- Time of past OR future Camino
- 2017
So, yes, I am not supposed to be here right now...too much soil, rock, and timber to move...
But, as a card-carrying "elder"...and a really stubborn one...I am sidelined for the rest of the day by aches-and-pains from my chores. After a hot shower and downing of some Arnica montana, it seems likely that I can be back in harness tomorrow albeit tasks will be done s-l-o-w-l-y.
In the past I have found icing to be useful for pain reduction, sometimes. Just now, I get a reference from a semi-pro athlete about a new-ish (from ~ 2014!!!) book that has called into question the whole concept of "RICE" being bogus!
One of the Forewords is actually written by the inventor of the "RICE" regimen, Dr. Gabe Mirkin, MD where he repents of this idea...pretty strongly.
Anyway, don't "shoot the messenger"! Well, you can try, but I will be out in the sunshine tomorrow and the next weeks attempting to hurt myself in new and interesting ways....
Buen Camino!

{EDIT: "Forewords" above. Must have been the influence of the dram of Jameson's that I forgot to mention with respect to pain relief. Hey, my last name starts with "O'C" and it is St. Patrick's Day...and I have climbed "Croagh Patrick"...}
