Good Morning Early Birds

[emmie]

morning, Saturday already, the week has flown by. I hope that you are all as well as can be, and that your day is a good one. I finally got a cancellation for the muscular/skeletal clinic about my knee problems. I was due to go on the 30th November but they rang me with an appointment yesterday afternoon. The upshot is i have to go for a scan/x rays to see the damage, and that i have definitely got arthritis which i knew. Not sure when that will be, hopefully before Christmas.
so far so good, shame about the pain........

[emmie]

anyone have anything planned for today or the weekend?

[1ozzy]

I hope your knee issues are sorted soon Em.
Living with pain ain't much fun!
My plan for the weekend consists of stay under cover tomorrow, big rain approaching:-).

[emmie]

morning 1ozzy,

[emmie]

when you say big rain, a storm, hurricane?

[1ozzy]

Could be, thunder, lightening, very very frightening.
Sorry for quoting Freddy Mercury.
Just a heavy rain, probably a daily sprinkle in your neck of the woods.

25-30 ml forecast, that's a lot in one day here.

[emmie]

not so bad it would seem, i thought you meant something serious.....

how are you?

[1ozzy]

That much rain in one day is seriously good.
At least for me it is, some towns not far away have been flooded.
Part and parcel of living in a flat arid area.

I'm ok thanks, how are you going to amuse yourself this weekend?

[emmie]

don't know as yet, a friend in Northern Ireland will phone me this morning so will see what i feel like doing after that. Hopefully a friend and I will meet up sometime over the weekend. see what she is doing later.....

[1ozzy]

What!!
No shopping or ladies lunch?
No visit to the local?

Emmie, lift your game ;-)

[emmie]

, lunch out is a possibility, will see what mate wants to do. The pain in my knees is stopping me from doing too much walking....

[emmie]

it worried me when consultant yesterday said that very little can be done, except physio, or even knee replacement, yikes....

[1ozzy]

Hopefully there is a fix on the horizon for your knees.
Fingers crossed one day you'll impress everyone with your dancing ability, once again,,

[1ozzy]

New knees surely outweigh old worn out knees?

[emmie]

my dancing days are over, i don't think i could stand for so long, but that's life.

[emmie]

i agree but it's a big op and the recuperation time is months. How would i get up the stairs to the flat, or down for that matter..........

[emmie]

what is on the menu tonight 1ozzy, something special?

[1ozzy]

But with new knees, who knows?
Don't be afraid of having new /man made body parts.

Lots of people I know are part android.

It's worked a treat for the Kardashian girls:-)

[emmie]

it might be ok for them, but it's a life changing op...also depends on what the scan shows up. it could simply be wear and tear and if so then might have to live with it.

[1ozzy]

Tonights menu is a re-work of items I didn't use last night Em.

Gourmet for sure :-)

[1ozzy]

Well, guess you have to choose what works best for you Emmie.
Fingers crossed xx
