Adhesions and nerve growth and massage, oh my!

Yesterday was my first physical therapy appointment for my foot pain. Last time I went to the doctor it was rediagnosed as neuromas: abnormal growths of nerve tissue. Nerve tumors, basically. Benign but sometimes causing pain. I can feel them with my thumb. Big and lumpy and wrong-feeling.

Physical therapist decided metatarsals 2-4 too stiff, so he bent and flexed each foot for 10 minutes or so. Boy are they sore today. Expected. Annoying.

Last night, got a shoulder massage. Professional. One hour just on shoulders. BAD knots and adhesions in there. Today I feel bruised and swollen all over my upper back. VERY swollen. Achy: wearing a purse hurts. Expected. Annoying.

Milestones

rfrench soloed his first flight student today. He called me from the ramp, saying "That's his engine you hear in the background. I'm not in the plane."

I bet the first time an instructor ever does that, it's scarier for the instructor than it is for the student.

There's no LJ mood thingy for "proud".

Fabric

Rob, don't read this.

Free Scrap Fabric in SF
Large box of pre-cut FABRIC squares & a Lancome makeup bag in Castro Valley

I would snap these up if they were closer to me.

Maybe it's a good thing they're not.
