Achy and damp, but exercised

By the time I got downtown this morning, it was raining hard; I waited under cover for a few minutes, but not long enough, and the backs of my pants got wet as I walked to the bank (to cash a check) and then on for a cup of tea before my workout. By then my right shoulder was bothering me enough that I took some ibuprofen, and did a workout that was all lower body and core.

( the specifics )

I put my damp pants back on, and went out into the rain. By the time I got indoors again (for some soup) the fronts of the pants were also wet. Nonetheless, hot soup helps many things. From there, I went to the Mid-Manhattan Library and picked up a book, and came home. By then my back was hurting (between the shoulder blades), possibly from the amount I was carrying. I am now trying a muscle relaxant/aspirin combo pill, but the back pain is distracting me from anything more complicated than writing this, and was bad enough earlier that I stopped partway through a set of my shoulder stretches. I really hope I'm feeling well enough for at least some of the usual upper-body exercise by Wednesday.

I have an appointment with the screen people to bring our repaired screens back tomorrow, hopefully in the morning. This fits nicely with my existing plan to stay home and take it easy physically.
