Indeed good points Indysteel - and I do have other hobbies, I love needlework, good books and movies - but exercise makes all of my other loves pale when it comes to stress relief, mood control, and keeping my weight under control. Winter is coming, and that is a wonderful time for needlework such as goldwork, blackwork, shadow work and other styles.

We will see what the PT says Monday, it may be that he won't order me to become totally sedentary for a few weeks, but if he does it shouldn't be for that long.

Thankfully I can still lift weights and walk - though more slowly than my norm
