    Thank you all xx

    I am so cross with Mr SA. He's ruined my life. I can't do any of the things I enjoy like walking and the gym for some time. I can't even go to work. All the Xmas dos I was looking forward to :( I'll be stuck at home and how can he look after me? All through a moment of carelessness.

    The op went well but leg may never be the same again. They can't tell if I have cartilage damage yet. 6 weeks off my feet:( Thanks for updating for me Lucky :)

    Plus I finally got back to my WW goal on Thursday, no doubt that will go back on with lack of activity.

    Sorry for the rant but I am so cheesed off.

    You are quite entitled to be cheesed off, sending oodles of virtual hug s in your direction. I do so hope that Mr SA will find that with no one else to do things that he can do more than he has previously done around the house. In a week or two when the swelling has gone down might you be able to hire another buggy so that you can get out and about? Mr MM was able to push me around the shops occasionally in a borrowed wheel chair (I know this is not an option with Mr SA), but we did run into the poor dog's leg once when the spaniel lurched in another direction to talk to a lady golden retriever, luckily no harm done.

    Take care

    Feel free to have a rant.
    It is your thread.
    I would be doing more than rant.
    I would also be crying & cursing.
    Keep plodding xxx
