Thanks all. I’m still on restricted activity for about another 6 weeks. And still kinda weak. Doc told me that I dodged a huge bullet and need to stay on restricted activity for another month or so. I’m doing a lot of armchair exercising. That involves lifting light weights, 3.3 and 8 pounds, for 20 reps about 7 or 8 times a day. Also walking 1/4 mile 3 times per day.

Also squeezing some things to add to my grip strength. I had to quit them today. That worked too well. I had to grease my finger to get my wedding band off. Now what?

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP
