Small Victories

This is something so small, I don't even know if it is worth mentioning.  It could all be psychological too, rather than physical. 

But so far, every time this week, I have found it easier getting up out of the car. 

Normally I have to swing my legs around, out of the car. I prop one hand up on the steering wheel, the other on the frame of the door and give myself a good heave - including a 'hnnnhhh' sound effect at my exertion.

This week, for the first time in a long time, that hasn't happened.  I've swung my legs out, and used my arms, but now it's more of a graceful sliding up and out. 

And I'm confident this is one sign of things to come.
