a sheepish step forward 
So, I went to the gym today. I feel remarkably better than yesterday, and I even thought about riding my bike this morning. But I am the queen of overdoing it, and I really don't want to overdo it this time. Especially if it will have any effect on my knee with the goose egg.
But I went to the gym. Just getting into the gym is cause for rejoicing. Then I weighed myself and I'm 4 pounds down from my pre-fall weight; last week when I went to the doctor, my weight had jumped up 10#. So, it appears a lot of the weight gain was water, or I really just was pretty sick. Maybe both.
I did a couple reps of standing balance exercises. Yikes. No wonder I fell.
And then I did the life system circuit, doing only the arms. Them, I did at least three reps of each. I tried to go light for the first rep, and then lighter for the following reps. I'm gonna hurt tonight, but at least it will be a good hurt.
I want to see if I can squeeze in some more exercise later in the hopes that I'll sleep good tonight. I've slept so awful while I've been sick. A girl can hope.
