  1. Tom Bihn "Shop" Bag (small) I have had this for a few months and it is great for carrying a couple of bombers or bottles of your favorite liquids along with some snacks. It has two pockets on the sides perfect for bottles. It is really light and folds down to be very compact. But after the surgery I have found this bag to be absolutely indispensable! I can hang it around my neck (the padding on the straps keeps it from hurting) and carry stuff from one place to the next (fits ipad, Macbook Air 11", bottles of water, sandwiches, etc.) Highly recommended if you are on crutches.
  2. Went for a walk (with crutches of course) down to the end of the block and back. My hip was feeling pretty good. I am definitely putting more weight on the surgical leg and not having pain. Could have gone farther but the wrists and palms couldn't keep up.
  3. ^That sounds good.
  4. I need a Traeger.

  9. We too are doing a refinance right now. We debated for a while because we already refinanced once before. The paperwork is a PITA (especially when hopping back and forth from the comp to printer on crutches) but it will hopefully be worth it. (Seems to be the only way to make money nowadays.) We are moving to a 10 year loan and getting another 1.5% lower. I really hate that you can't tell who is going to carry your loan in the long term. Our last one was bought by Wellsfargo which we liked; now, who knows.
  10. Had a few sips of Vya Sweet vermouth after dinner tonight and it made me very sleepy. Edit: Nice Mike!
  11. All approved. I'm drinking Fitz's Grape Pop.
  12. I thought that was the plan... we were all going to move in with Al.
  13. That'll keep people from stealing them.

  17. Although, if I, at 5'2" were 270 lbs, I could just be rolled down the street.
  18. I haven't had any in a week plus but I love the Vya sweet vermouth. It kinda reminds me a bit of spiced apple cider in a way but that's what makes me like it so much. However, I am not so sure I like the Torino as much as I thought I did. I might go back to Carpano for whiskey based drinks like Manhattans, etc and keep another sweet vermouth (like Vya) for other cocktails. Once I am back in the swing of things, I am going to pick up some Perucchi vermouths (they carry them at Houston Wine Merchant).
  19. Thanks Vicki. What type of allergies are you getting tested for? I need to get allergy testing. By the way, I really hate crutches and *really* hope that I can start on 1 crutch or a cane in a week. A freaked out a little earlier because I looked at the rehabilitation protocol for hip arthroscopy on my doc's website and it was talking about 6 weeks of crutches and 12 weeks without being able to bend past 90 degrees or do any hip adduction (i.e. crossing legs). I looked back at the sheet I have and it definitely is 2 weeks before weening off crutches, and only 4 weeks of limited hip flexion and no adduction. I guess that is the old protocol and they haven't updated the website but it certainly did scare me. Also, I distinctly remember them telling me 2 weeks of crutches. I don't know how people can deal with 6 weeks or more of crutches. Do you wrists just get used to being in pain?
  20. Interesting science Jim! I had a half a glass of crappy wine out at dinner.
  21. I think the K701 isn't as bad as people make it out to be. It actually sounds pretty good out of the WA5LE.
  22. Went to work for a few hours and went out to dinner. It was nice to get out of the house, but now I am a bit tired.
  23. Yep Canon is what I meant.
