Thank you.

Sorry to hear that.  I hope everything gets resolved / healed adequately
in the end.

I'm actually feeling quite good today.  Better living through chemicals.
(Mmmm, drugs!)

Seriously all I've had was a perscription tablet for muscular ache and
some ibuprofen to take the edge off the constant raw flesh nerves
screaming of my roadrash.  After sitting for a bit I am stiff for the
first 15 seconds, but then I'm fine.  If I have to flex my abraided knee
to any extent it reminds me again to never, ever be beside a cage with
no escape route available.  But even that is easier today.

A good nights sleep last night (again, partly assisted by the same
drugs) helped I'm sure.  Also I am working hard not to favor my knee or
pulled muscles as I know all to well what can result from that! It might
hurt, but it is a good hurt.

I've always been "in touch" with my body and aware of how it is.  I'm
happy to report that my back is no worse off than if I'd done some heavy
lifting.  It feels about the same as after Thomas and I built and
installed that 20' bridge at my sister-in-law's cottage.

Gee, that thing has got to be under a layer of snow already! Seems
strange to this transplanted Canuck when yesterday we had 80F
temperatures here in the Tampa Bay area.
