Title: Well, it's that time of year
Post by: TMB on December 13, 2017, 09:09:09 AM
Yes it's December  Christmas time, Santa getting ready to make his run and I'm having YET another surgery :( 

This will be my 4th Christmas I'll be out of work for the rest of the month and through Jan due to ankle surgery.  I'll be going in Friday morning for Tarsal tunnel surgery, so NO cooking for 3 weeks min and having to use one of them cart things to move around the house.   If this works I'll have the other ankle done later but waiting to see the results of this one first.  if it does not help back surgery is the only other option and that's not going to happen if I can stand the pain for a few more years. 

Y'all be good and hope and pray everyone has a safe and happy holiday and a Happy New Year.   I'l be checking in from time to time but limited movement I will not have a chance to get on a computer.   I-phone is useless to me for the forum so I use my computers for 90% of replys and post

Y'all be good and hope Santa is good to you

Tommy

Sorry to hear you have to have another surgery Tommy.
It's not fun. I know, having just had surgery last month. I hope it will be the last time for both of us. :)
Hope you have a good Christmas & a better year  in 2018.

I just talked to Tommy. He's doing well, and is having next to no pain (unless he gets up and puts weight on his ankle, which he's avoiding). Kimmie is taking excellent care of him while he's down. 

He should be back on the forum by Tuesday.

I see a steak in Kimmie's future, cooked extra well done... with a smile!  8)

Tommy...the next time you decide to go nude-rollerskating, try to pick a paved road, so your skates don't get caught up and trip you.....

 :oOh wait....I wasn't supposed to tell how you injured your ankle...was I? ??? ::) 8) ;D :D

Get well soon.!

Hey all, so far doing good other than a 4 to 5 in incision on my left ankle.  Very little pain unless I hit it or rub it.

Went to the Doctor Monday he was very pleased with the surgery and the look of the incision.   Now not sure how long I'll be down but looks like another week being off my feet then I get a boot to start taking baby steps.

How to be cooking in a few weeks!  Till then I'll just have to enjoy y'alls cooking on the forum  ;)

Thanks for the prayers and thoughts

Tommy
