Not to gloat, but we're hitting 80 degrees this afternoon in Clearwater, FL. Funny how even slightly cold feels frigid when your used to 80 or 90. When the temp goes down I dream of going south... somewhere around equator. Peace and Happiness to all.

Slept decent last night even though I'm still sleeping on the couch downstairs as it's too painful to get in/out and to my bed.
Pain today is good 4/10. Get my cast off next week, then I get to start the ever exciting PT.

Well, I finally remembered to check this board instead of only the fibro one.. It is almost 7pm and I am about 4/10 today. The darn storm ruined my streak of 1-2/10 days :-( Still better than I used to be though!

Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
