I had good intentions of getting up to exercise today even though it's a Thursday, my usual day to sleep in. When the alarm went off, I was ready to get up and go, but when I did my normal stretches in bed before rising, my legs were still sore from last night's hike. I had struggled a bit because I wasn't feeling 100% for that hike. I decided the day off from morning exercise was needed after all to rest the leg muscles. The last thing I want is an injury from overuse that makes me take more time off. If I feel better and have some time this evening, I can always do something smaller. We are considering an extra hike Friday evening to take advantage of the continuing awesome weather of the past two weeks. I guess I'll be okay skipping a workout as long as it's for a good reason.
Had to pick up a client at 7:30 am to go to a psychiatrist appointment in Marshfield. She wanted to be admitted to the psych ward there, and when the doctor didn't suggest it during her appointment, she fell apart after he left the room. We had to wait around til about noon to see him again after he finished his other morning patients. He agreed to admit her then, and I didn't make it back to town til my 2:00 pm appointment who I meet at Dairy Queen. Thank heaven they have food there!
Saw Grandma in the hospital today - she looks better. She will probably be there a couple more days as they run tests on her throat.
