I hope everyone has a great Halloween!
Poconos!
I just got back from an overnight trip to the Poconos with my friend. It was really nice to take a "vacation" (as we called it) and finally get out of my house and do something fun. I definitely needed it. It was absolutely gorgeous and the weather, although slightly chilly, was perfect as well. I think the best part was being able to enjoy myself and not worry too much about my knee or hips. They didn't bother me at all and I am so happy that I am finally able to take a big step forward in this long and exhausting recovery!
