Since getting home late Monday afternoon, I've been catching up on some work and re-dedicating myself to healing the source of my nagging discomfort. I'm making time for rehab exercises just about every day, and I'm also back to doing core exercises on the stability ball several times a week. I went to the massage therapist Wednesday, at which time the pain along my spine up near my neck was particularly acute, and he worked hard on muscles all around that area that he said are related to this discomfort. I can't say I have much more than a general understanding of the things he's telling me, but it seems I've got a lot of muscle fibers that are stuck together and, as he puts it, he wants to "rip 'em apart."
Anyway... I'm hoping to spend the next month doing everything I can to get my body right again. Meanwhile, the Pink Palace Crafts Fair is next weekend, and work is finally about to begin on the storefront of my building, so I'll have plenty of professional activities to keep me busy. I'll likely be out of the boat for most of this time, but I hope to make some gains in general fitness.
