Rest... I might hop on the elliptical when I get home from work later this afternoon, but that depends on how my leg and hip are feeling. I am on IR as far as golf is concerned, I need to get this darn thing healed up and I think golfing is just adding to the problem. It will be hard but I can do it... I can run up the stairs now with no pain so that is a good sign, I think I am on the mend but not good enough to run. See ya later tonight.

Clay I'll keep hoping and praying for the best for you as you keep plugging away trying to get past the injuries. I think your attitude has been pretty great throughout this whole thing, much better than I would handle it I'm pretty sure.

Good job being patient and not rushing things as far as jumping back into the running. Since the golfing isn't working lately perhaps some more fishing trips might be in order?

Yes on the fishing trips Tom, it can only help my attitude:-) Keep up the good work, your awesome!

Hang in there Bro, you willbe back in the groove soon. And fishing will help.
