Passing through. 3:58 am. I just wanted to join Lee & Dave and see just what kind of nonsense gets them up and out of their COZY HUTCH beds?
it turnd out it’s a COLD bathroom visit! So this is what you get from elevating your new knee on top of a stack of pillows. 
Dave:
You asked about swelling…..of course it’s below my knee and to my ankles. Just not use to it in December instead of humid July - Aug!
Had a vist from the kids today (Sun) and they brought MANNY AS MY THERAPY DOG! Too funny. It almost brought me to tears how special that was. And by the way that pooch smelled out it’s Bully Sticks that were wrapped in saran and tissue and Christmas paper IN HIS STOCKING! Ye, of course he was allowed to open it and chew on one of them. Kept him busy.
Jill did a quick stop at Krogers and picked up 6 items I had on a list. Helps Art avoid going up and down aisles looking for things. His walking around takes a toll on his arthritic back! 
i too have never owned a CHIA Pet. Gotta buy one of them one day.
Missy and Jimmy and kids are on a 7 day cruise. Don’t know where to. Anniversary cruise with family. Missey said they would be watching Jenniffer very closely since she just had that bout with pneumonia. Always Something!
BILL & RITA: Save travel my friends. We might have to “sub-lease” your cubbies since you’ll be gone so long. Can’t wait to hear how the airport trip down works . Hope it all goes smoothly. Make sure to chrck in often. Love hearing about new places you’ve found to eat at or visit each year. Hope th3 Ortho Dr gave you a prescription to ease any pain until surgery time.
Okay back to trying to balance this leg on pillows and sleeping!
PT later today.
You all be safe when out and about. Later.
