Working from Home

A few days ago, my knee has started HURTING A LOT MORE. I mean A LOT. Granted, the painful episodes may come and go somewhat, but it's gotten a lot worse.

Yesterday, at work, there was a time when I could hardly walk on it at all. So I talked with my manager and with her help, I got permission from the department director and the company HR department to work from home. I still need to go into the office at least one day a week, until my surgery, but that shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Also, last night, at Grandma's suggestion, I went to WalMart and bought a cane. It's one of those with 4 feet for added stability - it also stands up by itself so I don't have to find something to lean it up against.

Only 4 more weeks until my scheduled surgery...
