      egads.... i'm not sure if i'm really ready for this. i'll try for 300 minutes which gets me back to pre surgery numbers and gets heidi off the hook for my minutes.

      last treatment is next tuesday so i should start feeling better and better each passing day.

                  Thankies. It looks like it'll be fun. I love stability ball workouts. Heh, the only "exercise" I like more is DDR. There's no challenge for that, is there?
