The Yearly Physical
I had my yearly physical today and as is always the case, there's good news and bad news. I will give you the bad news first.
Bad news: I was not able to return home and quit my job, then plan to spend the short-term future burning through my retirement account doing bucket list items.
Good news: I am apparently in excellent health.
This time of year always makes me a little nervous. It's a weird human tendency towards ignorance & bliss. But I'm also a firm believer in science, and statistics. So I get routine checkups, and vaccines, and I listen to the doctor's advice. This year I got a tetanus booster plus some old man's shot for pneumococcal pneumonia. Again, because science. My left arm is a little sore now.
We discussed the knee, and she agrees that this is almost surely due to being a single sport person for so long. We discussed my approach and she is 100% behind it. As I mentioned to her, the heart issue from 3 years ago is gone, 2 of my problems from last year are gone, and I'm working through this latest knee issue. I'm making progress on all of them and I am opting for the non-invasive approach. We're in alignment with PT & weight training followed by cardio on top of that. We both agreed crossfit is for social misfits, however. XOXO
Ok maybe she never said that. In any event, I feel great starting the year.
I have no picture today so I'll take something from the last actual travel blog. The dog.
