A couple of recent major accomplishments - I put on my socks and laced dress shoes all by myself for last Saturday's gig! I have been wearing black socks and black leather sandals for gigs since the accident. I could get away with it paired with my leg brace, but without the brace I'm sure people were like, WTF? My feet really felt it, though. Funny how your feet change when unrestricted from normal footwear. And yesterday I took the steps to my apartment like normal person, alternate legs every for every other step! I had been having to just do one step at a time (both legs meeting on every stair) since June. I felt like such a big boy. I now posses the ability of most toddlers. Look out, world!

Good to hear you are progressing, keep up the good work!

Have to road trip to take an Amazon return to town. The drop box is near Lowes, so I might as well get the stuff for the garden and some new emitters for the roses. They aren't getting enough water. The fish store happens to be on the way home also. Found out the Buenos Aries tetra's I bought need to be in a school in order to keep them happy, so I'll pick up a few more of them, and whatever else strikes my fancy.

Great movie. Yes, still doing PT, thanks for asking. I expect to be doing it well into the new year to get back to 100%. They warned me it would be at least 4-6 months. That's fine, at least it's not cancer (my new mantra)...
Hopefully your therapist is hawt! Lost half the summer but at least you'll be back on your scooter by spring.

Lol. She is tiny, strong and shapely, though I've never seen her full face (masks). She massages my knee for about 20 mins each time, it is the most action I've had since June. I'm surprised I don't catch wood ;) Yep, I'll be back next Spring, she's gonna put me on the stationary bike tomorrow. Not sure how that's gonna go, but I trust her...

Amazon return dropped off, AND avoided someone trying to run me over in the crosswalk. :finger: A flat hand makes a lot of noise on a car roof. Picked up some more Buenos Aries tetra's, a pair of silver lyretail mollies (Had to teach the girl how to spot a fish penis: gonopodium), and a Cobra Guppy for old times sake. They don't have the big tails like they used to. Peat moss and chicken manure moved up into the garden area for someone :roll: to spread it out and till it in soon so I can get the garlic in the ground. Beer 30 in a couple.
