But, doggie.
I’m going to need to trust it to keep weight off my foot temporarily.

Well, all I can say is be careful. And let us know how it goes. It just doesn’t seem that sturdy to me.

A little more fun than Rick's recent purchase... My watch addiction is hard to kick!

Tear in plantar fascia. Had plantar fasciitis, got a shot, did a bunch of stretches and then walked a lot more than I should have (all three of which probably contributed to the tear). This goes back to Memorial Day-ish. Podiatrist thought swelling in foot was due to a vein deficiency. Took forever to get appt with vascular doctor around travel schedule. Not vascular-related (which is good). Back to podiatrist. Finally got MRI, which identified the tear.

It's only been 2 days since I got the boot and swelling is already significantly less, so hopeful this isn't more than a month or so of wearing it.

Sorry to hear that. Glad it’s getting better.

I have sinus tarsi syndrome which is made better by a nice pair of custom orthotics.

(My only foot problem)

We are recent empty-nesters, and the kid was given a bunch of kitchen item *I* depend upon. Went to season a steak, no salt/pepper grinders. Found some nice Acai wood ones for about $20.
Went to make rice the same meal, guess what was missing? Zojurushi 10-qt on the way, should be here tomorrow.

While browsing, since there wasn't a decent-sized pan to make an omelet, I found these little Japanese-inspired pans to make the tomago, so I got a set in cast iron. Includes a wooden "spatula" just the width of the pan, and a little serving platform. Seasoning the pan first.

Yes, we have Winston (Blenheim) and Ginger (Ruby), following Patches (tri-color) and Angus (black & tan), who we had from 2005/2006 - 2017/2018.

Moved to Greenville from New Orleans and the hills here are much more work than the flat lands of Nola and the club also has some long stretches between holes. I play in a group of 50+ men and a number of them use this cart and give it rave reviews. I've seen it in action as well so I decided to pull the trigger.

I bought a Batcaddy in the middle of covid. I ordered in December to use for that high season which for here is January to April before it gets hot. I finally arrived in March. And would not hold position on a hill. Meaning if I left it pointed down hill it would slowly trundle away. Not good if a pond is at the bottom of that hill.

They said they had a fix and a week later the part arrives and doesn't fix the issue. So they sent another which took 2 weeks so now I'm already in April and near the end of season. But OK. So it arrives and it isn't the same model and doesn't have remote control. Sent it back and done with them.

I live in a 55+ community and it is a very walk able course. Would do me good to do that 3-4 times a week,
