Coming off the DL...Day 123, Mon June 5, 2006
Went to work, worked, then drove home, fed the horses, and folded some laundry.
Went downstairs, put on the 1st episode of Season 2 of Buffy, and did cardio. Went easy...just walked at 3.5 mph for 45 minutes. So, I burned a measly 174 calories, but hey, it's something! It's a start. I'll give it until the weekend before getting back to running. I have Physical Therapy on Wed and Fri, so my PT will be able to tell me what I can safely do without reinjuring myself.
Tomorrow I head to the Equine Rehab center in Holyoke. It's a rehab for developmentally disabled clients. Basically, they need volunteers to lead horses around while kids ride and try to develop balance, motor skills, confidence, etc. It'll be a nice change from what I've been doing for the last couple of years. And its nice to give back to the community. At least for a while. So, it's just a 2-hour stint, but I wanted to check it out. I'll give it a few weeks, see if it's something I want to continue with.
Ok, time to get back to work. I need to clear out all the pending stuff I have to do so that I can have my morning free tomorrow.
