    Great idea @Jamie! Thank you. The front stairs generally aren’t too too bad as there a just a few. I’m grateful these days more than ever that we have an elevator. Lots if not most apartment buildings here in NYC are walk ups. :)

    I hear you avoiding those gradients and over all park terrain on foot seems at 2months out seems prudent @Newhip_Pol . Thanks for sharing. Looking into it a bit. So far it doesn’t seem like even the light weight ones would be feasible for me after all. My apartment building only has stairs not a...

    Sounds like a wonderfully smart way to navigate being able to enjoy your family holiday @Newhip_Pol

    Hope your ankle is all healed up now @myglasshalffull! I have seen those scooters that people kneel on. They look kinda fun yet tricky. Thanks for the health supply store tip. I’ve never used one of those. It’s good to be back to work in some ways but the more I process this convo the more I’m...

    Thanks so much for your encouragement @Layla. Yea, my current Supervisor is truly a blessing and I am so grateful. It helps take any additional and unnecessary stress out this. The one before this one would have tried to make my life hell. :gaah:So glad he moved on. Yes let’s toast to a thriving...

    Thanks @Jamie. I love the scooters made your trip so much more enjoyable! Right now, I’m not sure how well they’d work for me here in NYC. Not sure where to look for one either but my curiosity is sparked. Also, my body is actually really craving walks. Tricky part with that is that sometimes I...

    Thank you @mendogal. I have to keep reminding myself and others (outside of this forum) that I’m just over 2 months post-revision because of the 2 left THR’s close together this year… I think it kind of blurs in the mind. Absorbing your break down of what’s really going on with my body at this...

    Now your particular ‘wheels’ of choice sound especially fun @Deni444!! Glad that the light weight foldable one you found allowed you to have a fantastic day! So important to have joy in the midst of healing. I might have to look into that at some point. :)

    Lol! Thank you @Deni444. So, true. what a learning curve!! Whew… Next, week we have a major 2day event. I’ve already arranged with my Supervisor to only be on-site for half of one of those days due to my current aching muscles. Thankfully, I am blessed to have wonderfully supportive Supervisor...

    It’s official! I have joined the “over did it club” Ugh… Thankfully, it doesn’t seem to be impacting my hip much. As my current hip pain continues to decrease and is managed with Tylenol, Celebrex, icing and elevating. I am back to work full time. Mostly from home with up to 1 day in person...

    Thank you @Layla! In some ways I can’t believe that it’s almost been 2 months yet I often have to remind myself of that fact. Being in less pain this time around I’m eager to get as back to normal as possible. Yet, I do remind myself to take it slow. As much as possible that it is. Lol. Also...
