    Good Morning!

    I just realized that I've gone 4 months with my running going well! I'm averaging 12 miles a week now. I want to do a half in November. Now I've jinxed it!

    Dave, how are you doing with the hand?

    Bill, still praying for you and your pain management.

    Mike, I have not gotten my kayak wet this year, but Saturday is actually supposed to be 79 and sunny. I don't have a clue how THAT is going to happen! :smile: We have not had a good weather weekend for 8 weeks now.

    Have a great day!

    Mornin'. foggy and 50 here. Might go for a hike with DD and 5 y.o. GD later.

    Dave, I hope your eye is okay, good luck there. Need to be able to see those mountaintop views.

    Water kettle is whistling. Have a good one.

    Good morning gentlemen.

    Spent an hour and a half with the eye doctor. My doctor (on the full colonel promotion list) called in the head guy (full colonel) for a consultation. The good news: they ruled out most of the really bad stuff. The bad news: they can't figure out why I would have a sudden refractory change in one eye, 27 years after my last glaucoma surgury there. The senior doctor ordered a couple more tests. Sadly, it will be another month before I can complete them.

    The hand is still coming along, slowly. I took off my brace for a quick five-mile walk, yesterday. The liner gets all sweaty and stinky, and I wasn't going to do anything to threaten the joint. I did my fingertip-touching PT for the last half mile I walked, and it was much less painful than it has been. Baby steps.

    It was 80 at our home, yesterday. Forecast is for 84, today. Then we drop back into the 50s and rain, for the weekend.

    Good Morning! Dave, glad they ruled out the bad stuff at least. No one will accuse them of moving too fast. Good day at PT with two more thrilling exercises to do each day. I am going to try to increase to a 15min "power" walk and see if my knees handle it with the exercise. At least this slow rebuilding of leg strength seems to be working. I get to go to the Pain Drs office for an appointment to renew my prescriptions and discuss how it is going with the PA. Things are cooling off here as clouds roll in and temps drop to the mid 60's through the weekend.
