    She is. I'm trying to get her to take a long nap each day. All that healing her body is trying to do. X-Ray shows long horizontal break. Doctor says more surface exposed will hopefully lead to good healing. No major miss alignment. No surgery required. Sling for a good while. Probably 4-6 weeks. Then ease into things. I keep telling her. Don't try to do anything that will put strain on it. Or increase risk of you stumbling/falling. Give it plenty of time. I just hope she can get it healed up without injuring it again. Thought about figure of eight brace but she doesn't think she needs it.

    When I was done rebooting... I took it to the transfer station. Asked the guy where it should go and that it had a few scratches... he told me to set it over by the others. I assured him it wasn't going to be usable... he said, didn't matter. So... I enjoyed setting that clump of chit right beside the others. Ahhhhhh... :cool:

    Yesterday vs today. No new snow fell, just the wind moving the snow around.
