I fell last night banging up my knees pretty badly on a step. Though I could hardly walk last night that they swelled so much, I am thankful today that there was not more damage this morning. I am grateful that the ice last night helped, that the swelling is gone, that they are only stiff and sore but functional, and that they are just black and blue with the cuts.
