Viva Las Vegas?

Ugh. My first full day home. 

My Vegas trip that was suppose to be all fun, wasn't.

I don't know what it was, if anything, but something I had to eat maybe on Wed didn't sit well with me the rest of my time there. In fact, I'm still suffering whatever it was/is.     To give you a small hint of how bad it is, NO amount of Imodium worked.  Normally I'm a half pill of Imodium type of person.   I was full pill twice within a few hours and it didn't help.

Throw in my spectacular fall in the bathroom, I was not feeling well at all Thurs, Friday, & Saturday. Today, I'm getting better but still not 100%. 

I slipped on the wet floor in the bathroom near the toilet. I came down very hard against the lid & wall and right on my bad left knee.  I have some pretty nasty bruises to show for it.  My first COHERENT thought was "oh dear lord, not the knee. I need to be able to walk".   

Thursday, after it happened, I was in such pain in the knee (which was bruised and swollen), heel, arm, and back (from where I twisted when I fell).  I am sporting some yucky looking bruises and I ache.  The tummy is still acting up....and the sleep I didn't get Friday night made for the longest travel day ever. EVERYTHING bothered me. Then the plane was warm & it was just a recipe for disaster.

Out of curiosity, I jumped on the scale this morning. It's....let's just hope it's not a proper reading.   I weighed myself Wed morning before I left.   The scale indicates I gained 11 lbs.   I don't think so!  While I was not an angel on this trip with the food, I was NOT all bad.  I made sure I got out and walked the strip every day, plus the 2 shows I attended.....no I don't think I gained that much. 

If 5 of it is the water weight, I understand.   I don't think I gained 6 lbs.  I'm just hoping this is a result of the gastric intestinal issues I'm suffering from.

Check back later this week to see how I'm recovering.

The nasty injury. Another view

Why else would I go to Vegas?
