The chiro said yesterday my legs were doing well and load balancing properly.  He did say to take the calf raises out of PT because there's just no need because my calves are plenty strong.  I was lucky enough that my massage lady had a cancellation today so I go in at 10:30 for her to dig into my angry muscles.  The hour will fly by because we always chat the whole time.  I was hoping to get in 90 minutes but since I had to go through the front desk for this one I couldn't sneak it in.  Next time.  No real plans for the weekend.

What are you guys up to?
