   I am back home recovering.Pain level is up and down but manageable   
   with extra strength Tylenol. I've been walking around the house, going   
   up and downstairs, and out for a 17 minute walk in our balmy 20   
   degreeC November weather. 6 weeks Of BLT restrictions - no Bend. Lift,   
   or Twist   
   Already seeing improvement - numbness in leg and buttock pain is GONE.   
   I've been doing some light sit-down repairs - fixed my   
   eyeglasses,which required fixing my lighted magnifier - working on   
   repairing the switch on a friend's hair dryer as I sit here at the   
   computer. I've done some phone consulting - got the Lambo Espada   
   running on it's own - a couple switches to check out which the owner   
   will drop off for me one of these days. I managed to get most od the   
   wiring sorted and the dash mostly re-assembled before I went under the   
   knife.   
      
    I think it;s going to be a long 6 weeks - and the six after that as   
   well ------
