Six weeks and two days post surgery. I drove 259 mile to Vail, CO for my six week checkup. Docs were very pleased with my progress and I’ve graduated to the smaller knee brace and on crutch walking. Forward progress, literally!! #kneesurgery #sixweekspostsurgery #greatcheckup #500milejourneywasworthit #goodprogress #walkingprogress (at Pagosa Springs, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeUqCdGN6XszuFxiQRuPBJQAoTvRWay4N97w5k0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Our finished project today! DIY refurbishing of our glider bench that got left outside. It goes just perfect with our new entry and I’ll enjoy sitting and gliding while watching Moxy and/or our local wildlife. #diyhomeprojects #gliderbenchrestored #frontporchdecor #frontentrydecor (at Pagosa Springs, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd9_kREAz-pGhjDTh7e57-kR74C860vwX4is5M0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We went on another Sunday drive to Williams Creek Reservoir last night. Todd fished and caught five Tiger Trout. I stayed by the truck with Miss Moxy and watched her dig rocks out of the lake. On the way home we saw a low flying Bald Eagle about 30 deer, and five elk! It was our first elk sighting this year!!

Happy Mother’s Day to me! Todd got up early and made me blueberry GF scones for a before breakfast treat. Then he made me a red onion and spinach frittata while some sourdough bread was baking in the oven. We drove to the nearby lake and spent several hours. It was windy but we found a sheltered spot. Back at home Todd cooked me a beef short rib, baked potato, and broccoli dinner with some delicious sourdough toast. It’s been an awesome day! #mothersday2022🌷❤️🥰 #mamasday #gfscones #eggfrittata #sourdoughbread #lakeday #ribsfordinner (at Pagosa Springs, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdUPd6UNCtKXqaoxNXVS__wFzlMndxpsHLmqRs0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

May 6, 1954 Roger Bannister broke the 4 minute mile in a time of 3:59.6! Nobody thought it was humanly possible but he proved otherwise!! #fourminutemile #rogerbannister #trackhistory #runninghistory https://www.instagram.com/p/CdOHkbgLRk9bNXvAfQaQuW4JYFtazs8aLUBAcY0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Two weeks post surgery. I removed the steristrips last night with no problems. The four incisions look great and are itching like crazy! I used the Constant Passive Motion machine for the last time last night. My PT said I could start progressing past 90° flexion so I tried it and got to 98°!! Progress is a good thing! Forward him!!! #twoweekspostsurgery #meniscustearrepair #roadtorecovery #forwardprogress #kneesurgeryrehab (at Pagosa Springs, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdHskLFNuJ1pUiOGyHMjAOMcCE4RJtB7tTYv9s0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Surgery update: 9 days post-surgery “not so pretty” pix. Four incisions and lots of bruising all the way down to my ankle. Pain is tolerable when I experience it. I had 3 sessions of PT this week that went very well. Getting stronger every day. #postsurgeryrecovery #kneesurgeryrecovery #meniscusroottearrepair #onedayatatime (at Pagosa Springs, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc6wtqhtEZYOfHt8C3Sbjh6ZQOLHnkZUEslQ0E0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Surgery is over and they were able to do the root repair VS a meniscectomy! I’m back at our AirBnB and resting comfortably. I’m wearing. My Lazy One pjs and socks! No nausea this time! Started my Constant Passive Movement machine. Nerve block is working its magic so don’t feel any pain! Thank you all for your kind words, thought, and prayers. I’m one lucky and blessed Lady!! #postsurgeryrecovery #meniscusroottearrepair #postsurgeryrecovery #blessedwithfriends❤️ #blessedwithfamily❤️ (at Vail, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcjWBWLLZ2T3fLQ5EN_v7D6fkTmI2QgG8sKTNU0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
