Wow it's nice to be independent again. I can get around the house, do chores, and (best of all) DRIVE again. The "boot" took a little getting used to, but I'm negotiating it pretty well and starting to get back to a more normal life.
Got to the gym on Saturday for the first time in over a month. It's Monday now and (of course) I'm sore as all hell - but it's a "good" sore and I'm happy to be feeling the pain. I took it easy for my first time back - only spent about 20 minutes and concentrated mostly on core work and a little upper body toning. "Taking it easy" isn't my strong suit, but I need to school myself for patience and take this one step at a time.
I've pretty much accepted that going to the Gay Games next summer is probably off the table at this point - I can't imagine I'm going to be even remotely ready with all the time I've lost. Sigh - means a four year wait for the next round. I'm not happy about that, but there's not much I can really do, except keep training, and probably do some competitions on the adult circuit. It just means I will go to the Games in 4 years much better prepared to be proud of my performance.
