TKR Thank You - hubby has had both knees done

[tiredwife]

@madinana It smells so good already - slow cooker- big chunks of bacon, sourcream, celery, etc. His is the best potatoe soup I have ever had! You are welcome to come for dinner, might even have some grilled sourdough bread to go with it (he makes his own herbed butter for grilling bread). Love his cooking (hate the mess).

I know it is seeming too real for you right now, but you will do fine, you are well prepared!

@madinana - you beat me to it! I tend to lurk rather than post (I'm always at work or exhausted) but I'll come out of hiding for potato soup. Good luck with your surgery on Wednesday.

 

[tiredwife]

@susie09 awwwwww I have tempted the lurker out of hiding, you can come to!

 

[tiredwife]

@madinana and @susie09 I was wrong he made it on the stove not in the slow cooker and I am eating some now!

 

[madinana]

@tiredwife and @susie09 listen to her she is eating it and rubbing it in

 

[tiredwife]

@madinana and @susie09 Yep, sure am!

I love potato soup too. Maybe he will give up that recipe? So glad to read that healing is taking place.
Getting ready for PT. Two more sessions before I go back to get 2nd knee replaced. Prayers coveted.

@tiredwife you got everybody wanting potato soup guess I will go eat peanut butter and jelly sandwich

 

[tiredwife]

@Caloparker He doesn't really have a reciepe, he has been making it for so long he just throws things together. Basically it is cut up potatoe chunks, chicken bouillon and celery, onion and black pepper cooked in enough milk to cover with inch extra, cook till soft, thicken with a rue, add precooked bacon chunks, and half cup sourcream, and eat.
Hubby has his 2nd knee in August we think, much luck with yours

 

[tiredwife]

@madinana aww poor thing, want me to mail you some? Box might be a smidge soggy by time it gets there.

 

[susie09]

@tiredwife and @madinana - Now I'm envious! Usually I'm just guilty if I try to take time to post during the work day. I always have great plans to post in the evening but by the time we have dinner and I settle down on the couch with my ice-pack, iPad and Indian's game on TV, I start reading to catch up and keep dozing off. Totally pathetic!

 

[tiredwife]

@susie09 I don't work except watch the grandson, so I have a lot more time then you do.

 

[tiredwife]

@madinana @susie09 and @Caloparker This is the soup and the mess from making the soup:

 

[tiredwife]

Well, hubby came home from pt got bored and said he was going to hop on the mower and mow the yard. Guess what I caught him doing?

 

[madinana]

@tiredwife tell him Tomorrow And

 

[msmechanic58]

Looks like he's feeling good today.

 

[tiredwife]

@madinana Hubby wants to know if 94 proof counts as? He has a doctor's appointment tomorrow, I'll let the doctor yell at him.

 

[tiredwife]

@msmechanic58 Yep, but he will do his normal overdo and pay for it tomorrow.

 

[madinana]

@tiredwife he can :rolleyes: I see nothing.

 

[tiredwife]

@madinana He actually didn't drink anything tonight. He just went to bed, wore himself out. Grandson wore me out so it will be my bed time soon. I'm am getting to old to get on the floor and play cars and wrestle with a 3 year old. Getting harder and harder to get up off the floor.
