Another day of nothing

:(

This was all too familiar. Just last November I spent a similar weekend sitting around the house trying to do chores and lamenting my injuries. That time it was the shoulder that caused me to miss the OT100 weekend.

I was up early and anxious, so I started my weekly cookup. I was slow but didn't drop or break anything! Slowly walked the dog (she did good, doesn't pull too much). Took the garbage out and saw that my license plates were stolen!! And evaluated the pains.

Left upper arm hurts from impact. Left hip hurts when I wake up but gets better as I move. The ribs under my left boob are where the damage is, along the sternum and another point closer to under my arm. My guess is that my left elbow hit? I don't have bruises, swelling, or other surface marks of the injury.

Hurts to breath, bend, twist, pick something up, hold something against my chest. Reclining and rolling over the most painful.

No pain meds, don't need them. Working to make sure I keep good posture and take deep breaths.

I really wanted to run today! Tried doing a pushup but failed to even get weight on my arm under me!
