4/27/07 Not doing too well today. I took the dog for a walk yesterday and my back was feeling pretty good so I walked farther than I should have. So my lower back, buttocks, thigh and calf are all painful. Not good. Sitting is not good and standing gets painful. I just can't lay down all day!! I will have to start doing the exercises PT gave me again. Otherwise things are good. I am sober, my clothes are fitting better and I am clear headed. I try to remain positive and count my blessings. It's Stan's (the dog) last day with us and considering he woke us up at 3 and 4 this morning I think I'm looking forward to him going home to his Momma. :(
