Webmaster SW Chicago Burbs 22805 Posts Member since: 2008/1/7 0:00	Good Morning CGs! Got home last night and the wife was fed up with the kids so they became my problem...lol. Just antsy and didn't want to listen. Took them outside for a while so wifey could make dinner. After dinner took them for a bike ride. They loved that. So I didn't get any pool time. Oh well. After that I bathed them and put them to bed. Not too bad overall, but they were wild. I was hoping my SR would come yesterday but everything was delayed with the holiday and whatnot. Tracking number says tomorrow. I'm still excited to get it. Bought a new throttle body to go with it, just don't tell the wife Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew

I was able to get a 4 hour stint in then a 2 1/2 hour then a 2 hour. PT in one hour. Tommy, with that much grass, you ought to buy yourself a swather. I hope that the weather is good for you today. Matt, I can remember days like that.

Up and going now with a full day ahead. Like those guys said Tommy you ought to windrow that grass and bale it with that much of it. We have 4 acres on our place but only about an acre that we mow and that's to much. Gotta go eat my oatmeal, have a good day Guru's!

The grass cutting is about an acre and a half. I just wanted to make it sound difficult so you guys would say WTF.

My motion is all the way up to 112*, 9 degrees better than yesterday and 8 degrees away from my goal. I am also taking a few steps without any crutches. I can only attribute this to one thing.........good drugs. Hopefully I'll be able to match those numbers soon without the use of those chemicals. Let me note here, that even with the drugs, it was pretty painful to get to that point. But I know that the only way to get where I need to be I must go through some pain.

My leg hurts about as much as it has since the surgery. In order to get where I got today they worked me pretty hard. After my last post I feel asleep, when I woke up I knew the drugs had worn off. I'll be OK in about 10 minutes....these drugs work pretty fast.

She's on a telephone marathon and I've got a f@(%ing headache. .... STFU already. I retreated to the office to get away. I wanted to watch the Celtics/Heat game but all I can hear is I could go to the bedroom and watch the game but I don't like laying down this early. She'd probably just follow me in with the f@(%ing phone. I can still hear her and I'm halfway across the house ............Aaaahhhhh! Where's the ibuprophen? Time for a benadryl while I'm at it.

I was bored today at work, got a little carnation bouquet from the radio station people for my bday, and bought myself a pink donut with sprinkles and bout the time I decided to eat it, I got busy and ended up tossing it. My ass didn't need it anyway.. Came home, did some freelance work and gonna call it an early night. Didn't sleep too well last night. Great news on your knee progress teebee....

She must be starting to forget. This headache has me a little touchy to boot. I could get a set of headphones as a backup. Good thought.
