I Cut The Grass (Hip Hip, Hooray!)

Luckily, I had cut the grass shortly before I got injured, so it wasn’t as bad as it could have been.
Yesterday was the first day since I started having problems with my back that I didn’t have any pain at all. I was still moving around as though anything could send me back to that pain, so I barely did anything. This morning, before the rain started, I got out and cut the grass. I don’t think I’ve ever been so happy about getting this done before.
My back got tired, which was also a new sensation for me, but it didn’t hurt. That means (hopefully) that all is well again, so I’m going to get back into the gym tomorrow. I’ve been afraid that getting injured would provide me with an excuse for not working out, but my motivation seems to still be there, so that is also a good thing.
I’ll need to schedule my next trainer session tomorrow as well. I’m going to have to tell him to take it easy on my back because if I get injured again I may end up missing my hiking trip, which would not do at all. I’m getting very excited for the trip coming up at the end of this month.
Not much else to tell today. I’ll be back tomorrow to report on my trip back to the gym.
