Thanks for all the encouragement on the journal. As usual, your support means more than you know.

We had a good day. Rob went to a myofascial therapy with Maynard and I went to the gym. I ran some errands after the gym and received a text message from Rob requesting Taco Bell for lunch. When he is asked what he wants for lunch or dinner he has three standard answers, Japanese food, Taco Bell, or pizza. I picked up Taco Bell.

Dave came home early and fixed the Wii and Rob's TV. Perfect timing because Paul and Claire came by for a visit and Rob and Paul played Wii. Rob's working on his tennis game which is quite challenging.

When I heard the TV wasn't working I asked Rob, "Did you break the TV just so you wouldn't have to watch 'The Bachlorette' or 'So You Think You Can Dance' with me?"

He just smiled. But later, when we were settling in to watch TV, Rob wouldn't relenquish the remote. So we watched "Xmen." As Professor Xavier rolled around in his futuristic wheelchair I asked, "Rob, should we get you a chair like that?"

"No. I'm going to be walking soon. I don't need a new chair."

We love his determination.
