - as good as you can get with mild (so far) tricompartmental arthritis -even being taped up is having instances where I step and have a shock of wondering whether it intends to hold me up.

I swear at some point I'll just be held together solely by annoyed determination and KT Tape. I should buy stock in the stuff.

My intention had been to go to Trader Joe's and then roll by and get a drive up order from Target for the things that TJs doesn't sell. Since I knew I could barely handle TJs, the Target order is still sitting in the cart. I guess I'll have to change that to a Shipt delivery order (my plan doesn't expire until early 2024) and hope I get a delivery person that doesn't suck. We'll see. I didn't get a lot of food this morning due to having to use my cane and get it up the stairs but I got enough fresh and frozen stuff to get through several days, including what I need to make that soup.

I'll have FreshDirect bring a few things mid-week so maybe I'll take the foodstuffs off the Target order and pay a dollar or two more for FD to bring it. There was a really good deal where you got a $15 gift card if you spent $50 at Target on home supplies and I had enough to justify it but that deal expires today. Bah. Well maybe I'll scale that back and get just enough home stuff and get it shipped to me.

JuneBug is whining for treats so I'll have to hobble up for a bit
