State of Being:
I got to the store this morning!

Unexpected windfall. I won’t go into details here. Let me just say that I’m thankful that government jobs for some reason get the Monday after Easter Sunday off work. Given that and the fact that tomorrow is a Sunday, lots of stuff ended up getting processed through today, rather than Monday.

Food-card, however won't get refilled until Monday. So, I was only able to get about half the stuff I need for the month, but it's good enough to end the involuntary fast. I'll take it.

Worked out. Ate. Slept.

I was up all night last night, working. So, when I finally did sleep, I slept deep.

The working out today, I've gotta say... was rough. I mentioned in a previous post that I'd torqued my knee getting out of a car last week. It's still bugging me.

I say "knee," but really it's the entire leg from the knee down. It's achy in spots, throbbing in others and numb everywhere else.

Yes. I have thought about maybe putting off the walks and squats until it's feeling better. But, it's a frustrating line of thought. After all, I just got started back into working out after being sick all that time. Still, it is indeed better to be safe than it is to be sorry. So, I have stepped back the walking (pun) a little bit. I'm limping, so I only walk until it starts to hurt or go numb. Yesterday, I did three walks. My leg was very sore when I woke up. Today, I only did two. If I'm overly sore in the morning again, tomorrow then I'll just stop doing the walks, period, until my leg feels up to it. As for squats,... the knee doesn't really hurt while I'm doing them, so... I'm not sure. But, I think I'm going to err on the side of caution.

Again,... a marathon rather than a sprint.

See you tomorrow!
