Summer injuries

Well, it was all working out and then, like last year, something bad happened in July and I was forced to take a break from my gym time and fun swimming. Last year, I had to have a small operation on my toe and this year I had a collision on my road bike. After 8 weeks or so, I'm heading to an evaluative orthopedist next week to see what really happened. Icing after 8 weeks has gotten really old.

...Instead, let's talk about knitting. I've been doing lots since I've been somewhat out of commission. A nice shawl was started and finished this summer.


I finally finished my own log cabin blanket,


Now, I'm nearing completion on a sweater for archival clothing. Pictures to come soon.

For exercise - I might need to even stop my arm weights and floor work until I get back my ankle and hip strength. Today is the pool - a place that normally brings me joy and relaxation, that has caused me pain that last several times I've dove in.
