I am doing much better today. I walked quite a bit around the apartment without my crutches, although I still used the walker to transport my tea etc. to the other room. I can see the bruises down the front of my left leg now. I couldn't see them yesterday for some reason. Now I know why the back of that area was hurting so much. Not sure how I fell if I'm all bruised like that. I know I hit my knee real hard but inside is where all the hurting was behind the knee and leg. In fact, I'm looking at my leg right now because I feel a sore spot on the muscle behind the leg and there's a bruise there also that I missed. But it's on the mend fast, thank God!
I plan on going out tomorrow to get groceries and supplies because it's supposed to snow here on Wednesday and through the rest of the week so I have to go tomorrow. I will be real careful. If that leg starts hurting I will sit and rest for a few seconds..
This is how my leg looks. I didn't see this new bruise to take a picture of that as well. But you can see what I mean. Those bruises down the front are right on the bone but they didn't hurt as much as in the back. The bruise I just found is right behind those, on the muscle. But I'm so thankful I didn't break anything and that I'm healing fast. The other photos are the bruise on the inside of my right knee.

Ouch! That does look nasty but I'm glad it is improving slowly and hope you manage to get those groceries in before the weather turns bad. You be careful when you do go out, you don't need any more mishaps!
You are always in my thoughts Ginny, thank you for your kind words on the earlier comment. Stay safe, hugs, Jan.
