Well I just got done walking with my dog and doing my physical therapy exercises for the morning and decided to take a little break. I am a little stiff, sore, and headachy but that is pretty typical. I will say though that the walking helps me some in regards to the stiffness and soreness. My dog is also a great motivator when I am not in the mood to get out of bed cause I am all achy to get up and get moving. Thank goodness for him and for my family or I can only imagine how hard this would be to deal with alone.
