small update and randomness

i always find it amazing how much i undervalue the ability to spend time at home until i'm gone from it for an extended period of time. i just got back from a week and a half in albany and i'm leaving tomorrow for napa. a few days isn't a big deal but a week and a half puts the idea of home at a higher level of comfort than i'd previously realized. also considering that i'll get a grand total of one night's sleep in my own bed puts things into an even harsher reality of how much i'm going to miss my blissful little apartment. don't get me wrong, spending time with sarah in napa is going to be exactly what the therapist i don't have would order and i'm really looking forward to it. i just wish i'd had a little more down time from albany to get ready for napa especially considering i don't even have my luggage back yet!

so, i'm still not working out at all and i'm still getting pain from my knee on a constant basis which does worry me and i'm considering calling the doc to find out what i should be doing next. don't know if mild excercise at this point would make it better or worse. considering that standing for two days killed me (taught a class and had to stand during the whole two days), i'm not sure that even swimming nor a light spin would be a good idea. then again, non-activity is driving me bonkers!! going to give it til i get back from napa and then actually start low impact stuff and see how it goes.
