Glad you are back, wingnuts'nbolts! My dad had the same surgery and now, 3 months later, is healthy, happy, active, and cane and walker free!
Congratulations on the marvelous results of your surgery!
Do your exercises!

I hope she didn't have a relapse of the flu-bug.
Maybe it's politics - the door-to-door and envelope-stuffing kind, versus the FR kind - that are keeping her busy...?
To: .30Carbine
Thanks for the hug. I do my exercises with glee. I wannabe free!

i'll bet you are right. i was trying to recall if they were having any more vacas, since she was doing her seadragon-let's-vacation-every-time-you-turn-around imitation, but i think they were done with vacas, but she did mention the election stuff. Good thinking, .30~!
