Ping!

I played half a match yesterday with my foot all strapped (yes, only half a match, since I'm one of the usual 'reserves' ie. benchies) but very shortly before the end I felt my foot 'snap'. So now it's particularly sore and I'm definitely a bit of a grump. My physio said I could play, so I did, but now I wish he'd said I shouldn't! I was kind of waiting for him to say, "it's best if you don't play..." but he didn't. "Carry on as normal" was his advice. Well, I have an appointment with him on Monday... maybe it's not what he initially thought...we'll see. In the meantime I'm icing my foot and walking funny.

Plantar Fasciitis

My heel hurts after my netball practice last night. There is a specific spot... And massaging it last night didn't seem to work. Getting out of bed this morning was enough to get me on the phone to a physiotherapist who after having seen me, confirms I have Plantar Fasciitis. He said not to freak out when I google it later! It's strapped now and feels better, but generally these types of injuries feel better as the day goes on and then are very painful after a night's rest. I'm to continue as normal with the strapping on (even have the go ahead for the netball match tomorrow?!) and will see him again on Monday. New shoes are on the horizon...

This morning's entertainment.

School holidays are fun: time to snuggle in bed on these cold, winter mornings and no rush to get dressed, fed, medicated, brushed and out the door!

Here is Joshka performing his "One Man Band" show. It's real time (haven't played with the speed at all!).

VERY entertaining!
