Did you get a good deal on the Titanium upgrade? I hope they gave you a good deal on labor at least!

Hey Mike, how's the injury doing? Hope you're doing good (both mentally and physically, injuries are very demanding). How did the surgery go?

Well the 9 days sitting with dis-placed was tough. I got the best surgeon in my state to do the repair- today is day 6. I'm good upstairs, enjoying my daughter's antics and being silly helps.
