on the downside, my ankle is extremely cross with me

[kaberett]

On the upside, I know roughly why (I managed to turn it at the plot yesterday -- I thought it was No Big Deal but it is very cross about weight-bearing and flexing today; no bruising) and I have a preexisting podiatry appointment tomorrow. I am contemplating showing up with a wheelchair. (I attended my last appointment on foot. I think it would be funny.)

(Best guess is "sucks to be hypermobile" and Something Not Quite Right. The thing I am actually seeing the podiatrist for has I think actually improved -- with only limited thanks to said professional, see gluteus medius passim -- but alas I will be wholly unable to demonstrate that tomorrow unless a lot changes overnight. Maybe they will have useful input! We will see.)

Also on the upside! Celery is coming up; PAK CHOI I HAD GIVEN UP ON IS COMING UP (not much of it, but some; next stop: sow the rest of the packet and hope I get enough plants for sufficient genetic diversity to seed-save from???); despite the ankle the weather was good and I dragged A out on a tour of local plants (the magnolias are magnificent); the weather was also good enough this afternoon for me to happily spend an hour or so on the patio pricking out seedlings. With a sunhat, even! I am still short successful germination of one (1) tomato; I do not appear to have managed to get a third sowing going today, but oh well. Having got a bunch of basil set up to hopefully get rapidly bigger will have to do.

Boo for the sprained ankle, I've had my inevitable bendy share over the years. Hope it resolves quickly.

I did once turn up in my chair for a shoulder physio appointment, which rather flummoxed the physio.

Celery! So yummy.
