Kathy...you're really starting to piss me off. There's nothing wrong with my back, or legs, or anything else. And since I put the chainsaw down in November I haven't walked more than 1km. The last 4 winters we'd walk around the farm and through the woods in boots or snowshoes; an hour each walk. This winter...its been too cold...or wet...or the snow is deep...or a bunch of lame excuses. How dare you take my excuses away! You have nerves lady! I've been busy! In March I'll be down there to see my sis and I think I'm gonna have to tell you to your face how much you disturb me!

(Keep it up :beer: )

well baron, i think i use the term "walk" a little loosely....i really feel more like i'm weaving my way down the treadmill.....everything is a little off, so i'm not sure it's really "walking" so you are safe. for a while yet. :-)
besides that's ALL i do other than laying down it seems. i'm not allowed to sit too long....or bend, or twist, or carry, or lift, or well, normal things! the thought of picking up a chainsaw right now makes me want to throw up honestly.....i just spent 20 minutes trying to get a pot out of the bottom rack of the dishwasher. of course, you are welcome to visit any time! just give me a heads up to make sure i'm here and not in physio or something dumb like that.

I'm on day #4!
Day 3 was rough but made it through. Hubby is away for work so just keeping busy! Nice weather sure helps. Crappy crappy sleeps so I'm trying to catch naps in the afternoon so that I don't wind up getting too grouchy and make a bad choice. Thanks for asking!
