TKR KathyH New Knee

[KathyH]

Thank you Toothfairy

60mom, the times when my knee feels stiff are if I am just standing for a long while, like when cooking in the kitchen. It's fine when I am walking, no matter what the distance and I'm talking about shopping, etc. not hiking Also if I am at my desk too long. I need to remind myself more often to get up and have a little walk around.

 

[Nanners]

Thats what I have to keep reminding myself about too. To get up every so often and walk around.

I find that my knees also stiffen up if I've stood for too long, like shopping for hours! I'll feel fine until I sit and try to get up, that's when I really feel the stiffness!

As far as tired, I think I was born tired, but even now after the BTKR I have to remind myself to look around, don't you see those dust bunnies taking over your home?! And, there is no way, do I do all the cleaning in one day, and if I'm forced to, that's the night for takeout for supper! I this at this stage, I just don't care about it like I use to when I was younger, it's just not that important anymore! I'd rather spend my energy on shopping, cooking or reading a good book, and... After all what's someone going to do report me to the, messy house police!

 

[KathyH]

I guess I just have to accept the fact that it will take more than one day to clean the home. I do begrudge spending the weekend doing housework when I have been working all week. I'm not going to lose sleep over it though. As you say, Jacky, there are more important things in life

Oh, Jacky, you are a woman after my own heart!!!! I could not have said it better myself. I just want to expend what energy I have now at my age doing things I enjoy---and housework is not one of them .

Won't have to even think about such stuff on your cruise---hot and cold running stewards for you and Norm!

 

[Jacky48]

Oh my, that's quite a mess there Judy bottomshollow , looks like when I had teenage kids!
Now you've piqued my interest with the "hot and cold running stewards for you", see how I conveniently left Norm's name out of that part of the message! I may have to send him on a lot of errands!

 

[bottomshollow]

Jacky48, you devil you!!!!

 

[Jacky48]

Unfortunately the man knows he has me, hook, line and sinker! I think!

 

[KathyH]

Lol, Jacky48 and here's one for the dust

 

[robynhood]

Kathy was just thinking of a good clean today cos of the bank holiday weekend. But that has made me think again. Thanks for that Kathy. Thats really good. X

 

[Jacky48]

Perfect Kathy! So, so very true! Dare anyone to clear our dust after we expire! Hey I just thought of something, when we're a pile of dust on the floor all someone will find with the dust is knees and hips!

Have a great spring weekend!

Our son, Russell and his fiance, Alice, are getting married in Brighton three weeks this Saturday. Here is my outfit, bag and fascinator. Just need to get shoes now.

[KathyH]

Thank you, Pat

 

[KathyH]

By the way, they're not my hairy legs

 

[Toothfairy]

What a fabulous outfit Kathy. You will look stunning. Look forward to pictures of you at the wedding wearing them.
I hope the weather improves for the big day.
It is an exciting time for you,
Toothfairy x

 

[robynhood]

I really hope you have a wonderful day as Im sure you will now the knee is behaving itself. Makes a huge difference.

 

[Dhare63]

Kathy, love the outfit, you will be stunning! Rock it girlfriend!!

 

[reetpteet]

Fabulous outfit Kathy - exactly the sort of thing I would choose, very classy. Love the dress, so simple and beautiful. You will look stunning. Good luck with the shoes x

 

[KathyH]

Thank you, girls We must have the same taste in clothes, Rita. Saw some lovely shoes that would go lovely with the outfit, in John Lewis yesterday. But at £135, £115 and £95 a pop - have never paid that much for shoes in my life! Okay, I know it's a special occasion, but.......... I have seen some I quite like in Next, will go and try them on next week.

Am returning the bag as it's a cream colour, . I need either black or similar pink to the outfit.
