TAKING IT EASY

Yesterday, I started my day with the incorrect conclusion that my groin pull had more or less cleared up. I was with a customer in the morning, and all of a sudden the pain returned, a pain which I had previously only felt during workouts. My customer, was kind enough to offer me ibuprofen which I had forgotten to take with me. Whether the ibuprofen helped chemically or as a placebo - the pain dissipated during the drive to my second appointment. I went to sleep very early last night just to get complete rest. I have been applying a cold ice pack to my inner thigh with the thought that this might speed up recovery time. I am sure I will take it easy today and likely on Friday too. Then I will gingerly see if I am ready to consider increasing my activity over the weekend.

I think this 'emoji' captures perfectly how I felt when the pain cranked up during my first appointment yesterday.

BITMOJI

I guess I am becoming a modern man. I have started to occasionally experiment with adding an emoji (or two) to emails and texts. Since I have started using emoji's, I just discovered an application that help you design your own avatar (which one designs to look as one likes) The application is called BITMOJI. It is a free app available on itunes (and android) and once you create your own personal avatar, there are scores and scores of personalized emojis that one can use in an email or text message. This is how I have been feeling lately.

This captures the way I have been feeling recently.
