Plateau broken!

I finally broke my plateau -- I am now -12 instead of -11! :) I am all encouraged. It is a pearly, cloudy day today -- although still quite warm and now also humid -- so it's not QUITE as miserable outside during the day as it has been all week. 100° in the baking sun is not comfortable at all. I think I'll take the kids for a walk today, and then go for one alone once T comes home. My neck is almost all the way better -- it feels fine in the afternoons and evenings, and during the night I sleep fine, but it's still a little stiff when I wake up. I'll try swimming again next week. Between now and then I'll try to fit in three or four of those long, fast, brisk walks.
