vacation is over

Good news! I received a pseudo-clean bill of health from my doctor Monday afternoon.

Recovery is going well. I'm healing as well as can be expected.

So my nearly month long vacation medical leave is over. I'm going back to work on Wednesday.

And if it wasn't for this blasted winter storm warning, I'd be headed to the gym. I got the green light to workout again too.

It's kinda been like going on a cruise.

You lay around doing nothing.

You eat foods high in fat.

You wonder when and where you'll dock and can get out.

Sure I was in a lot of pain for the first two weeks.

But it could have been worse.

I caught up on podcasts. I watched TV. I knit. I read books. I flipped thru magazines.

And now, vacation's over.
