Thanksgiving plans

So my hubby found out today that he has a torn meniscus and has to have knee surgery. He had his choice of two different days to schedule surgery, November 21st, OR next February. Because his $1000 deductible for the year is met on his insurance and because he's not interested in hobbling around on a bad knee for four more months, he's opted to have the surgery on the 21st. So, it looks like we'll have a quiet Thanksgiving at home this year, as the 21st is the day before Thanksgiving! Guess that answers the question of what we'll be doing this year. Hopefully I'll be able to cook a turkey and all the trimmings and take care of him, too!

having a baby is a MUCH better reason to be in the hospital than having knee surgery!

A lady I bowl with had this surgury last summer..for the 2nd time...and did pretty well with it. She did have to take the summer off from bowling ( it was her slide foot os hard on the knee) but is back in true form now. Best of luck to him on the surgery and I am sure he will do well.

i'm really sorry for mike and all that surgery, recovery, rehab entail. BUT...a quiet and simple day at home with all the delicious cooking smells of thanksgiving all to yourselves sounds wonderful!

Hope all goes well with your husband's surgery.
Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog last week (a post about death, coffins, etc). I wanted to tell you how much I like your blog's title. That is so creative.
