A lot can happen in 24 hours
It has been an action filled 24 hours.
24 hours ago, I was just finishing doing my early morning lunges. Eeh. My muscles in my legs are making me achingly aware of their existence. I have tried to walk as normally as I can, but everyone at College was aware of my pain, despite my efforts. It's the sitting and getting up from sitting that is the worst.
I took the plasters off my cut yesterday. The general consensus has been, "Oh, that was deep." Hello! I've been saying that since I did it. It makes me wonder what it is about me that people don't believe when I say things. They have to see to believe. Sigh.
Then I went to the dentist. But at least my root canal is finally finished, albeit I am $480 poorer. (It's on my credit card, so donations would be appreciated.) I had a potentially embarrassing situation at the dentist when about 15-20 mins into it, the large amounts of water I had consumed throughout the day was ready for an escape. I had about another 45 mins of sitting in the dentist chair, praying that my bladder would be strong enough to hold it in. It was. Just. I got out of that chair and ran (well, waddled is probably more apt a description) to the receptionist who pointed the heavenly lavatory. Close call!
I got home and stopped in the drive for a quick chat to James who was leaving, and was instead ambushed by Kendal, Christina, Hannah and Naomi, who all made their way into my car. Then Reuben, Simeon, Cody and Patrick joined in. Thank goodness I have a wagon! Eventually the volume inside the car increased to the point it irritated me, so everyone was forced out. Then it happened.
While teaching Hannah to drive, she bunny-hopped (in my car) into the bushes around the flagpole area. Fortunately seatbelts were on, and as I realised what was happening, I grabbed the hand brake, so we didn't go as far in as we could have. Hannah got out and I reversed up, and suddenly the kids reappeared yelling, "Hannah crashed Corryn's car!!" I taught them the difference between a bunny hop and a crash and sent them home before they saw some scratches that weren't previously there. I've done worse myself, so I could see the funny side, but Hannah felt pretty bad, I think.

Then this morning my alarm went off at 5:45am. I thought about how nice my bed was, how sore my legs were, and whether or not Si would notice if I didn't show up. But I thought to myself how nice Si was being volunteering to get me into shape, and I didn't want to be the one letting down the deal. But it took a little longer to get ready - I couldn't quite bend down enough to reach my shoes! Anywho, he was easier on me today, which I fully appreciated, and I am starting to get movement in my legs again. Maybe by Monday I will be able to walk normally!!
