Should I go to the pool?

I don't think I have any students until 2:30 PM (14:50) today. That means I have some time to kill. I have been trying to walk short distances without a crutch. It hurts, but I can do it. Maybe I'll visit the pool and do some "physical therapy." It's warm but not hot out right now. How is your Thursday shaping up?

It is ready to storm but nothing is happening. The barometric pressure is making us have headaches. Do you go in the pool or just try to walk there?

I stumble to the pool, read (still on my Hillerman novel; I'm a slow reader) and then slide in via the "old paople" stairs. I thin swim gently from side to side.

@TheHorse That sounds refreshing and it is a little bit of exercise.

Glad when you get relief from your knee. Warm here, and some clouds nice. How's Kitty.

@much2say My knee held up today. I am in pain, but I am done for the evening and can do as much Scotch and Advil as I want.

If you have the time, do it. It'll do your body good. Hell with this heat, I want to drag George kicking and screaming.

Go to the pool. It seems like the best option.

I had a full day. I would go to the pool if I had a chance.

It is in the 90s all I can do is stay by the AC and fan. If I had a pool to use I would be floating in it most of the day. I know the beach is not far with the cold Atlantic Ocean but I would melt before I reached it,

It's a good idea to hop in the pool. It has to be good for your knee.

Should you be walking on that knee without a crutch? I hope you feel better soon. Have a good day. Hubby is in the hospital again with AFIB. I am still hoping he will be home on Sunday.

I thought I remembered you saying you probably would be having surgery on your knee? Be careful, don't make it worse!
