Weekly Update: Dec 23

It has been over a week since the surgery.  Doing good!  I have had a little pain in the area that they did the surgery, but nothing that I can not handle.  Been walking almost everyday, trying to build myself back up to what I was doing pre-surgery.  Going and see the Doctor the day after Christmas, and hope to go back to work!  Sorry this is so short, but there will be more to talk about next week!
