"Cause growing up is awfuller than all the awful things that ever were!"

 

Yes, dammit, I will be 69 years old tomorrow. Please chime in, kev, I don't want to be the oldest fuck here.

We both start with the same number. At least there’s that.

HBD in advance!

I had another follow up with the surgeon yesterday. I’ll be 6 weeks out from hip surgery on Monday. The only issue I had was some spotting from the incision. That turned out to be suture granuloma. He decompressed them and sent me on my way. I’m to keep them dry for a couple of days and follow up with a skin check in a week. It just means that it will be longer until I can jump into a pool. Everything else is going real well. I’m recovering as expected. 

I have 1 more PT appointment next week then I am all done with that. Onward.

Looks like DW will be having a knee replacement Sept/Oct time frame.

We need to get a few things aligned workwise before that happens. (Such as I am out of town early Sept, has to be after that).

 

HBD Tar Heel Mom.  Here's a platitude for your birthday:  You're not growing older, you are maturing like a fine wine.  You are without a doubt the best bottle of Mad Dog 20/20 out there.

Yeah, not the best compliment I've ever gotten. But thanks for the birthday wishes.

Ugh, cat, a knee replacement. Long recovery for your DW. Wishing her the best.
