PT was more or less what I expected. I explained to the therapist that I'm feeling well enough, but I just want to be extra careful because I've seen so many horrible things happen with spine injuries in my job. So I'm taking it slow and listening to professionals and doing all the therapy and whatnot. He asked me a bunch of questions and just kept repeating how lucky I was to be feeling as well as I am. Even though I'm feeling like I could handle going back to my regular workouts, he told me to give it a month from the time of the accident. Soft tissue takes 4-6 weeks to heal, and even if it doesn't hurt much right now, if I strain it, I'll just make it worse and hinder/prolong/derail the healing process. So no body pump for me until October, I guess. I can run, though. Yay?

I did some grocery shopping and some chores around the house, and now I'm thinking it's just about nap o'clock. Later tonight I think I'll go for a long walk around Aloha. I'm not feeling like going to the gym if I can't do my class, but I should do some moving. And it'll be a better temperature later. For now, snoozes...
