13 has always been my lucky number. Not so much for one of my neighbours. I went to leave for I Ho Chaun class Friday night and noticed a whole bunch of smoke coming out of the hood of one of the cars in my lot. I knew who owned the car but didn't know where he lived. Long story short, I ran around my neighbourhood to see if I could find him, called the fire department, got blocked in by a fire truck. Turned out it ended up being some sort of hose that got a hole in it which was causing the smoke and my poor neighbour came out to 5 firemen surrounding his car. He was really stressed out because he was on his way to the west end to pick up his daughter so I told him I'd drive him to get her and to try to find the part he needed for his car. I wasn't going to make it to class now anyway. It ended up making for an interesting evening and I ended up meeting a few of the people who live by me.
I'm behind on my core requirements but have been making progress on my personal ones. Still waiting patiently for my doctor's appointment. MARCH 24TH!!!! Had my knee lock on me during last weeks class, saw a physio therapist and found out it was swollen and I twisted my meniscus probably when I fell down my front steps the day before the banquet that I ended up not being able to go to. I swear I don't like hurting myself I've just always been accident prone.
Definitely hard to stay engaged when you haven't been able to go to classes. I'm still staying positive though. Things don't last forever, bad or good. Plus, overall I'm still able to get more done in a day than I used to, so that's improvement.
We need to talk. A locked knee is almost always a consequence of torn cartilage. Cartilage has not blood supply so it does not heal.
