Agh, no good. Hips have gotta suck even more than knees.
As a motorcycle riding buddy of mine told me after my surgery...
There's no speed limits on the road to recovery, so ride hard!
Joan is fine, though not as post-op pain-free as we would wish but that's what percocet and oxycontin are for! She'll be in the hospital for another couple of days, thene have a rough week ahead of us when she first comes home. However, after that, it's all gonna get better. I have no doubt that she'll be dancing and hiking again in less than two months.
And I got a kilt cut out and 16 pleats sewed in the waiting room.

If it was the anterior entry/"minimally invasive" procedure that sounds about right. At 2 months after mine I was doing 2 & 1/2 mile hikes in the Los Altos hills and doing koshi nage (hip throws) on my students in the dojo. (There are trail-record pics and video to prove both.)
And I got a kilt cut out and 16 pleats sewed in the waiting room.
Excellent use of your time!!

Glad to read that things are going fairly well for Joan. It will be a tricky time for you both for a while, but I have no doubts that you both will be out and about before long. Scotland next year?
