Recovery

Last night was a bit nuts, open vodka bars are v. dangerous. But I must say that between the vodka and the lidocaine patch on my right hip I seemed to hold up relatively well. I definitely should not make a habit of wearing those almost 3" heel boots though. I am paying for it today. The front of my hips are sooo sore, as well as my right knee. I have PT tomorrow, I missed yesterday for the fundraiser do, so hopefully I will fell better. I have to admit though I feel frustrated and like I've hit a wall. I can't increase the weights because it irritates everything else, so the strength is slow in returning. Also think I've been doing too much running around and as much as I enjoy it, I must stop it as it's still too soon to do too much. At least that's how it feels.

Oh, and my tooth/jaw/whatever part of my mouth, hasn't stopped hurting since it started a couple of weeks ago, but I am loathe to go see a dentist after last time. I keep hoping it will just go away on it's own.

Even though the weather is crap and I feel like crap I am going to make a concerted effort to get to the gym after work. At least in the pool I feel somewhat normal and it's good to do some exercise finally! I'm trying to go at least two times a week, but aiming for three. It all depends on my schedule.
