I’m having a total left knee replacement the end of july.
I have total bone on bone - i saw the xrays and mri - and I was told my meniscus is shredded. I didn’t know what I was looking at and I don’t know what that means...
Can’t handle the pain. Left knee hurts so bad I don’t really know how bad the right knee is.
My golf game has gone way south. Playing anyway...how worse can i get ?
You’re gonna feel so much better after you have it done!
Knee pain like that is bloody HELL!
The meniscus is kind of like a disc that is between
the bones of your knee, kind of like a cushion.
When that gets destroyed, your bones grind together.
My heart goes out to you.
The part that is hurting you will be GONE!
When hubby had his hip replaced, he was running circles
around me and everybody!
It won’t feel REAL better until after the first two weeks
but it’s gonna be SO much better, you’ll see!
P.S. Don’t push it too much playing golf, ok?
If you end up trashing your right knee too, you will Really be in a pickle!
Take it easy, ok?
You’ll be fine!

I like Elon
I adore Pres Trump
They’re both intelligent
Elons personality is what it is
Trumps personality is what it is
I believe they’ll put it together because one guy knows the art of the deal and both love America
If the don’t I’m with the guy that took a bullet for me
I’ve had both knees done, stylin.
It’s a relief to have no more knee pain. You’ll wish you’d had it done long ago.
Spunky you’re my fav fact checker I’m
all excited about something and BOOM! You give a reality check. And I DO APPRECIATE IT

Thursday did Mongolian Beef for Jeff(me tofu)
Serves 4 - jeff ate almost all
Asian-Inspired Mongolian Beef
https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1HpBq3dRMf/?mibextid=wwXIfr
Ingredients:
~~1 lb round steak, thinly sliced against the grain
~~1/4 +cup cornstarch(choice of seasonings)
~~3 tablespoons olive oil
~~1/4 c thick shred & chopped carrot
~~1/4 c onion chopped
~~5 cloves garlic, minced
~~1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced(I used tube)
~~3/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
~~3/4 cup water
~~3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
green onions, sliced for garnish
Directions:
Cut the thin slices in strips1/2-1 inch wide
Place the sliced and steak in a large bowl and add the cornstarch. Toss to coat the beef evenly.
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the coated beef slices to the hot skillet and cook until they are browned and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside. I don’t crowd the pan and repeated about 7 times.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil if needed. Add the onion, carrot, minced garlic and ginger, and sauté until fragrant and veggies softened.
Pour in the low-sodium soy sauce, water, and brown sugar. Stir to combine and bring the sauce to a simmer.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet and stir to coat it with the sauce. Cook on medium heat for an additional 2-3 minutes until the beef is heated through and the sauce has thickened.
Garnish with the chopped green onions just before serving.
Serve on rice(I use brown cooked in rice cooker with packet onion soup)
Servings: 4 servings

You may have noticed a missing title in the above. Here it is.
No golfing for you until after the surgery! Really, bone on bone, that don’t sound good.
Beef? I thought you were a vegetablearian!
This sounds like a reasonable summary of the Trump/Musk brouhaha.

Very believable report, makes sense.
I know people who have had knee replacement and are very happy they did.
For me though I don’t think I would have it done especially at my age.
Made sauce in separate pan Jeffs been. Mine pre-baked tofu
