It was a non-stop weekend and I definitely didn’t feel like going to the gym after work today. Fortunately, yesterday gave me something to draw from.
A kayaking friend of mine has suffered back problems over the years, with multiple operations. I hope you’ve never had these tribulations and will have to take my word for it that they can bring tears to your eyes. Just a hiccup can be a passport into a world of pain.
She’s recovering from her most recent procedure and we paddled yesterday. I half expected her to be in a beamy recreational boat but she brought her full-out sea kayak. A demanding craft, it’s a just a little wider than the computer monitor I’m looking at and, in a week or two, she’ll be jockeying it through the waves of Lake Erie which could be taller than her.
If she can horse around a skinny boat through that, I could drag my tired carcass to the gym. Thanks for the inspiration.
