Burnin' Up The Pavement

Actually...more like driving like a grandmother. I drove to work today!!! This was one of my first short term rehab goals and I was able to make it happen!! And yes, I'm rockin' the temporary handicap placard. Which is particularly awesome because the parking situation at work is...somewhat less than awesome. As in, there are something like 5 spaces for the whole building. Now I can use one of the two conveniently located handicap spots right by the front door. And even though I'm not technically supposed to, I'm leaving the placard dangling from my rear view while I drive as a courtesy to other drivers. It means "Please go around," or something slightly less polite than that.

This is all because the knee is feeling better after a weekend of basically just sitting on my ass, icing and elevating. Even the bike trainer sessions are getting a little easier. I'm up to 18 minutes now. 20 minutes, here I come.
