Good Monday afternoon! We left the house at 5:15 am this morning. Hubby's surgery went extremely well, but to no one's shock, the surgeon said his knee was really, really bad! I left him about 11:30. He was in his room on the motion machine and the ice machine and had just ordered lunch. They put him on the machines before he even left the recovery room. He will have to do the machines for 2 hours 3 times a day. They plan on getting him up to walk later this afternoon. He will spend one night in the hospital and come home some time tomorrow.

It was 13 degrees F when we left and supposed to stay cold to the end of the week. Glad I got all his junk in the garage cleaned out Saturday so I can pull the cab of his big truck inside. Then he can get in the house that way. There are 5 steps, but there are steps no matter which door you use! This is going to be an adventure!

So glad to hear that the surgery went well, Drac! I had no idea that they put people in his situation on machines so soon after surgery. I do hope that everything will continue in a positive direction.

We had 18 degrees on our thermometer this morning. Wishing everyone a good day.

Drac, good to hear the surgery went well and good luck with the recuperation!

I hope you all are enjoying Monday!

Yeah, this knee replacement surgery has changed a lot over the years. My sister has had both hers done quite a few years and they didn't do the machine so soon. I think with her first one, they didn't even have one - just PT!

Hi Draclvr 🙂

Glad the operation is over for your Husband and hope all goes well for him now.

And thinking about you, also !! 🤞

Good Morning connie, soot, Draclvr, Marian, old broad, Mad, Fogfighter, and everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew awaits to start your day!

Draclvr how is hubby doing? Did you get him home okay and up the stairs into the house without an issue? Soot I got to take my 4+ mile walk yesterday...it was a little warmer and just a little breeze. Today it is turning cold again and the wind will be back...I have a hair cut this morning so I won't have time for a walk and I'm too tired in the afternoon to walk.

Hope you all have a good day!

Gerry

Good Morning everyone.

Warmer here again. + 5 Celsius. But still plenty of snow on the ground.

Happy Tuesday GameBoomers

Good morning Fogfighter Gerry Draclvr Marian, OldBroad Mad and everyone.
Wonderful news Draclvr, keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers. Drive safe and stay warm Gerry...no energy in the afternoons sounds familiar. +5 C is nice Fogfighter. Gorgeous Wolf Moon 🌚 this morning on my walk. Grocery shopping today, but first WADDB!

Stay warm

Good morning, Danish, Donuts and Bagels in the Break Room. Drac, I'm glad the surgery went well. Prayers his recovery is as easy as it can be. Lunch and Netflix with a friend today. Enjoy the day and hug someone.

Once again, good Tuesday afternoon! Picked hubby up from the hospital and got him home and up the 5 steps into the house. A good friend is retired military and around during the day, so he brought in the heavy motion machine and took it upstairs for me. Then he followed hubby up the narrow old farmhouse steps just in case. Woot! Got him safely ensconced up there with his TV, bed, a chair and a big bathroom he can maneuver around in right at hand.

I've made so many trips up and down the stairs that now MY knees are speaking to me!

Good news Draclvr...glad you and husband are home and got help from a great friend!

Good Morning Fogfighter, soot, connie, Draclvr, hagatha and everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew is ready as usual!

So glad all went well with hubby's knee surgery Draclvr and he is home and you both are okay. It's going to be a frigid day today...not sure yet if I will venture out for a walk ....need to get some groceries this morning. That "wolf" moon sure is bright soot!

Hope you all enjoy your day!

Gerry
