Hi  Tig Bounce     Nice lake memories, good thing you had your DL and unafraid to drive alone.


LB ahhh a 3 day weekend. You need it.

Paulie  glad there's a n internet provider for that area (hopefully all will work) now you won't be so 'cut off'.  Yikes! Veggie oil attracks bears. Take care.

Ditto me getting some 'work' finished.

I am in offic e this week. Next week home with monday off. I usually take the firday off before memorial day labot day but a coupe of people already took off tomorroe. N one will probably be in office toorrow.  So ntoday, I walked the whole day in the office without my cane. nly ise it when walking outside.  Pain in knee is so much better almost gone but stiffness is still there. But I take 4 advil  Maybe over weekend I will reduce it.   and see how that goes. Saturday I am going to go and try ding the bike again  Hopefully the knee is going in the right direction

Puff ndid you hve your procedure?

Paulie,  oh my on the pocketbook but good excuse to stay another day!!!! 

I guess depending on what surgeon says I may be leaning toward  doing surgery on shoulder.  It hurts at end of day and when I use phone or type too long.  The pain isnt so bad it's tolerable. My knee pain was a whole lot worse

I have the hiccups. I figure I would share that

LB... Bike "should" loosen stiffness in knees, just don't overdo
Talons crossed

LBLAJ  change of treatment decided, LB.  There's a definite loss of function in the hip.  Change of plan is to do 2 or 3 steroid injections sets.  Want to see how much relief and for how long.  Still have the replacement to resort to.  So far pain in better; effect of injections getting better now too.   Time for a wait-and-see period.

Good Morning 

Phyl, Thanks about internet. We'll find out today. Fingers crossed.

LB, Enjoy your long weekend. Keep us posted on your shoulder surgery.

Hi Tig

Puff, Good that the steroid injections are helping your hip. I hope your wait-and-see period bring good news relief.

We're heading to cabin. Plan to return Sat or Sun. I wanted to stop by here before leaving. I'll be sure to remember my purse when returning. LOL

Take care.

Hi everyone

LB...Hope you continue to progress.  I live by 3..."What if's"

Phyl...Love your posts.  So sweet.

Paulie....Enjoy your weekend.  Sounds wonderful.  So nice you can get away whenever.  I bet you'll see many, many wild life around.  I KNOW YOU WON'T LEAVE YOUR PURSE ANYWHERE lol.  I remembef well when we went camping years ago with the girls and
left the pillows and sleeping bags for the camper at home.  We had to go back home for them after we had travelled an hour and a half. 
Oh well, "stuff" happens.

Thanks everyone for your well wishes and prayers....I still can't sit for any length of time on this chair by my computer.  Some days OK, some not so OK. But far better than last month thank God.  He surely hears our prayers and I truly appreciate them.

Well, gotta get up now.  Again, thanks to you all for inquiring about me and sending prayers.  As I say to Paulie, "Always something."

Hi Glad to see yu Jacaji!!!  Have a good weekend Paulie, enjoy for me!!!

Thanks Camper and Phyl 

I spend the week at work walking without cane wed, thurs, and friday. I went into PT without cane today He had me do 2 laps nwalking without cane.  He noticed hw I hobble but walking faster.  I saw the dr as I was walking by and told him the 5th injection did the trick for ey knees he gave thumbs up.   However, LOL it;s starting to ache now but I didnt take advil since 6am ad I just took it 1 minutes ago. Over 12 hours and a lot more moving today.  We'll see how the week takes me    

So now I am back to not sure if I should do surgery PT guy says I dont need to but good seeing surgeon.   I wonder if he just doesnt want me to feel pressured I need to.  But is it better to There is a chance to develop more arthritis than already there. I have enough arthritis.  I can lose loss of morion.  IDK.   any opinions   I have questions listed already    But I sill have 2 more weeks to keep chnaging my mind  LOL, I know not to go to my family  they wont help me make a decision.   I'm on my own on this   

[Phyl]

Wishing everyone a 'Good  Evening' and SEDs .     



LB I  can under stand your 'back/forth' on the issue. Try not ot let any one rush you into decision. Follow your gut.   I did just that on lumbar fusion 15 yrs ago.
So glad I did n't do the surgery. I have fulll asrange of motion and moderate to light pain that is remedyed with Tylenol Xtra Strength just 2 caps in the AM only.

Just get all the facts and take your time. No dr or surgeon should put you on a time limit.        Sending 🙏 's


Paulie hope you arrived safetly
