Well January did not start out the best for us. Lisa ended up getting Covid and then a few days later, I ended up getting Covid. Our first time getting Covid. It is funny that just 2 short years ago, if that would have happened, we would have thought we had a death sentence. We would have been quarantined, locked away from loved ones as they planned for our inevitable deaths. We did recover and to be honest, it was no worse than having a head cold. So my words of wisdom would be "Que sera, sera".
I have still been recovering from my total hip replacement. Recovery has been slow due to being diagnosed with I T Band Syndrome with nerve entrapment.
The symptoms I am having is that there is skin sensitivity on my thigh. I think that means there is a nerve damaged around my hip for that. Also below the knee it is completely numb. The hip itself is much better. I have ditched the walker and the cane. Still limp around though.
Surprisingly our January weather has been very mild. Much like December's should have been, which is great, because December's weather was like January's. Our local deer herd has been coming around more and they are acting more normal. We have not had any wolf sign for a long time so that makes them calmer.
They sure like to raid the bird feeders. We were not able to get them alfalfa this year due to my hip but they are looking fat enough without it. My son and his wife gave us a new trail camera. We have been getting lots of pictures of the critters. Here are a few of them.
Other than that, life goes on. One more thing, we winterized our fifthwheel and put it outside.
Now why would we do that? Tune in to the next installment.
No! Sorry to hear you have IBS. I hear it is hell one a person and those around them.
ReplyDeleteWhy on earth would you take your 5th wheel out of your heated garage? Did you hijack a Bud Light shipment and his it in there?
Not IBS! ITBS. There's a big difference. Bud light? I can't afford that or eggs. I'm not as rich as you people. We are clearing out the barn for a nude pickle ball court. I heard it is all the rage now. It was Lisa's idea to make a little extra money, not mine.
DeleteI've had IBS many times but in my case it Irritable Barb Syndrome!
DeleteI doubt that. She's an angel.
DeleteGeez, you’re January has not been a nice playmate. What will they do for your leg pain? I hope Feb. is better!
ReplyDeletePt is addressing it. It just takes longer for nerves to heal. That's what they keep telling us anyways. Thanks.
DeleteNude pickle ball sounds fun. Lol. Although I think you will be spending a great deal of money ( that you could use to buy eggs and beer) to heat the garage enough. Lol. Hopefully the PT can help with the ITBS.

LOL. The deal with ESPN fell through so we will have to come up with a new plan.
DeleteGlad to hear you’ve ditched the walking accessories. Love the last game camera shot. You’re not going to post any naked pickle ball pics on your next blog post are you? 🤣
ReplyDeleteNo pictures of nude pickle ball in the future. The dear can be funny at times.
