The second thing is that I no longer have a schedule, what with my release from the rehab facility and the falling apart of the insurance supported out-patient rehabilitation.\u00a0 So, as I gain the strength to do more \u2013 I don\u2019t have to do anything.\u00a0 How strange is that?\u00a0 Yes, we have much to do but that isn\u2019t the same as having to do something.<\/p>\n
