this morning when i woke up i had an experience i wouldn’t wish on anyone else on this planet: my entire right leg from the knee down cramped up. first it was just the calf and the toes. that i’m used to because i get them nearly every morning now.

but then, the shin seized up! i didn’t even realize there was a muscle there! what could i do? if you think about it, whatever would relieve the calf muscle was going to make the shin muscle cramp more, and vice versa.

at this point, though, i’m so used to leg cramps that i just walked around until i couldn’t feel it anymore. luke rubbed my leg, too. that helped!

on a happier note, i think i’m on happy hormones. i’ve been really happy for the last week or so now. i don’t know if it is just having spent the weekend with my family after a long period of time when we haven’t all been together in one place, or if it’s my hormones. but happy is definitely how i’d describe myself lately!
