Christmas was nice.  this slow recovery crap is really getting to me.  I'm doing little bits here and there.  A little yoga, a little treadmill walking.  I even biked a little yesterday (I'm not supposed to bike).  I'm in need of a basic steady plan, but I have to tweak it depending on how the back feels :p  I like things to be the same everyday.  I don't do well with all of this "flexibility" ... "listen to your body" CRAP!  I need routine.  I need to be able to vacuum with out ending up flat on the floor for an hour while the spasms subside.  AND to top it all off, is scares the CRAP out of me to even think about running outside.  sorry for the whine.  This is my whine spot.  I have to put on a chipper face everywhere else.  My Polly Anna has been hijacked and it looks like the hijackers are slowly suffocating her.  I suppose the worst part is that I feel like I can't DO anything.  I just have to wait and let my back heal.  AND, without running, how can I know if the knee that was hit by the cars bumper is injured?

Things I can control.......

what I eat.  No more eating like a lumber jack.  I may not be as active as I'd like, but I can STOP eating enough to support a small nation.

I can do yoga everyday.  It may be VERY modified, but I can do some. 

18 min stationary bike, 18 min treadmill walk, 45 min yoga

OK- so my back is achy, but not form altering ;)  I do have to lay flat on the floor for a while after each exercise.  My back is just WEIRD!  I see Brady tomorrow.  He says that we are starting official rehab tomorrow.  I am going to do these three things everyday this week.  If all goes well, I'll add some running in next week.  I shall consult with the doc first.  He says I am clear to run right now, but I have to listen to my body.  My body keeps acting like it wants to throw a fit, so I have skipped it.  I've had so many setbacks that I am a HUGE CHICKEN!  I am not used to being such a pansy.  I need my fiercness to come back.
