Torture!!!

1st - 3 hours of CPR training.  9am - noon
2nd - 1 hour of Physical therapy.  5pm - 6pm

= TORTURE

I can't believe how much pain my arm was in today.  Believe it or not, but CPR training is exhausting. Doing 30 chest compressions on a dummy multiple times was incredibly tiring.  Thank goodness I had a few hours to rest.  But seriously, I'm starting to not look forward to physical therapy.  I assume it's because I'm lazy.  I'm not one that enjoys exercising.  Andrew has helped and I can see improvement with my arm but sheez...it really does feel like torture.  I like the massage and I've decided when therapy is over, I'm going to treat myself to a real massage therapist and it will be the most relaxing treatment I've had in years.  I feel like I need to have ocean water or some sort of birds chirping in the background with my eyes closed.  Not wide open with bright lights and a guy over me digging for gold in my arm pit.  

I really need to get my arm back in proper working order so I hope I continue with this and work through the exhaustion.
