Oh, I tried to convince him of that idea, he was having none of it. There was much fuss about the stairs since I couldn’t hold his hand…much screaming on both sides, with the end result that I poked him back up stairs with my cane, and went downstairs to make lunch and carry it up to him…it was just easier.

Sometimes the terrible twos are particularly rich in temperament, no?

Na, appreciate the offer…but my insurance policy strictly forbids surgery in the house. Those people…so picky.

With one operative knee and one (I hope) bandaged or otherwise supported knee, is upping or downing the steps on your bottom(s) a doable thing? I’ve been known to do that when breathing is really bad and I simply must go up or down a flight of stairs, and that should be a funny way to progress for Tiptoes.

Gentle hugs and healing vibes for the poor Knee…. and don’t let that nutcase with the scorkscrew within ten inches of your knee! 8^)

Ouch. If you need me, I can come over: I’ve gotten quite good at amputations with the corkscrew in my Swiss Army knife. I can take out the entire kneecap without touching anything else…

Which may not always be true with my posts.

I read: “So, those of you who know me in real life know that I’ve spent a fair amount of time in the last 5 years on my knees.”

Confused, I skipped ahead, and got lost entirely after reading “wrangling toddlers” and “rube goldberg machine”.

The post makes much more sense now that I read the words actually on the screen, and not the words in my head.
