docs appointment today gave me the green light for march, woot. not completely unexpected but still encouraging and put a smile on my face. i have recovered full flexion in my right arm and am down to 18 degrees on my extension. gonna be a slow and painful struggle for the last 18 degrees and i might only get 10 more in the near future, but i am essentially fully functional already which is amazing progress only 8 weeks after the surgery.
working on building back up all the muscle that has atrophied while my arm was not mobile. i can curl four pounds, w00t! 8) triceps and shoulder muscles were both obliterated from lack of use, but everyday i am getting more and more functionality. reaching overhead still is painful due to lack of muscle, but we are getting there.
uncle just offered me a trip out to copper mountain, CO with him and some of his buds in march. one of their friends bailed, money already deposited. i just need to buy the plane ticket and i'll be out west for the first time. this could be perfect timing, hopefully the date will be okay at work too.

The trip out west sounds like good timing. Hopefully the winter returns by March...
