ROZZIE G WEEK eleven

4/19 Oh my god! i went to the doctor about my knees. I have arthritis in both knees. I knew that. Told them not interested in surgery. They offered a cortisone shot for both knees to help with the inflammation and pain. If you have ever had a cortisone shot, you will understand why i only took one in the most painful knee. Once they put the needle in , it felt like everything in my knee just locked up in a hard ball! Can I say pain! Hell to the naw to a shot in both knees! They say its worse till it gets better and it was. I wasn't limping when I went in but I was when I left! Needless to say no class tonight!

4/20 Knees not quite there yet. I thought about kettlebell class but I figured my knees wouldn't take it. I decided to go to pool.

4/21 Inspired by Stephanie's strong arms, I went to gym and did upper body work. I figured I would give my knees a break and work on my arms.
