Knee Pain Subsiding

I have retuned!  After a bit of freaking out about my knee, I decided to take a few days off and rest my knee to allow it to heal like it needed to.  Today was the first day without a sharp pain, so I went for a walk.  There is a slight dull pain and tightness still, but that only prevented me from pushing myself too hard.  I took it nice and easy and only did the loop to downtown, under the bridge, and back.  That is exactly 2.5 miles.  If I’m up to it, I’ll get in the last half mile later this evening.  We’ll see.

The International Bluegrass Festival was at The Cottonwood Flats over the weekend.  It made for a lot of traffic in the area, but sadly it was just far away enough that I couldn’t really hear any of the music.  I suppose next year, I could walk up there.  There have to be people hanging out in the areas nearby to enjoy some free music.  I can’t afford to actually go in!  The park was filled with RVs packing up and heading back to their lives.  It looks like it must have been a good time.

Changes happening tomorrow at my house!  I’m finally implementing my weekly schedule.  I had wanted to start 1 November, so I’m doing it a little early.  I’m sure it will be rough at first.
