When I got home from the gym this afternoon I checked on my chicken. I gave her fresh water, collected an egg, and checked on her food. She was running low so I took her feed container out of the coop to refill. I crouched down to replace the food container inside the coop. I was in a bit of a hurry to get the door closed before she decided she wanted to come outside. As I was closing the door to the coop I got up from a crouch. I got up from a crouch without pulling myself up or pushing myself up or using my hands in any way. I did it! This was a goal I had since having my hip replaced - to get up from a crouch hands free! Wow! Mission accomplished. This will make gardening, photography, chicken rearing, tying shoes for other people, traveling and countless other activities so much easier.
