It's actually amazing, today I'm hard pressed to even know I had surgery on Monday
I have about 99% of my movement back, the only time I feel pain is when I make a really firm fist or push my fingers back to where they won't go any farther, heck, I was even able to lift the big jug of cat food this morning. I think though the part that will take the longest to recover fully is the twisting thing, I still can't handle a door knob if it is stiff.

i'm glad to hear all of this doug... i've been away so long, I didn't even know you had surgery until after and someone said that you were fine haha.

the nice thing about the catch can/coolant combo is that extra bracket you see... its for the cruise control module... this was the main reason i went with this model because i use cruise ALL the time on my long trips

For Ellen, Doug and the cat lovers.
This is Thelma
We are going to meet her this afternoon, and hopefully she will like us and we can adopt her.
We were
this week as we had to put our 14 year old kitty to sleep.
We have had cat(s) in our home for 20+ years, and to us, a house is not a home without a cat.
We opened the paper the day after we lost our kitty and there was a picture of a cat needing a home. That's all we needed to see. I started contacting the shelters.

Morning Upstate!
The forum seems to finally be running at a decent pace again.
Doug, glad the surgery went well and your recovery is going smoothly.
Now where is the top down weather?!?

I'm sure this will get Doug's heart racing

I love that they put a classic skin onto modern running gear. To me it is so simple and gorgeous and just the right combination of cool/retro/sleeper. Too bad it is almost $200k
