Glad you got some flowers out of the deal, though I totally agree with you about the moving around thing.

I went for one of my power walks yesterday with someone who is in far better shape than I, but managed to keep up with him quite well (though I was more winded than he)..

He was giving me props for keeping up when I reminded him that four months ago I was hobbling around with a crutch, cuz my knees were in so much pain... so, I can completely relate to your celebrating your being able to move around as well. GREAT JOB, Dierdrea!..
