Stood for most of a 9-hour shift today, and by the time I got home my ankles had that tight, puffy feeling again – not new, just more than usual.
What I kept:
– the short walk after dinner, even though it was only around the block
– sitting down at the piano for 20 minutes, first time since last week
What I didn’t:
– the ankle stretches I’m supposed to do before bed
– reading, the book’s still sitting on the nightstand untouched
The playing wasn’t great, lot of fumbling through the same 4 bars, but it was nice to just sit there and not think about work for once. Jaw’s still tight though, probably from clenching through a long shift.
Taking the small win on the piano part 🎹
