Getting Out and Getting Cultured

I just realized it's almost midnight and I've told you nothing about my day. I really do love being busy.

My morning PT session made some inroads on muscles that are still very tight, some of which always have been. As much as strengthening those muscles connected directly to my hip, my therapist is working hard on fixing or at least greatly improving my gait. It's a very interesting process. And I have homework to do, more and more each time. But the end result is a feeling of relief as normal movements become just that.

From there my good friend LR picked me up and we went to the free concert, which turned out to be quite enjoyable. We parked right next to the church and went in a side entrance with no stairs. We sat about 15 feet from the 3 performers: clarinet, viola, piano. They played a varied program that ranged from Mozart to Bruch with a more modern composer in between. It was a beautiful setting for chamber music.

Tonight we went to an Arena Stage performance of Edward Albee's "A Delicate Balance", not exactly an uplifting play, but quite well done. Before the play we ate out, my first meal in a restaurant since my accident.

It was nice to concentrate on music and theater and being with good friends, as opposed to the mundane issues of navigating my house!

I didn't manage to get my walk in today, but tomorrow I'm going for 5 houses.
