cherryt,I don't know how you live in that frigid weather.It's 79 here at 3:00.
linda72,Have a good lunch with your friend and that's so nice of y'all to take over her recovery.
gailru,That's too cold for me.Stay warm.
zazzles,Sunday and Monday we are supposed to get your rain.I hope it dries out for you.
Deb,Surely you don't wear a size 11.I thought I was the only one.
doordie,I'm glad kitty tolerated her first injection well.
hpeterson,How cool.
pamt,Sending healing vibes for DH
Kathy,I hope the injection went well.
I think the cortisone is helping some today.I went to Curves and the coach said to take it easy but it might help stretch the leg out.I still can't straighten my leg out & according to the doctor I won't get the mobility back I had before but I was able to use 2 of the machines involving my knee that I hadn't been able to use without my knee hurting.Now my left knee is giving me a little trouble but not near as much as the right one.

Thanks so much for all the support! The ortho was very honest with me...50% chance that this might work, and I really won't know until 3 weeks after the last shot...o-Kay. But, it was a piece of cake getting he injection, so week 1 out of the way. borntexan There are similar shots that are just given in 1 dose, so your friend was also correct. I found I had less discomfort if I wasn't too active after a cortisone shot, and was told the same for today. No question but that not exercising this weekend will be a challenge; that has become such a regular part of my life and since I don't eat my FitPoints it helps with a calorie deficit. But we all know that it's about the food, right? I'm seeing this as a chance to ready myself for knee surgery, I'd really like to see myself making good choices this weekend...so I will (see myself, that is...😜 pamthomas46 So much of life is figuring out Plan B....thoughts and best wishes continue.... DebDoesWW it was fine, hope that shoe is long gone. I get that linda72 , it just won't be my road. My only place like that would be Shreveport, and I haven't lived there since 1998. I have a few friends that I stay in touch with, but close might be a stretch these days, and I'm imagining their horror 😱 if I set myself down there with an expectation. I will be smarter to keep a watch on J when that time comes again, and I know Brady would do the same (keep an eye on him, LOL. doordie50 Glad kitty and I are both doing okay, LOL! Sadly, I was too busy not sleeping well to notice that there was a beautiful moon last night!

For all your MOON watchers, in addition to the beautiful full moon in the evening east sky, Venus was very bright in the west sky last night. Look for them tonight. You're right, that full moon is very bright! ksbruns & @beckyw2016 Hope the injections help both of you. Take it easy. pamthomas46 Good luck with DH. Glad he is making progress. Little steps.....

Stopping back after a busy Friday. Healing and good progress vibes to Pam's DH, and Kathy and Becky's knees. You two should figure out if you can put the two good ones together and take a walk three legged style. No all kidding aside...knee pain is no fun so wishing you both well.
A morning of shopping at Costco and other and afternoon of helping a friend. Iffy weather coming our way here. Looks like the incoming ice may be a bit north of us. Sure hoping so since ice is no fun.
Good luck to all out there dealing with it as the weekend approaches.
Ahh...the weekend!

ksbruns,I'm glad your injection went fine.It's odd my doctor didn't say anything about taking it easy yesterday and he told me even with the Synvisc injections and he said there are 3 of them he said I could go about everything normally. thyme2,Kathy and I could do that but I do have arthritis in my left knee as well and the dang thing was bothering me while shopping in WM.So I guess Kathy will have to hop without me.
