I Went Skiing!!!!

I know that doesn't seem monumental but for me it is. My feet are so damaged from the army that for the last 3 years skiing has felt like my feet were being burned off. Yesterday I tried snowblading, with very short skiis, and wider boots and I was able to ski! It still hurt but like a 4 instead of an unbearable 12. That is on a scale of 10. I was able to ski with my almost 9 year old and that was so fun. He is amazing, just zooming down the mountain.He called me a slowpoke but i was skiing behind him to see how well he could ski. After i saw that he was fine I took off and passed him and he was so surprised! After the fun of that I came home to find out that my septic tank has backed up into my basement tub. Gross! I called the septic people and they will be out tomorrow. I guess you have to take the good with the bad. If it is between skiing and plumbing well it really is not as easy a decision as you might think.
