Sorry for the injured folks -- I completely understand. It's no fun! I finally did a slow three-mile run on the treadmill for the first time since my quadriceps tendinitis. I couldn't believe how hard it seemed! I was just glad to finish, and my knee hurt a bit afterwards, but below the knee, not on top like before. And the pain was gone by the day after.

Glad to see you around, limewave, but sorry about the job situation. The company I work for is in CH. 11 bankruptcy protection, but so far I am still getting a paycheck. I won't get a raise or bonus, but no pay cut either -- unless of course I am laid off, and severance has been discontinued because of the bankruptcy protection, so it's "thanks for playing, now here's the door". Scary times indeed!
