I have kind of bad news today.  Dave has had a setback.  He lost a drainage tube and has to go back to the OR today to have it reinserted.  He also has a pretty bad infection at the site.  So things not going to well today.  So I think I will wait and go to see him tomorrow.  I really wanted to go today, but thought with the surgery, it might be better to wait.  Work out this morning, not bad.  I went 8 and a half miles.  The first 5 were run/walk and the last 3 and a half pretty much walk.  My back was really hurting after the first 5 (arthritis), I think due to the bouncing. lol.  So I thought I better take it a little easy.  This is after all a marathon, not a sprint.

Dave is in our thoughts, and prayers! I hope things improve for him soon!

You truly amaze me! I can\'t even imagine being able to do the kind of workouts that you do. I really miss being able to be active like that. Keep it up, I think it\'s great!!

yes, brilliant, Marah. She amazes me, as well, Irish Poet. Are you on bp meds, Marah - the exercise helps with this, I expect? You had such high bp earlier in the year..:( ... mine is under control, it is just changing from one to the other that is a bit of a trial at the moment....bp not too low but didnt want to send it lower...:(

huggs - thinking of Dave indeed...
