My kindle is saving my sanity. Thankfully my next week is really busy. I tried to do a spin bike today - no way. Can't lean on my hand, can't wrap my hand around the bars. So ran 5K on the dreadmill. Beats the elliptical (Zzzzzz.....)

The good news is I've decided to improve my core & leg strength in the gym Pulled out my Pilates information and have set up a leg program (glutes/hamstrings one day, quads/calves the next day). So by the time I'm ready to go, I'll be a screaming monster up hills (I can dream, right?)

I'm in a splint now, so I can take it off & do hand exercises. I warm it up with hot water, do my little thumb twirls & finger stretches, then use cold water & put the splint back on. Each time I get a little better. There is hope!
