A new body

As I was watching Samantha in dance class today (I finally remembered to take my camera so I will post cute pictures of her later) I was thinking what it would be like to have a perfect little body that would let me do anything I wanted. She is able to twist and turn and dance and stretch any way she wants with no pain or discomfort. I know she's 3 and I'm....well....not 3, but still, it would be nice. As long as I can remember I've had horrible knees that have limited my activity. Now I have 4 screws and 2 rods in my back that cause me pain and will probably limit my activity as well (although I fully plan on water skiing on Greg's new boat this summer!! So there!). I know I'm blessed and healthy so I shouldn't complain. It just would be nice to be able to walk up and down stairs without pain and not be a human barometer sensing every pressure change as storms come and go. I guess our pain management plan is to live at sea level in a rambler with no stairs. Yeah, that's not going to cost us anything!!
