My lovely wife found one of these on Facebook being sold by a lady a couple miles away. She got it,
almost brand new, for $90.

What a game changer this thing is! So much better than crutches.

Definitely makes life much easier.

So what's going on. Are/did you have surgery? How much golf are
you going to have to miss?
Doctor says he doesn't think surgery will be necessary because the pieces are not dislocated. But,
he will not know for sure until after the CT scan this afternoon. I'll see him again Monday and
he'll have the 'surgery' answer.

The foot will be in 'no weight bearing' status for 2-3 months with physical therapy to follow. That
means wearing this damn boot 24/7, except when I ice the heel. Golf is not in the picture for a
while, nor is walking the dog, driving, mowing the grass, blowing leaves, working on my boat, etc.

A real pain in the ass.
.....

Not to mention the motorcycle. If I was there I'd make sure it and the dogs got plenty of exercise. I've seen you boat. Honestly, I really don't think it needs any work done to it at all. Premium! ?

Yeah, no motorcycling either. But maybe I could motorize the knee scooter. Know anyone with a Ducati
engine I could buy cheap? I was thinking the boat could use a coat of wax for the winter. But I
guess it'll be OK without it. I reckon some WD-40 in the cylinders wouldn't hurt anything, eh?


WD-40 is the best for that.


Most of the experts I've discussed that with lately have agreed.
