In the throes of moving

I haven't been at the computer much over the last week because I've been busy selling my furniture, packing boxes, and preparing to move across the country!

Last Friday I had another physical therapy appointment. I'd been doing well and not having pain. The physical therapist had me do about 10 minutes on the recumbent bike and told me I can start doing that in addition to swimming. She also gave me another set of strength training exercises to do (essentially one-legged squats). And, she told me to wean off the boot over the weekend, so that by Monday I'd be completely done with it!

When I woke up on Saturday morning, my ankle was hurting a little. I'm not sure why, since I hadn't started ditching the boot yet. Maybe it was the biking, or maybe I had just spent too much time on my feet the day before. It has kept hurting on and off since then. I haven't done any more biking, just to be safe. I really hope the soreness goes away soon! I had been doing so well and been basically pain-free for awhile until Saturday.
