My Body, My Enemy

I seem to have pulled a muscle--quite possibly the adductor magnus in my right thigh. Every time I try to lift my leg, as one needs to do in order to accomplish tasks such as walking up steps, there is a very sharp pain in the front of my hip joint. It's done this for the past two days, and I frankly cannot recall doing ANYthing that might have caused any of my muscles to have been moved, let alone pulled in such a way to create such discomfort.

Although, there WAS that time on Tuesday when I got up quickly from my desk to go to the restroom.

Well, I guess this means it's time to get myself one of those portable toilet chairs.

Or a trucker's friend.

Hope you get to feelin' better soon. We take walking for granted sometimes, but when you can't you get a much better appreciation for mobility.

I trust the rest of the Oglesby clan will rally around their "pater" and help him back to full recovery.

Well, I can't really let on too much that I'm in pain around the house. I fear the consequences if they think I have come up lame. Although I do believe I would make a nice batch of tallow.
