Wow...I've 35 pages to catch up on....
I've been out of commission helping my partner through a total knee replacement. Hasn't been easy for either one of us.
At any rate...wanted to stop in and wish everyone a very happy Thanksgiving surrounded by lots of great food, and the people you love.

That's a sweet picture! And by the way, I love your avatar (actually, you've had some really cool pre-Thanksgiving ones for the past few weeks).

Thanks!

My grandfather had a knee replacement and he was out of the hospital in a couple days, in his 80s.

As for me I broke my wrist, badly apparently because I have a plate in it. Took me a couple months to relearn how to use it. My dominate arm too, well, mostly dominate arm. I finally broke my 7 year curse last year because usually I break or sprain the same wrist every 7 years.

I've never broken a bone.

Even after the 200 pound TV got dropped on all of my fingers.

Back when I was 13 (on a Friday the 13th, no less), I did this to my calcaneus bone when I caught it on the end of a diving board...

Split it open like a birds beak. The ER orthopedist (in his early 60's) said he'd never seen anything like it before.
That was some serious pain, right there.
Thankfully, I've never had anything like that happen since. I will have some pain if I stand on it too long, but, fortunately, that's about it.

My son and I got a pumpkin roll for tomorrow morning. It's our morning Thanksgiving tradition to eat pumpkin roll and watch the Macy's Thanksgiving parade. I wish you all a wonderful and WARM Thanksgiving with your friends and family.

Right back at y'all...!!!

My MIL had total knee replacement at 88 years old. She did a week of rehab in the hospital and went back to her condo alone. I think it has much to do with the talents of these surgeons.

I wasn't offered any rehab time after surgery. I had to figure everything out on my own. I could go into detail about the things one has to figure out how to do, but, just for the sake of explanation, try putting on socks when you can't bend your leg.

id switch that for this:

Lobster Bisque

I'll have one of each, please...!

There were no survivors I bet?

No remains were even found.

In other news, the supposed buyer of my camera.. simply vanished. He pretty much deleted his account to prevent negative feedback. wow.
I suppose he did not even wanted to show he was never interested in the camera in the first place.
No idea why he did buy instantly, ask for pictures, then disappear.

RIP cookies.

In second grade, I got a tooth stuck in my head

Sorry, I'm sure it wasn't pleasant, but, your delivery gave me a good chuckle...!!!

I get the feeling that you may be a little accident prone...

You can have my snow.

I'll donate any snow I get too.

Too funny.
I remember once wondering if I was ever going to pee solo again.

Aah, the memories of seeing a little hand or foot poking under the bathroom door.

Me neither.
Instead, I'll be irked all day by my disrupted tv schedule.

But to the rest of you, Happy Thanksgiving.
May you enjoy your time with family and friends, and be truly thankful for your many blessings.
