I Did It!

The signs were there this week.  Monday was the last day I used the walker at work.  The rest of the week I used a cane.  Went off all pain medication including ibuprofin Thursday.  It still hurts when I get out of a chair, but not near as much.  And today I did it!  I MOWED THE FRONT YARD!  It wasn't near as hard as I thought it would be.  I did change the way I mowed it.  I didn't mow in a circle like I've done for years.  I moved back and forth across the yard.  That way I didn't have to go up and down the small incline of the yard every time I did a circuit.  And I only stopped twice.  Not so much because I was tired or in pain, but because I didn't want to overdo it the first time.  So the front yard is mowed,  I'll tackle the back yard next Saturday.
