I'm 51. Sometimes I feel the old creeping in. However, I have a high motor. I will have to have surgery again someday on my arthritic foot. I wanna be active, but I have bone on bone where the big toe enters my right foot. No cartilage. Getting some new Van's tomorrow that are supposed to be comfortable.

I should probably mow my lawn today, last chance since I'm heading out tomorrow. Oddly it has not grown much in the past month, probably all this heat. It is about due though, but not crazy long. Not ridiculous hot outside either so will go decently well mowing it.

I just heard a loud sound, hard to explain what it was, I thought it was my cat that made something fall or move. But she came running into my office staring at the ceiling. I hope that's not something that somehow got in my attic. :eek: I went outside with my drone to see if I can look on the roof to see if it's something on the roof but didn't see anything. GPS hold also was not working because I was getting magnetic interfeerence from a nearby A/C unit so that was a bit of a sketchy flight LOL.

Oh that sucks. I find that tends to be downplayed but from the little I know about it, it really sounds like a horrible thing to have. My mom thinks she might be developing it in her hands.

There's all types of arthritis. Mine is the result of having a stretchy ligament syndrome. Basically, my connective tissue causes pain. Stretch, but don't give. So, walking a little off caused inflammation over time. Joint got inflamed. To compensate, the bone deforms and/or grow larger. I had surgery in 2010, but that only removed the build up. The cartilage was destroyed.I didn't want my bones fused at that joint. It would be less pain in the long run, but I like to be active. I waiting to upload my consciousness to a robot as soon as technology is perfected. :D Been watching too much Westworld.
