Bows of three fishing boats laid up on the shore in winter.

A trio of fishing boats laid up at Marie Joseph on the Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia. #winter #boats #fishing #industry #laidup #BlueSkyMonday #EastCoastKin

Watching Cagney with my iced foot! #laidup #authordown #footsurgery

Took my first steps today completely without crutches. Big step towards dumping them completely. #laidup #fb

105 degrees today at PT. Only 30 to go before I have normal flexibility back in my knee. #laidup

Looks like I'm blowing past 100 degrees on the knee finally. Feels good things loosening up. #laidup

I have been cleared to expand the amount of one-crutch-walking I am doing. Bending to 95 degrees. Starting weight training. #laidup #fb

I don't remember if I took a painkiller tonight or not... crap... #laidup

Woot! Got enough flex tonight to cut my toenails! SO EXCITING! #laidup

Getting around a bit on one crutch today. I am a machine. What's pain? #laidup #fb

Totally rocked out 85 degrees this morning in PT. I am unstoppable. #laidup

SUCCESS! Able to get in and out of my own car without issue finally. FREEDOM! #laidup #fb

I REALLY need to cut my steak knives... I mean toenails. Still can't bend down enough to my foot to get to the toes though. #laidup

Knee surgery is a great diet. Down 6 pounds in two weeks. #laidup

Funny, the hard part about trying to walk isn't the knee, but rather the ankle. #laidup

According to my brace, I nearly just hit 80 degrees! Go me! #laidup

Very happy with the amount of quad flex I'm getting lately. #laidup

Just did my first straight-leg leg lift! #laidup

Man, now that I have the compression stocking off my leg, just noticed my ankle has some good swelling going on. #laidup

Staples are all out of the knee. Doctor is not happy with how small my range of motion is though. Almost 40 degrees short. #laidup #fb

Feels like a pulled a muscle or something in my thigh at PT yesterday. That might slow things down... #laidup #fb

Very pleased with PT progress. Could be a bit further, but I'm not gonna complain. #laidup

And just when my leg is starting to feel better from the last time, the cat jumps on it again. I am going to KILL her. #laidup

Man, I really need a shave. I look like hobo Michael. Kinda smell like him too. Hmm. #laidup

Pain levels are MUCH better today. Thank goodness. #laidup

I'm sort of addicted to Fruit Ninja. Love the new Arcade Mode. My #laidup high score: 589

Today has been much better with the knee. Getting around a bit more. Shin bruising seems to be coming under control. #laidup

Swelling doesn't seem too bad either right now, except around the kneecap. #laidup

Lunch with microwave risotto, a bag of ice, and Cee Lo Green. #laidup

I LOVE ICE. #laidup

Knee to 60 degrees today. Was able to lift my foot about 3 inches on my own. Fascinated by how hard it is to do such common things. #laidup
