Normally, I view going to the pool as a chore for me that gives the guy something to do. But it’s super hot today, and we don’t have AC. We don’t have the window unit installed because it is heavy, I don’t want to mess up my back further, and we’re moving in 1.5 weeks.
The recommendation for back recovery is to stay active rather than lying around. So, the case was solidly established for going to the pool.
It was pretty good! (Once we got there. The neighborhood pool was closed once again, and we almost got lost going to the other one.) My back felt good in there. Now I feel justified in lying down for a bit.
